Top 10 Best Chocolate Brands

In the world of fantastic chocolate brands, there are so many amazing options out there it can be overwhelming trying to decide which one deserves your hard-earned chocolate budget.

Everyone has their favorites, of course. Some swear by the classics with their time-tested recipes, while others seek out the new, artisanal chocolate makers experimenting with unique flavors. Maybe you're a dark chocolate purist, or perhaps milk chocolate with a playful twist is more your thing. No matter your preference, there's definitely a chocolate brand out there ready to become your new obsession.
The Top Ten
1 Lindt

Lindt's more commercial chocolate bars are actually quite ordinary, with cocoa usually over-roasted and sometimes too bitter. However, the limited editions and higher quality bars they sell in the Lindt stores are really smooth and nice. The Lindt store has some killer pralines and stuff as well.

Lindor is also an amazingly crafted chocolate with a molten creamy centre, but the novelty has kinda worn off as the years go by. It's still the number one chocolate brand in the world, taking over Cadbury and becoming the chocolate giant.

I would love to see a planet made entirely of sweets, especially Lindt chocolates! Smooth, creamy rivers of caramel and other filling varieties coat the land, luscious lollipops standing proudly as trees, strawberry laces hanging from the lollipops as vines, houses made of tempting chocolate. If only such a place existed.

2 Cadbury

The best chocolate company in the world. One of the oldest chocolate brands, and so many delicious, original sub-brands. Cannot go wrong.

For me, Cadbury beats them all, even Lindt. Cadbury has such a creamy texture and sweet flavour that lasts and lasts. I'm fortunate enough to live in Bournville (the area where the factory is) so constantly walking to work and smelling Cadbury in the morning every weekday for 30 years is a slice of heaven and Cadbury World is like nothing you Cadbury lovers have ever experienced. The history, the culture, the free chocolate. It's perfect. Cadbury will always be number one for me, always.

I have grown up with Cadbury's, and I can honestly say that it is one of the best, tastiest, creamiest, most amazing childhood chocolate bars of all time. I pop a square in my mouth and instantly my mouth floods with water... CADBURY'S IS LOVE! CADBURY'S IS LIFE!

3 Ferrero Rocher

Why. Why. Why is this third place? Lindt is great, but it doesn't even come close to the rank of Ferrero Rocher. These luxurious chocolates will have you sprawled out on the bed with the classic boxful balanced on one hand, golden wrappers strewn all over the place, as you twist each one in your mouth, dissecting the flavor, twisting it this way and that, a lilting dance, feeling the Ferrero take you into its arms for its sweet, sweet embrace. The hard nut cover, break it through to find the fragile chocolate shell. And inside, a sweet nut nestled in the arms of warm, liquid chocolate. Even the name is just gorgeous. What could be better? Lindt? Ha! No way!

I like how you can buy a whole box of these things. Any chocolate that contains hazelnuts is wonderful, and the ingredients they put into these chocolates are to die for.

I'm starting to crave some now, but I don't have any.

Ferrero actually makes more types of chocolate than the well-known Ferrero Rocher (though that one is hands-down my favorite), and all of them are ABSOLUTELY delicious. Ferrero wins by a mile.

4 Hersheys

The best milk chocolate for adults has less of the milky taste. Hershey is better because they put more cocoa than milk in the milk chocolate. In comparison, Belgian milk chocolate is so milky, it diminishes the flavor of the cocoa bean into a kinder-type taste. Yuk.

Hershey has been my favorite out of the American brands, followed by Cadbury. Nestle doesn't come close.

Hershey's should totally be number 1 because it is super yum! I hate Lindt and think it's the worst chocolate brand in the world, so I cannot believe it is number 1. Plus, everyone should listen to what I say because I am half royal, half normal.

Hershey's is really tasty and has so much variety. Originally, I thought the Kisses tasted like vomit, but that's the Hershey's flavor, and once you get used to it, you actually love it.

5 Kinder

Do you like the normal Kinder eggs with a surprise? How about Kinder Bueno? Or those small chocolate eggs with white chocolate and almonds inside? (which I have not seen in over a decade but who cares). And what about Kinder Maxi?

You want them, don't lie to me, son!

This is one of my all-time favorites. It's really tasty and sweet. I'm eating it right now.

6 Thorntons

Cadbury may be my favorite 'eat anywhere' chocolate. But if I really want to treat myself, it's Thorntons all the way.

Thorntons is the best chocolate ever with proper ingredients, no vegetable fats!

Thorntons is by far the original special chocolate and the best!

7 Nestle

Nestle has all the best chocolate!

They're so good! They also made Snickers. I'm pretty sure they're so good.

8 Toblerone

Toblerone is really rich and is without a doubt a really amazing Swiss chocolate. The nougat adds a really nice touch!

Toblerone is the best chocolate ever!

Toblerone is also a very good brand. My favorite is Lindor, but I recommend trying this too.

9 Galaxy

Galaxy is the best because there are ranges of Galaxy bars and everyone loves them! And if you're reading this, then you're going to love it as well!

Galaxy is incredible chocolate. When you just put it inside your mouth, the taste that comes is extraordinary.

So delicious... sorry, but I think Hershey kisses taste like puke. Galaxy cookie crumble, mm...

10 Ghirardelli

Ghirardelli is one of the BEST chocolates I've ever had in my entire life, hands down. I'm surprised Hershey's beat Ghirardelli. (No offense to Hershey's lovers, of course). The luxurious chocolate squares...YUM.

