Product Description

Amazon.com Review

This lovely gift basket is a chocoholic's dream come true. Packed with a large variety of chocolate treats, just the thought of it may send recipients into a sugary trance. The only problem is what to eat first? The two milk-chocolate and two chocolate-caramel squares are a great place to start--or save them to garnish ice cream or crème brûlée at dessert. The 10 ounces of milk-chocolate drops, 10 ounces of mint-chocolate drops (in a collectible Ghiradelli tin), and 2.5 ounces of nonpareils are wonderful nibbles at any time, and they make a lovely addition to baked goods as well. And if that's not enough chocolate, there's still the packet of double-chocolate hot cocoa mix and three 1.25-ounce chocolate bars--one plain milk chocolate, one with almonds, and one with crisp. Long after all the chocolate has been devoured, the Ghiradelli keepsake tin and 14-1/2-by-11-1/2-by-3-1/4-inch basket will be around to bring back memories of chocolate heaven. --Maile Bohlmann

3.0 out of 5 stars A very nice gift basket, but pretty pricey, December 30, 2002
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Wine Country Ghirardelli Gift Basket (Kitchen)
Distilled to its essence, what you have here is a little less that two pounds of Ghirardelli chocolates, in various configurations, a nice basket, and a bow. Ghiardelli is decent American made chocolate, though hardly gourmet quality by European standards. Still, this would make a nice gift.

So the question becomes, how much is two pounds of Ghiardelli chocolate and a basket worth? Surely it's not worth the list price of this basket, at least not on the basis of contents. You could assemble the same basket yourself for probably 1/3 of the list price. But that's not really the point...If you're looking at this basket on Amazon, you're looking for something nice to send as a gift. This is a nice looking gift that would be sure to bring some pleasure to a chocolate fan.

I'd rate the basket a high 4 stars for appeal, and 2 stars for value. Call it 3 stars on average.

4.0 out of 5 stars Chocolate Heaven... at a Price, January 4, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Wine Country Ghirardelli Gift Basket (Kitchen)
I love this basket, I really do. It is filled with assorted fine quality chocolate and includes an anniversary keepsake tin. The basket is not the best quality, and there isn't a whole lot of chocolate, so the list price is kind of steep, I feel. That is why I could not give it 5 stars. Other than that, it is a lovely gift, and a very tasty one too.

Wow. There is a _lot_ of chocolate in this basket. Enough to make many batches of chocolate chip cookies. All of the chocolate was well packaged and tasted yummy. None of the chocolate had that "white bloom" so you know the chocolate was fresh and well preserved. I'm in chocolate heaven!
