Title: Lindor-alike chocs in Poundland
Post by: kevvosa on November 15, 2006, 11:31:45 am: Today I bought a bag of foreign chocs from Poundland, they're called Rosso Blu and taste exactly like Lindor! They are ball shaped chocolates like Lindor with creamy fillings. There's a hazelnut praline filling and a white chocolate cream filling.

They're absolutely lush Smurfy, I think you might like these. They're very good value for a pound as a bag contains as many chocolates as a box of Lindor. They're made in Italy.

Post by: smurfboy on November 22, 2006, 03:16:33 pm: I suppose it's the kind of company that takes the stock it can get, so perhaps sometimes there isn't enough to sell a product nationwide.
