Its chocolates used to be available solely in its own stores, but today you'll find Thorntons products in most supermarkets and discounters, as well as in its own and franchise stores. Crunchy Praline: Hazelnuts and crispy wafer in milk chocolate, covered with white chocolate, dipped in milk chocolate, and topped with roasted almonds.

Lifting the lid, I'm greeted by a sweet, buttery, creamy aroma. Underneath the copper cushion pad – with the words "pass the love on" repeatedly printed – is a tray of 24 chocolates. A menu card provides details of what each one is: Minimum life based on 'use-by' date of product. Average life based on last week's deliveries. Life guarantee shown based on delivery tomorrow with the Life guarantee starting the following day.

It's a bold claim so when the opportunity arose to review a box, courtesy of an edible gift from a friend, I jumped on it. l.mporfcR;li>teu9dco17oeuvig,i(di(dicb.open(atnfe7infe7infe7infe7infe7Lpak-t-fer{si0o?pk-hte8rtrs-ec9kkatLpakng-topbaconeut-fera weor-cytolor:i9kkfc-{p#p0xt5olof?pk-hte8rtrs-ec9kkatLpaknpphofvsn8rtrs-ec9kkatLpakng-topbaconeuakyg36"Xosyd.ferryChi.1.(BOO->JB ng-lefty,"ak.cport":5&8kyg36"Xosyd.ferryChi.1.(BOO-Mosyd.fe from a wext"Xrext-neutlo/,hrr:#b1hss=ing36"Xrext-v9yChi.pserext-neutlo/,hrr:#b1hss=ing3}cmpm-&0vig-f?uv _Gkkk-xlc/mn)f-4{ppm-sotk-xlkaiu36"Xosyd.ferryyd. rr:#b1hss= href5(BOO->Jx7"ngechocns.com/mediknpphofvsn8rtrs-ea44scssssiceo,oeu%hoofcR;li> Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Cocoa Mass, Dried Skimmed 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤, Vegetable Fats (Palm Kernel, Coconut, Palm), Dried Whole 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤, Glucose Syrup, Anhydrous 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤 Fat, 𝐇𝐚𝐳𝐞𝐥𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐬, Butter (𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤), Whole 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤, Lactose (𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤), Dextrose, Double Cream (𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤), Humectant (Sorbitol Syrup), Fat Reduced Cocoa Powder, Invert Sugar Syrup, Emulsifiers (𝐒𝐨𝐲𝐚 Lecithin, Sunflower Lecithin, E471), Rice Flour, 𝐀𝐥𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐬, Maize Flour, Flavourings, Dried Whey (𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤), Salt, Strawberry Powder, Acid (Citric Acid), Sea Salt, Colour (Beetroot Red), Dried 𝐄𝐠𝐠 White, Cream (𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤), Exhausted Vanilla Seeds, Acidity Regulator (𝐒𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐮𝐦 𝐇𝐲𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐧 Carbonate), Hydrolysed 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤 Proteins, Our Chocolate is made with 100% Cocoa Butter, 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤 Chocolate contains: Cocoa Solids 30% minimum, 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤 Solids 20% minimum, Dark Chocolate contains: Cocoa Solids 48% minimum

On the rear, the marketing chaps have gone to town, with imagery of ' The Chocolate Kabin' from 1911, a chocolatier, and a photo of somebody tempering chocolate by hand. Rather than explain what's in the box, the bulk of the text again draws on Thorntons' heritage, with words such as 'crafting', 'passion', and 'expertise' explaining why this is a box of chocolates to give somebody you love. It's powerful stuff too, with a catchy slogan of 'pass the love on' to boot. The rear of the box with chocolate making imagery The words "proudly crafted in the UK" sit beneath graphics of each of the chocolates in the selection box. A store-front doodle sits underneath this, with the words "established 1911". From a marketing perspective, this is nicely done as it draws on the brand's heritage while affirming its Britishness, despite the brand now being part of the Italian Ferrero Group.

Mint Crunch Dark Chocolate Block (90g)

Honestly, I'm not sure who's favourites these are, but they aren't mine. There's a lot of caramels, fudges, and toffees in here, with Strawberries and Cream standing out as the only fruity flavour. Perhaps most people like the sweet caramel flavours in their selection box, and if you do, this is a selection that will have you salivating. If you prefer fruity flavours, or more Mediterranean flavours inspired by the delightful produce of Italy, you might want to look more towards the Continental range. Inside the chocolate box
