How do you like your chocolates?
 
I like my chocolates at room temperature :) Not cold and hard. I like them soft and easy to chew or melt.

Can't taste it when it's hard :(

How about you? do you prefer them after they are refrigerated?

[edit~~ Room temp = semi-melted.. sorry people :)]

maleficent 02-19-2005 04:44 AM

How about a choice for not liking chocolate at all... :D

itch vaccine 02-19-2005 05:05 AM

You don't like chocolates?

oh my gosh~! That's wrong!!

eribrav 02-19-2005 05:41 AM

Fine chocolates are meant to be enjoyed at room temperature. Refrigerating them dulls them and can cause graininess.

Now there's nothing wrong with a frozen Milky Way or Charleston Chew though!

I take everything at room temp :) toblerones, ferroro rochers, after 8s, lindts,

my source of aphrodisiac.

I'm a huge fan of Ice Cubes. They're about the size of a medium ice cube, 3/4" cube. Just let them sit on your tongue and melt (from room temp). There's a slight hint of cinnamon, I think. Whatever it is, it's awesome. I usually found them at the candy stores in a mall, but I haven't looked in a while.

cyrnel 02-19-2005 09:21 AM

Ice Cubes rock.

But any chocolate is wonderful given the right setting. Preferably slightly melted, at body temperature, running down my gal's midsection... :thumbsup:

Ice Cubes get their signature taste from ground hazelnuts, believe it or not.

I like my chocolates room temperature...something smooth and creamy please.

Demeter 02-19-2005 01:24 PM

I like them plentiful and in easy reach.

Rodney 02-19-2005 01:31 PM

Room temp; semi-melted was the closest the poll would allow. Chocolate melts at body temperature; the fact that it dissolves in your mouth is one of its charms, since this process allows you to enjoy the flavor to its maximum. Cold chocolate has an interesting texture that some like, but you miss the fullness of the flavor.

High-quality chocolate can be refrigerated for many months with no loss of quality, and I have done that; before eating it, though, I allow it to sit out and warm up to room temp.

ryfo 02-19-2005 02:41 PM

i like it from the fridge so much more so when it has a caramel (or any) soft centre it sort of makes the caramel last longer and when you have it with coffee well heaven must be within reach lol

Fantastic. One more reason to like hazelnuts.

lurkette 02-19-2005 03:20 PM

I hate cold chocolate - it tastes all waxy. Give me soft, yielding, velvety dark 80% cocoa solid chocolate and I will melt on the floor for you.

Stan Fields 02-19-2005 04:26 PM

I only ever eat room temperature chocolate, although I remember eating refridgerated Aero bars as a kid.

I definately don't eat any fine or high quality chocolates, so my opinion may be meaningless.

Oh my gosh mal...I think we have our first compatability issue! I was going to say that itchy left off a choice for liking ALL chocolate! :D Well I'm not ready to call it quits yet but this one rocks the foundation here...:lol:

IC3 02-19-2005 05:52 PM

I like them hard..I don't like to chew it, So it melts in my mouth..Plus it lasts longer that way.

Don't eat much chocolate..But that's how it's done when i do.

Carno 02-19-2005 06:42 PM

You should have added an option for firm. I don't like melted or even semi melted chocolate, but I don't like refrigerated either. I like them room temp.

Powderedmaggot 02-19-2005 06:44 PM

I like them cold & hard, dark and bittersweet with no shit in them like crspies, nuts.... Just pure chocolate. Mmmmmmmmm chocolate [/homerdrool] Toblerone would be awsome if it didn't have all that crap in it. As it is it is pretty damned good but imagine it with out the crap.

itch vaccine 02-19-2005 07:38 PM

I wanted to make the options simple to distinguish ... so semi-melted here refers to room temp :)

Sorry for that, Carn.

Grasshopper Green 02-19-2005 07:56 PM

I like room temp too. Melted is too messy, hard is too...hard. Loses its flavor.