Their dark chocolate flavors are so smooth and refined, achieving the perfect balance of flavors. Their cocoa is definitely high quality. Very tasty chocolate.

Ghirardelli milk chocolate, when compared to Lindt, Hershey, Dove, Ritter, Brachs, and many others, was superior. I do find it difficult to find bars in stores.

The Contenders
11 Milka

Milka is among the richest chocolates. What's better is the flavours are like desserts altogether! With flavours like toffee, hazelnut caramel, and other rich, creamy, and decadent fillings, this chocolate is one of my favourite milk chocolates altogether.

Milka is a great chocolate brand, possibly my favorite. There are so many flavors, from ordinary Alpine milk chocolate to fruit yogurt fillings. Most of the cakes in my town are made from Milka chocolate. You won't be sorry if you taste it. It's delicious.

I've been comparing it with different chocolate brands and...I think this needs a lot more recognition! Far better than Lindt, honestly, and with the different flavors (peanut caramel especially), it can't be beaten. Also, very cheap for its quality.

12 Mars

Mars is my official favourite. I'm pretty sure that this was my very first chocolate ever. I've always loved Mars ever since I was little, and I still do today. Yeah, there may be chocolates way better than Mars out there, but to me, Mars is a classic and will always be #1!

I love Mars. I request all the Mars employees to give an attractive color packaging for chocolates. Thank you.

Mars is much better than Hershey. My favorites are Twix, Milky Way, and M&Ms.

13 Toffifee

It was such a hard decision to choose between this and Ferrero Rochers, but Toffifee is amazing! I love the creamy texture and yet the crunch in the middle - I could probably eat a whole box of these!

14 Twix

Twix are amazing! By far, they are the best chocolate brand I know, having several textures for you to enjoy in one bite. Twix are the absolute best chocolates ever.

My sister and I are twins and we eat Twix!

15 Belgian

People only seem to know the famous brands like Cadbury and Toblerone, but there are loads of other brands out there that are way better!

Yes, there is a brand named Belgian. It's still really nice though.

All Belgian chocolates are the best in general!

16 Godiva

Godiva is one of the best chocolates in the world! I have to say I am surprised that Hershey's beat Godiva because Godiva is chocolate that is filled with delicious fillings inside of the chocolate. Godiva is way more expensive than Hershey's because it's a better chocolate than Hershey's (my opinion). I have only tasted Godiva chocolate 3 times, but I absolutely love it!

The rich and creamy taste of Godiva is the best thing ever. I get sick of eating a Hershey's bar if I eat too much, but I never get sick of Godiva.

This is the best brand in the world. Hershey's is a cheap and low-quality chocolate brand in the US. It is so funny to put Hershey's on the list. Selling more does not make it a quality brand.

17 Aero

Aero! It's quite nice. I like how it bubbles in your mouth.

Don't eat Aero if you have a phobia of holes though.

The bubbles from Aero tickle my tongue!

18 Snickers

I have got to say that Snickers is the best chocolate in the world. The caramel and peanuts are so good too. It is way better than Mars, which is the worst chocolate in the world. When you put Snickers in your mouth, it tastes like heaven. The salt makes the taste even better! You can get them in different sizes too, unlike Mars, so I think Snickers should be at the top.

19 Guylian

100% the best tasting chocolate ever made! The seashell praline chocolate is unbeatable - you can eat a whole box instantly and still want more.

Amazing pralines and mini chocolates! The milk chocolate, being Belgian, is really amazing, no doubt.

I am craving chocolate, so I come here, and as soon as I see Guylian chocolate, I get the shivers.

20 Ritter Sport

Ritter Sport offers great tasting chocolate in a compact shape with many varieties. It's my favorite.

Ritter Sport is the best brand after Lindt. Hershey's is disgusting. I don't know why it's on here.

Ritter Sport is wonderful. It should be in the top 5!

21 Fazer

Fazer is a beautiful creation and one of Finland's treasures. Its milk chocolate just blows your mouth with its awesome taste. It is wonderful how something so simple and plain can be so tasty. It has so many variants, but the original and loved Fazerin Sininen is the best chocolate ever.

Fazer is so good, and I can never get enough of it! Especially the plain milk chocolate. Then there are so many other types of chocolates that drive me crazy, like the white chocolate & milk chocolate, dark chocolate, Geisha, yummm.

The quality of the chocolate is amazing! Fazer has so many different flavors, it's always hard to pick only one chocolate bar.

22 Milky Way

The combination of caramel and nougat makes Milky Way the best brand.

23 Whittakers

Out of all the plain milk chocolates I have tasted, Whittakers Creamy Milk is the highest quality. It has a nutty flavour and is just softer than any other chocolate I have had. It really warms you up.

I think its their 5 roll Swiss Refiner that makes the chocolate so smooth. Utter bliss.

The Dark Ghana Almond flavour is also extremely satisfying.

The chocolate is really nothing close to being cheap. It doesn't have the same cheap flavour as Cadbury or Lindt milk.

Whittakers was first place in the chocolate industry, closely followed by Cadbury in New Zealand's main brands. Then they started developing Cadbury in Australia and thus began the downfall of Cadbury. Now, Whittakers skyrockets ahead of every other brand, especially with their milk chocolate flavour. It excels in all categories. Cadbury is garbage!

Tried most of the rest, not the best in the world but up there. People who think Cadbury is good are probably chain smokers with no taste buds.

24 Dove

Dove is so much better than Hershey's chocolate. It's so smooth.
