I am very picky when it comes to chocolate. I eat mostly high end more expensive chocolate (e.g. Purdy's). I was excited to try the Brookside chocolate bars. Thank you so much Chick Advisor for the product review opportunity!
I like mango and coconut so I expected to enjoy this chocolate bar. The quality and taste of the dark chocolate is great. However, I did not like the mix of mango and coconut with it. It tastes ok while chewing but I did not enjoy the aftertaste.
I would not buy this chocolate bar again (however I love the cherry/pomegranate and blueberry/almond chocolate bars).
I received three brookside chocolate tablet bars in exchange for my honest review, and although this one was my least favourite, I would still buy it just because it's such an interesting flavour. I loved the texture - it had some crunch while still being a smooth dark chocolate. I really liked the portion and I thought the wrapping was adorable - definitely a good sized compared to other good quality chocolate bars I buy. The price is competitive with other bars in the same category. However, there are no other chocolate bars out there with flavour like this one. It's super fruity and crunchy.. and coconut is one of my favourite flavours. I will very likely purchase this if I am to see it at my local grocery store.
I just love anything with coconut and mango. Do find a chocolate with both flavors I was in heaven. Having it with dark chocolate I wasn't sure how it would taste since I am a Milk Chocolate person. But trying Brookside Dark chocolate with coconut and mango was so good. It wasn't bitter or didn't leave a aftertaste in your mouth. And I didn't have to eat the whole bar to feel statisfied. I think I have found a new favourite bar.
This chocolate bar smells like summer! Seriously once you unwrapped it your submerged with a sweet coconut smell. Once you bite in it, the mango taste is so fresh and delicious. I love how Brookside can create delicious flavoured chocolate and how original it is everytime

I tried the Brookside Mango Coconut Crunch chocolate bar. The size was a good portion, the texture was smooth and the flavour was just right, although not my favourite.I shared my bar with the other members of my family that do like mango and they absolutely loved it. I didn't feel like I had to eat the whole bar in one sitting to satisfy my chocolate craving (which is a good thing!). The quality of the chocolate and it's flavour was at a premium level. The flavour is unlike any other premium chocolate I've had before, in fact, I have not seen this flavour in a tablet form before.
I would definitely consider buying this chocolate as a gift to someone (perhaps for Valentine's Day).
The Mango coconut was my least favourite of the three bars received. Not sure if it was the fact that neither flavours were strong and it it seemed like a hint of mango but it was ok.
The chocolate had a mango essence - you could smell it and taste it. My husband had a bit and craved more for the rest of the day. It also had a good balance between crispy and chewy.

I enjoy the Brookside products and often bought them from Costco before receiving this to try. This was the flavor I was most excited about since I love mango, but I was slightly disappointed with it. It was still a good chocolate bar, but the mango taste wasn't as obvious as I would like and the coconut left a bit of texture, but also was a bit too subtle. I think this bar had a lot more potential but it ended up being quite boring. I would personally pass on buying this flavor again, even though the chocolate quality is quite good.
This bar was my least favourite flavour out of the three I tried. In my opinion the mango flavour was too overpowering. Nonetheless, the chocolate is still Brookside's decent quality, good tasting chocolate. The texture is also very pleasant, a mixture of crunchy, chewy and smooth.
I tried all 3 new flavors and this is by far my favourite! It has a lasting and intense mango flavor that I love. It pairs so nicely with the rich chocolate. I am instantly addicted.
