Nestlé NOIR Mousse Delicate Dark Chocolate Reviews
#532 in Chocolate

Description

Celebrating a back to basics approach to chocolate, Nestlé Noir is like slipping into a favourite little black dress, it is something familiar and simplistic that evokes a sense of pleasure. This enjoyment can be directly related to the carefully selected exotic cocoa beans featured in the tablets from two different geographical origins – Ghana and Ecuador. More information here.

    One work sums it up....yum!

    This chocolate was a delicious treat. I was lucky enough to try the dark chocolate version as well as the milk chocolate version. Out of the two I preferred the milk chocolate because it was lighter and creamier. However I found that I was able to satisfy my chocolate craving with only piece of the dark chocolate version as it was much richer. The milk chocolate left me wanting more!

    I really liked the way it was packaged. Each piece comes in it's own holder so it was easy to remove from the package as well as share with friends. I found the chocolate pieces did not become sticky from touching the packaging like some bars do especially as the weather starts to warm up.

    I recommend this product and will purchase it again when in need of a chocolate fix!

    I'm normally not a big fan of dark chocolate. But I liked the Nestle Noir Mouse Delicate Dark Chocolate. It had the bitter dark chocolate taste, but not too bitter and the mouse inside was smooth and tasty. I like the texture of the harder chocolate shell compared to the creamy center. It was a delight to bite into. The size of the pieces was just enough to get a taste and satisfy my sweet tooth with just one.

    I was disappointed with the packaging, although pretty and well presented, I wonder what happened to the days of reducing waste. There was way too much plastic and paper for the amount of product.

    Overall, a great chocolate for dark chocolate lovers!

    Thanks Product Review Club!!!

    I received this alongside the milk chocolate from the product review club. I prefer dark chocolate to start but these were definately a better choice than the milk. The dark chocolate shell along with the dark inner filling were fantastic. They were rich and I often found having just one (maybe two) was enough to satisfy my sweet tooth. These chocolates reminded me of a truffle, the way they melted, tasted and the texture overall. I would definately recommend them as a nice treat once in a while and for those of you who are dark chocolate fans they are a must.

    I received these chocolates through the product review club. I'm not a fan of dark chocolate, however these taste great! I would recommend them to anyone! The package they came in was awesome. I loved the little flap to close them up and keep them from going bad. Thanks Chick Advisor!

    This chocolate was truly exceptional. Despite the fact that Im not a huge dark chocolate fan, I LOVED this! The packaging is extremely convenient, although the box was hard to close at times, and its very aesthetically appealing.
    The chocolate itself is made of a hard shell and mousse inside for a perfect combination of crunchy and smooth. It melted in your mouth, and was delicious.

    Id recommend it to anyone, however share it with friends? Not this time- this one is all mine! : )

    I grow week in the knees for dark chocolate, so I was really excited to try the new Nestle NOIR Mousse Delicate dark chocolate. I was very happy with the portions. It makes a delicious treat to top my summer ice-cream with. I wasn't too please with the dark chocolate though. It was too sweet for my liking and I could only taste the faint bitterness that I love after waiting a while. But to keep in mind, it is 52%. Aside from the taste, the texture was as advertised. Very very moussey and not too much of it too which was great.

    The milk chocolate I found was tastier and more true to what I had hoped for and none of that grainy stuff some chocolates have.

    I think if you're just looking to satisfy your little chocolate cravings, this is worth running to the store and buying.

    Tasked with the difficult job of rating chocolate for the product review club, I'm pleased to report that my taste buds and palate were up to the challenge! Reviewers were asked to sample both the dark and the milk chocolate 100g versions of Nestle Noir Mousse Delicate (10 pieces per box).

    What's Advertised:
    Arouse all your senses with Nestle Noir Mousse Delicate: a unique and intense dual-sensation of deliciously light dark-chocolate mousse enrobed in a shell of decadent chocolate. Shaped with the contours of your mouth in mind, each perfectly portioned piece delivers great pleasure.

    SEE: the lustre of the intense dark chocolate shell
    SMELL: the rich aroma of cocoa
    HEAR: the soft break of the shell as you bite into it, releasing the fine dark chocolate mousse within
    FEEL: the light, creamy, real mousse texture melt in your mouth
    TASTE: the intense dark chocolate combined with subtle flavour of vanilla

    Repeat for continued pleasure..

    The Real Scoop:

    The product is being launched at a great time, as consumers scale back on purchasing discretionary luxury goods like imported chocolate, the product fills a niche between run-of-the-mill chocolate bars and expensive $50 boxes of chocolates.

    The packaging is a sleek, elegant looking box that flips open to reveal 10 chocolates that are nestled in a gold tray. There is a rich feel to the experience, which begins when you lift the gold foil away from the tray to reveal the smooth individual chocolates.

    At 52% cocoa, the dark chocolate does not have the requisite bitter taste that is found is dark chocolates with higher cocoa content. The end result is a pleasing chocolate that feels like an indulgence to bite into, with light mousse inside. It is a smooth chocolate and although it does not rival chocolates from Godiva or Maison du Chocolat, it is a mass-market product that is well worth the $3.99 price point.

    Of the two products, the milk chocolate mousse tastes a bit too sweet, but this dark chocolate version has a pleasing smooth taste. I imagine the purported benefits of polyphenols in the cacao as listed are negligible but it is a bonus. I would not consider this a "fine chocolate" however, it is a nice tasting chocolate at a reasonable price. As it is pre-portioned, it would make a nice little treat to share at the office.

    I received this chocolate as part of the product review club in both the Milk and Dark chocolate varieties. I was intrigued with the Mousse filling as it would be interesting to see how the different textures would affect the experience.

    The quality of the chocolate is acceptable but I found the mousse to be more spongy versus airy and creamy than what I was expecting. I prefer the dark chocolate variety more. The taste is smooth and I find that the hard chocolate and mousse filling compliment each other very well making the experience very rich and satisfying. I have to admit that the chocolate is not as high quality as Lindt or Michel Cluizel but it also isn’t as pricey either.

    However, the packaging is impressive. It comes in a deep set box with each chocolate in its own little compartment. And at $3.99/box, it's quite reasonable. The chocolates are rich so that you won’t be able to eat the whole box in one sitting.

    It's more expensive than your typical candy bar, but the mousse makes it different and they are pre-portioned so you can just enjoy one piece at a time. I think Nestle has hit a good niche – somewhere between regular candy bars and imported brands with a price point that reflects it. And the dark chocolate variety does taste rich and smooth like some of the higher end brands. I would definitely recommend it.
