I had the opportunity to try this chocolate bar courtesy of ChickAdvisor. I had a couple of friends, as well as my husband try it with me. Two of us chose this as our favourite of the three flavours that we tried, and the other two enjoyed it very much as well. I am really excited to have discovered this new flavour! Coconut with chocolate has been a long time favourite of mine, and I never could have imagined what mango would add to the mix! It's brilliant really. I will buy this again!

I was exited to be chosen to be apart of this taste testing. The chocolate bars exceeded my expectations. I liked them all!!! My favourite was the Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bar in Tart Cherry Crisp with Pomegranate Flavour. My second favourite was Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bar in Blueberry Almond with Açai Flavour and my third was Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bar in Mango Coconut Crunch. Eating them was a true joy and I will be buying tart cherry soon! The first time I tried the Mango Coconut Crunch I tried it along with the others and didn't prefer it to them. A couple of days went by and I tried it on its own and enjoyed it much more. The smell is wonderful and reminds me of the tropics. Would be nice with a fruit wine or spirit.

PRODUCT REVIEW - BROOKSIDE CHOCOLATE BARS

Chocolate has always been a comfort food to me, and until I tested Brookside Dark chocolate bars I didn't care what the bars I ate were.
And then I tasted BROOKSIDE chocolate bars!! AMAZING - I will NEVER go back to random bars!!
Made with dark chocolate (a more healthy chocolate), and coming in multiple flavours, Brookside bars will undoubtedly become many people's bar of choice.
I have tasted these bars 1.) TART CHERRY CRISP - with POMEGRANATE flavour'.
2.) BLUEBERRY ALMOND - with ACAI flavour
3.) MANGO COCONUT CRISP

I LOVE EACH AND EVERY ONE! When you take off the package, the tinfoil underneath is beautiful and resembles gift wrap - a delightful surprise. And then you taste the bar...smooth delicious dark chocolate, and then the wonderful taste sensation of the fruit inside. In fact, though my husband WASN'T a fan of dark chocolate before - now he is! I almost had to negotiate to get any of my bars back.

I received this product for free to review - regardless I fell in love with Brookside Dark chocolate bars.

Of the three Brookside bars I tried through the Product Review Club, this was probably my favourite. And that's saying something because I love the other two almost as much. The quality of the chocolate is really good, and the mango and coconut make me feel like I'm in the tropics. And the crunch in the bar gives it that extra edge when it comes to texture. I was always a huge Lindt dark chocolate fan, but I think Brookside has surpassed this to number 1 on my list. This was my husbands favourite flavour and I'll definitely be buying the Brookside Chocolate Tablet Bar in Mango Coconut Crunch again very soon!

This bar was a delite! I love the nice crisp with a bit of a chew. The flavours just flow together with every bit. The dark chocolate is creamy and full of flavour that matched the coconut and mango nicely. This is the best afternoon treat ever! Ever so glad to be pick for this chick advisor taste test because this is totally my new go to chocolate. It pairs nicely with my white tea.

I can honestly say this flavour of chocolate bar surprised me. I really thought it wouldn't be a good combination. I am happy to say the flavours really work well together, the coconut gives a nice crunch to each bite and the mango gives it some chew. None of the flavours are over powering and the bar isn't overly sweet.

I need to say that I have tasted a great deal of chocolate during my life. However, this bar was like heaven. Absolutely amazing!
Firslty, the packaging is perfect. You cannot feel anything through the wrap. Everything is conserved and you get it all when the package finally gets open.
Secondly, the main note is mango. The aroma is distinct and bright. You recognize the base right away. However, with the first bite comes a crisp. It is not tough and reminds of rice crispies. The chocolate itself is dark and extremey good, not too sweet. As for the quality, it is classical Brookside which translates into 12 out of 10.
Great for a gift, sharing or secret snacking!
Loved the mango and shared with my mom!

This chocolate bar had the most flavor, by far. The mango coconut combination worked really well together. The mango was so intense, but in a 'leave your mouth feeling happy' kind of way. After the initial burst of mango, you could taste the coconut. Normally when there's coconut in something that's all you can taste, but not with this chocolate bar. Even the dark chocolate didn't stand up to the mango flavor.

The dark chocolate itself was so smooth and creamy, and not at all bitter. Normally I don't like dark chocolate because of the bitterness, but this was so good!

You could tell when you had a piece of the chocolate bar with mango in it, because the texture was a bit chewy, but not tough at all.

This mango coconut chocolate bar brings both the slight bitter flavor of the chocolate together with the sweetness of the mango and coconut to indulge your sweet and healthy tooth.

I'd definitely recommend this flavor, and brand!

I thought this was a bit of an odd combination but wow! The smell is wonderful and I love the taste. It has a perfect blend of flavours. I think I found my new favourite chocolate bar!


I received this free of charge in exchange for an honest review.

I really enjoyed the taste and texture of these bars. The mango and coconut blend together to provide a sweet finish and charming crunchy aftertaste. The orange foil and outer cardboard wrapper do make the bar seem premium. It does not taste waxy like other Hersey products do, but just like dark chocolate should.
It would make a really nice gift for someone, or even for yourself! :)
