Weirdly many of the products we've been sent were not chocolate but tools, toys, or ingredients. That really narrows down the list, doesn't it? But still we had some very good chocolate to choose from.

The brand we picked is one that has sent us products for two years so we've gotten a good feel for their range of products from bars to pralines and covering the full spectrum of chocolate from white to dark. We haven't loved everything they have sent but when you get to test a wide range you understand how a company approaches chocolate, and chocolate is something this brand does very well. Beyond chocolate they are attempting to educate their buyers and the general public about chocolate with a blog, a historical section of their website, and the creation of some very lovely videos. They are a newer player in the industry and so you may not know them except through our blog or if you live in their home country of Germany. We have been honored by their trust of our test and writing about their creations.

Our 2015 Best Chocolate is: Chocion! Please leave comments below to congratulate them!
