Nestlé NOIR Mousse Delicate Dark Chocolate Reviews
#536 in Chocolate

Description

Celebrating a back to basics approach to chocolate, Nestlé Noir is like slipping into a favourite little black dress, it is something familiar and simplistic that evokes a sense of pleasure. This enjoyment can be directly related to the carefully selected exotic cocoa beans featured in the tablets from two different geographical origins – Ghana and Ecuador. More information here.

    I am IN LOVE with this chocolate. I am a huge fan of dark chocolate to begin with, but this chocolate is just heavenly. The shell is just perfect – delicate yet just enough solid chocolate. The mousse inside is to die for. It is exactly like eating mousse and its incredible to me that they were able to capture that so perfectly in a chocolate. In short, I will most certainly be buying this again, and I recommend it to ALL chocolate lovers. Dare I say it, even if you don’t like dark chocolate I think you will be happy with these mousse squares because they are not too bitter.

    I had these on my desk at home and it made me so happy to know I could come home from work and have a decadent little treat waiting for me. For this joy, it is definitely worth the price (not that it is expensive to begin with).

    As some other reviewers have mentioned, the box is a little fiddly, but once you figure it out it does keep the chocolates sealed quite nicely. Also on the topic on packaging, I do not think it is excessive at all.

    I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked this! The mousse tastes delicious. Try it! Even if you don't usually like dark chocolate. Dark chocolate is known to be a healthy option!

    This is my first time trying this chocolate thanks to the product review club...I am not a fan of dark chocolate, so I was kind of skeptical of trying this one... but I honestly couldn't get my hands off this chocolate. Never knew dark chocolate can taste so good- AND dark chocolate is supposed to be good for you, so that's a plus right there.

    I received the Nestle NOIR Mousse Delicate Dark Chocolate through the ChickAdvisor product review program. Thank you ChickAdvisor...I needed my chocolate fix!

    I was excited when I opened up the box and found a gold tray of individual chocolates, 10 pieces just waiting for me to savour. The box had a flip top but I couldn't figure out the tab and so I couldn't close it properly.The box had the following messages:

    "Arouse all your senses with Nestle Noir Mousse Delicate: a unique and intense dual-sensation of deliciously light dark-chocolate mousse enrobed in a shell of decadent chocolate. Shaped with the contours of your mouth in mind, each perfectly portioned piece delivers great pleasure."

    SEE: the lustre of the intense dark chocolate shell
    SMELL: the rich aroma of cocoa
    HEAR: the soft break of the shell as you bite into it, releasing the fine dark chocolate mousse within
    FEEL: the light, creamy, real mousse texture melt in your mouth
    TASTE: the intense dark chocolate combined with subtle flavour of vanilla

    I dove right in and tried the chocolate.Yummy! I liked how it was hard on the outside and creamy smooth and moussey on the inside. The mousse just melted in my mouth as I savoured each bite.
    This dark chocolate was not bitter at all and had a pleasant note of vanilla.I had another while I offered one to my husband. He said it was pretty good and he is not a dark chocolate fan.

    The price of $3.99 is well worth these 10 chocolately treasures.
    I would recommnd these to friends for sure.

    This chocolate was truly exceptional. Despite the fact that Im not a huge dark chocolate fan, I LOVED this! The packaging is extremely convenient, although the box was hard to close at times, and its very aesthetically appealing.
    The chocolate itself is made of a hard shell and mousse inside for a perfect combination of crunchy and smooth. It melted in your mouth, and was delicious.

    Id recommend it to anyone, however share it with friends? Not this time- this one is all mine! : )

    I got this through the ChickAdvisor product review program.

    This has to be one of the best chocolates I've had in a while! It comes in a little box (about twice the size of the Lindt chocolate bars), with 10 delectable pieces of chocolate in a little tray. Perfect for sharing without having to break a bar into several pieces. It comes in milk chocolate and dark chocolate.

    The chocolate piece consists of dark chocolate with a dark chocolate mousse centre. The dark chocolate outside has just the right amount of crunch to contrast against the smooth mousse. I'm more of a milk chocolate fan (which is why I gave this one less star on taste), but this chocolate isn't anywhere near as bitter as some other darks out there (cough...Lindt...cough). And the tray and box system makes it easy to put the chocolate away for multiple chocolate fix opportunities ;-) I read a few reviews on the milk chocolate one that said the box doesn't stay closed, but I haven't had any problems with that.

    Would I share this with friends? This one I would because I can't eat a whole box of dark chocolate (while I would probably keep the milk chocolate as my little secret), but as I said in the other review, chocolate fixes are always best when shared!

    I was very fortunate to receive this Nestle Noir Mousse Delicate Dark Chocolate through the Review Club because I fell in love with it! I was very impressed by the packaging! I was also very lucky to have tried this because normally I am not a fan of dark chocolate, I find it too bitter...but this - was different! It has a rich taste and literally melts in your mouth with you bite into it. I love the mousse! As the name states - it really is delicate! So good that my boyfriend wanted the whole box to himself! This chocolate has now won me over any other! It's worth a try!
    And because it's rich in cocoa, you actually feel like you're eating something healthy lol

    Wow. I didn't expect a mini box of chocolates. The packaging was cute, although, they should consider adding a tab to close it.

    The taste - velvety smooth dark chocolate heaven! Made with 52% cocoa, you don't have to be a dark chocolate fan to enjoy these bite-sized wonders. I like putting the entire thing in my mouth and letting it melt. Love it!

    Got this from the product review club.
    I personally love Dark chocolate (makes you feel like you are making a better, healthier choice :P) but sometimes I can't stand too much of the bitterness. It might be because it has a much lesser concentration that what I usually eat, but it had just enough of that dark chocolate bitterness to make it great. The mousse melts wonderfully in your mouth, as does the rest of the chocolate. It isn't too pricey, and actually somewhat fun seeing as they have these 'steps' inside the cover on how to fully experience your first taste of the product. In my excitement, I didn't realize that the product is to be opened on its side, and has a tab that you pull to 'close' the package, though its really hard to once you start.

    i love love LOVE this chocolate. was surprised with the packaging, as i thought it would be like a regular bar chocolate, but similar to that of a box of chocolates. these are one-bite wonders, the mousse inside reminds me of eating molten lava cake. simply delicious! just try and not finish the entire package in one sitting.
    can't wait to try the milk chocolate next!