I'm the same way. I dont like chewing chocolate either (unless it's like a Snickers or something where I have to), I prefer just letting it melt.

howdydave 02-20-2005 06:11 PM

Cold and hard... either semi-sweet or bitter-sweet

hosti|e 02-20-2005 06:35 PM

I hate them semi melted or melted. I work in a chocolate factory and if theyre coming down the production belt like that, theres something wrong :|

Sorry for that, Carn.

Ahh.. oops.

vbuser 02-20-2005 07:27 PM

I like them to melt in my mouth, not in my hands. :)

Jonsgirl 02-22-2005 10:33 AM

I like them best with caramel.

BadNick 02-22-2005 11:17 AM

I like em at room temp around 70F.

I just had a box of these http://www.neuhauschocolate.com/ since I visited Belgium and bought them before leaving for home. They were some of the finest chocolates I've ever tasted.

mazagmot 02-22-2005 12:38 PM

neuhuas looks like good shit. May have to try it out.:p

Cynthetiq 02-22-2005 12:47 PM

i like them all the different ways possible... each has it's pros and cons.

guthmund 02-22-2005 02:23 PM

I like chocolate in all forms. I'm an equal opportunity conoisseur.

However, I do have a slight preference for hard, cold chocolate, but only if it's dark chocolate.

I'm shocked you have to be the first person I have ever heard of who does not like chocolate.

Me I'd like a large order of chocolate covered chocolate

I worked at a chocolate factory years ago and I know what you mean. We would run-off 3 tons per shift and if the temper of the chocolate wasn't just right, the product would end up as a cold wet glob. The girls at the end of the line would freak because it made such a mess. :D

I'll take a nice piece of Belgian bitter-sweet at room temp thanks. :thumbsup:

whocarz 02-24-2005 01:55 AM

I like my chocolates how I like my women, cold and hard....

Wait, that doesn't sound right.

Cervantes 02-24-2005 02:02 AM

Cold and hard so you can hold them in your mouht and feel them melt.. mmmmm.. Love it.

Amnesia620 02-24-2005 02:29 AM

Chocolate a la cherry, Minte a la blah blah Chocolate

Can't taste it when it's hard :(

How about you? do you prefer them after they are refrigerated?

:love: Chocolate :love:

I like them at room temperature - My teeth are sensitive to cold. I am not big on dark chocolate - I like milk chocolate. I really enjoy mint: like Peppermint Patties or Andes; I love chocolate covered cherries. :D

little_tippler 02-24-2005 05:36 AM

I LOVE CHOCOLATE ANY OLD WAY - IT'S CHOCOLATE...MMMMMMMMM :crazy:

inharmony 02-24-2005 06:14 AM

Love it frozen! But I'd eat it any way...YUMMY!

vbuser 02-24-2005 07:26 AM

Has anyone thought about vanilla-bars?

Personally, I prefer Vanilla over Chocolate in ice cream ;-)

pinkie 02-24-2005 08:03 AM

My favorite chocolate is dark chocolate dipped candied orange peel.

Room temp, or cold... :thumbsup:

Scorps 02-24-2005 09:08 AM

Cold and Hard, but if I just buy them from the store and need my sugar fix It doesn't really matter. Just melting is to messy.

id have to choose that option also :)

I don't understand how you can "not like" chocolate

:( that's just wrong :'(

hambone 02-25-2005 09:25 AM

room temp is ideal. cold and hard loses taste to me, and melted is too messy.

gremlinx8 02-25-2005 09:48 AM

I like them cold and hard-- after they've been in the freezer for a while. That way I can suck on them for a while-- so good.

hunnychile 02-25-2005 06:31 PM

I love chocolate, it's my 2nd favorite drug of choice!!

Those of us lucky enough to live in the Bay Area get to purchase and indulge on See's Chocolate, a "Happy Habit". Way better than Godiva or most of those other highly marketed brands.

Oh & room temperature is the best....
(Those tasting "waxy" have fillers & aren't pure chocolate = cheap stuff) :(
