Lon and I are not a big fan of chocolate and orange paired together, so when I was given a Terry’s Dark Chocolate Orange
, I was reluctant to try it. I’ve heard of it’s popularity but still didn’t think I would like it. I finally opened it today.
First, I love the packaging design. It’s a bit small to see, but it says, “Whack & Unwrap”. I think you are supposed to slam the ball so that the segments break apart. As you can see below, I was hesitant in my whacking, so only a few pieces loosened.
You eat the chocolate in segments, very cute and perfect for sharing.
I have to admit, I like the taste. It is a bit sweeter than I expect of dark chocolate but the orange oil is balanced nicely so that it is not over-powering, and the texture is smooth enough, resulting in a product well worth it’s very inexpensive price (under $2).

Not sure if they still make them, but they were making a dark chocolate raspberry for a while with the same whack/unwrap principle. Also, I’m a fan of how each segment is decorated to look like a real orange segment.
With raspberry, the segment design doesn’t make sense.
I am trying to get some chocolate orange for a girl I really like, is there anyone that knows where I may be able to find it in New York City. I live in Manhattan. Any help would be great. =)
I feel so sorry for you guys! These things are readily available here in the UK – I can only imagine what crusading for chocolate oranges can be like.
i love these. i always wait till after Christmas sales and get like 5 for 50% off. if anyone needs to know where to find them still (3 years late) i see um in either cvs or rite aid i forget which
I used to put these in the Christmas stockings, but the price is a little prohibitive now, they’re over 3.50. Getting them after Christmas at half-off is a great idea. One year I did find the raspberry, in both light and dark, as well as one that was just chocolate. Worked out well for our family–everyone got something they liked. I’m in the midwest, and usually can find them around the holidays at Kroger, Walgreens, Meijers, and Walmart.
