Fruit creams, fruit gels and white chocolate are all gross to me.
I like a coffee ganache or nice toffee.

With a map.
Because otherwise we'd have Steve touching and sniffing each one and Linda slicing each one into quarters and posting tiny toothpick signs of the flavors and me taking a bite and leaving what I don't like
I think I am not ever going to eat fro the communal box of chocolates again, thank you for the vivid detail. Taking a bite and leaving the rest--are you an ESFJ, by any chance?

Best - raspberry cream, orange cream, salted caramel, mint anything
Worst - chocolate covered almonds, nuts in general unless part of a caramel turtle, anything coated in white chocolate.

Worst - coconut and fruit creams (tie)
Best - turtle, choc covered cashews, ganache and pralines, salted caramels
Most polarizing??
I'd nominate coconut. Love it or hate it, hardly inbetween (I hate it)

For me….
Best is plain milk chocolate.
Worst: Anything with actual Cherries or soft/oosing

My favorite candy in the world is the one with the strawberry-print wrapper and the gooey strawberry syrup inside, the one that our grandmothers always set out in a crystal dish on special occasions.
Anything with coconut or white chocolate is an abomination.
Agree with all of this. Give me your fruit creams and cordials. You can have the coconut and white chocolate.

Best: Coconut (Sometimes you feel like a nut...)
Worst: The really hard one you almost break your jaw trying to bite into.

Best - all of them. I might have some I prefer, but I appreciate the merits of each one.

OP here, wow i was not expecting all the coconut hate! More for me,
I suppose
Do you guys go with the chocolate map or do you have another method for selecting the right candy? Eg if you are a coconut hater what do you do if you get a coconut truffle?
