Brought 6 different blocks and all of them are absolutely delicious. Best dark chocolate I've tasted. Customer service is also very friendly and prompt. I'd happily recommend Federation Chocolate to family and friends and will be ordering more in the future.

And such a great range of different and unusual flavours. We wanted more to share with friends when back home - and Maurice had them to us overnight! Amazing amazing service!

Fantastic Chocolate!
June 15, 2017

I tried some samples at the Salamanca market and immediately bought three bars. I am a chocolate "nut" and have tried many, many types of chocolate. This is honestly the best chocolate I have ever had. I am back in the US now and am rationing my 1/4 remaining bar to little nibbles, it is that good. I have even looked into getting it shipped here but shipping cost ($50) is prohibitive. Federation, please consider selling on Amazon--you are the best chocolate ever!

Dear John
Wonderful to hear from you. Thank you for such an encouraging and positive review. We are so very glad you have enjoyed our chocolate so much. We love chocolate and the pleasure it gives people.
I wish we could get more chocolate to you! If you contact us via email with the chocolate you would like we will do the best price we can. We have a number of overseas customers that do this regularly.
I will also look into being on Amazon, I think that is a great idea.

Thank you again for taking the time to let us know how much you enjoyed the chocolate we very much appreciate you and your support.

AUSTRALIA'S BEST CHOCOLATE
May 25, 2017

Best sugar free chocolate I've ever tried, buying online is always super easy. I was introduced to your product through a friend and now I'm addicted!

Dear Nadia
We are so glad you have enjoyed our sugar free chocolate.
When we started making our sugar-free chocolate we wanted a chocolate that people wanted to eat wether they needed sugar free or not and it took some time, some late nights and lots and lots of tasting for us to be satisfied with the recipe.
Getting the flavour and texture right were very important to us and we are excited that you love the end result.

Thank you so much for taking the time to let us know how much you love our sugar free chocolate we very much appreciate you supporting our family business.

Truly the best chocolate!
May 10, 2017

Made just a few days before purchase, the chocolate was truly worth the cost (which isn't cheap). The sugar free dark chocolate is beautiful and doesn't have they strong bitter aftertaste that usual dark chocolate does. It is incredibly smooth and irresistibly delicious. Moving on, the next to reach my palate was the creme brûlée fudge. Wow! This is great. You only get four bits in a packet, but that is all you need. It is delightfully rich without being overwhelming. The Turkish Delight came out next and was also very yummy! Last but not least the caramel nougat, which I couldn't stop going back for. I usually don't like sugary things, hence the sugar free dark chocolate, but this, my oh my, is the essence of my being. Thank you delicious magazine for leading me to this oasis. The great service was also an added bonus.

Easter

The best chocolate ever thought the rum and raising could have been more rum would definitely recommend will be buying more chocolate from here

Dear Sheryl

Thank you so much for such a lovely review. We so appreciate your support by purchasing from our family business.
The rum and raisin chocolate is an interesting one to get the balance with as we use real rum (From a famous Queensland rum business ;) and not an essence which makes the rum milder in flavour but richer in contrast.

I am so glad you have enjoyed the chocolate and look forward to hearing from you again.

A long way for a block of chocolate to travel, but well worth it... lovely chocolate only lightly flavoured with licorice/aniseed.

Dear Greg
I am so glad you have enjoyed the Liquorice Chocolate. I do love making this one as the smell of licorice surrounds the factory pulling in people to watch us make it.
Thank you for talking the time to review our chocolate and we hope to hear again from you soon.
