Chocolates might be great; shipping was less so; customer service is great
By Shannon A. Montgomery
While it was shipped to me insulated in styrofoam, no cold packs were included in the shipment--which was heading to Atlanta in early September (the American South in the summer). I assumed that since I was paying over $20 for shipping--the absolute fastest time, greater care would be taken to ensure that the product arrived intact. Unfortunately, the chocolates I received were largely melted. I do not recommend the purchase of this item to be shipped to any region experiencing temperatures above 78 degrees.UPDATE: Received an e-mail, which read (in part) as follows: First, my apologies for not answering you earlier... I didn't notice there was a melting issue with your order till late last week while addressing a small more recent delivery problem. Anyway, as you have noticed with your order, melting can and does happen in transit, but luckily only with an insignificant number of our packages as we only experience about two dozen or three dozen a year out of well over 15,000 packages. Insignificant when view in percentage terms, but still most infuriating when this happens.The e-mail went on to note that they are replacing my order. I am stunned--I have had a melting issue before with a different chocolate company (remember, I live in Atlanta, Georgia, where summer temperatures are a bear), and I received nothing in the way of satisfaction. I figured it would be the same and didn't even bother to directly contact the company (a mistake on my part). I am *very* pleased with this level of service.

Perfectly Delicious
By Rebecca of Amazon
If it is possible to fall madly in love with a box of chocolates, then the assortment is the perfect place to start such an adventure. These chocolate are named after Leonidas Kestekidis, who definitely knew how to create chocolates for the true chocolate connoisseur.When he moved back to Belgium he not only married his true love, he created chocolates the world now adores. When you taste these chocolates, your taste buds will also finally know true chocolate happiness. Whether you try one of these with a cup of coffee or tea or enjoy one as a daily indulgence, these will impress.The "I Love You" chocolate with dreamy lemon filling embodies this sentiment. Each chocolate has a unique design and the I Love You chocolate has two hearts, ribbons and a seal. After you sample the variety of chocolates, specific flavors will stand out as favorites.Here are my favorite creamy fillings (ganache and butter cream) which come in dark, white and milk chocolate depending on the selection:Antoinette - A smooth Brandy flavored ganacheLingoit Lait - Absolutely delicious vanilla flavored fresh butter cream filling. Time definitely stopped while tasting this chocolate.Irrésistible - Dark chocolate and Strawberry sauce.For ever - If you love coffee this may be one of the most delicious milk or dark chocolate chocolates ever made as it is filled with a special coffee cream that has hints of caramel. I ordered an entire box of these and they come in a variety of flavors. The milk chocolate and cherry filling is like Claude Debussy's Rêverie. It is difficult to describe besides saying it is like a delicate cherry icing wrapped in milk chocolate.Merveilleux - Milk or dark chocolate filled with coffee ganache.Europe - Dark or milk chocolate filled with rum filling.Ganache - Milk or dark chocolate with pure ganache.Tosca - Milk chocolate with a special ganache.Poésie - Dark chocolate and a Cointreau filling.Antoinette - Delicate caramel hints in the milk chocolate coating mingle nicely with the vanilla filling.Eve - Milk or dark chocolate with a creamy dreamy banana filling.Alexandre le grand - A milk or dark chocolate with caramel cream.Also Recommended:If you wish to also try the Napolitains, I'd suggest the 1 pound sampler Ballotin with six varieties. You may also want to look for the new Palet d'Or. A deeply delicious and strong bitter chocolate filled with ganache. The center is made with butter, cream and chocolate and the outer coating is a masterpiece with gold decorations.Leonidas now has over 1700 stores and sales locations worldwide and they offer over 80 varieties of fresh chocolates. The chocolates are air freighted weekly from Brussels so you will always find the quality to be superior.My chocolates arrived fast and were as fresh as if I had purchased them in Belgium. They were carefully packaged in the famous gold boxes with signature/seasonal wrapping and a ribbon. The boxes were then placed in protective Styrofoam containers to protect the chocolates during shipping. The expedited shipping is recommended from May to early September.~The Rebecca Review

Creme de Creme
By M. Wernow
I lived in Leuven, Belgium for 8 years and tried many a chocolate. Leonidas is the creme de creme, that is, the best of the best. Especially their Framboise Praline is an Epicurean delight if you are a dark chocolate lover. Also, their plain dark chocolate medallion is outstanding as an addition to a freshly brewed Tully's espresso. Amazon, you provide a number one global service by bringing the best of Belgium to the US. Thanx,Heironymus de Medina (aka Jerome)
