After many taste tests conducted with the co-founder of Scharffen Berger, the author concluded that these were the world's finest:
Eclat Chocolate (liquid caramels)
Enstrom's (almond toffee)
Guido Gobino (Tourinot Ginadujotto)
La Maison du Chcolate
L.A. Burdick
Pralus ("Pyramide" Chocolate Square stack)
Recchiuti (Burgundy Box)
Valerie

I recommend the article for all chocolate lovers. Title of article is "Dark Victory."
