Actually, now that I think of it I only tried one chocolate bar in the US and it was a small Dove milk chocolate bar. It tasted like wax and a hint of chocolate. Ew. I remember thinking it tasted weird and that I recalled Dove bars being better than that... maybe it is due to how they are made in the US vs. how they are made in Europe. Interesting.
Redlemon you could try and look up a European chocolatier and order it over.
Here's some ideas:
Luxury chocolate gifts delivered in the USA - La Maison du chocolat
-(There is a store for these on Madison Avenue in NY)
gourmet french chocolate from richart - richart us online boutique
-great French brand
Boutique en ligne chocolats du Maitre chocolatier Jean-Paul Hévin, artisan chocolatier, vente en ligne de chocolats haut de gamme, livraison en France et à l'international.
-a renowned French chocolatier
Amedei - Cioccolato da degustazione, fondente, al latte, chuao, porcelana…
this guy is considered to be one of the world's best chocolatiers
Amano Artisan Chocolate -- Chocolate Handcrafted To Perfection
-possibly the best American chocolate, apparently
If you can't get anything more 'homemade', I'd also go for the Cadbury.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
