Dear NRI relatives, I know I’m a grown up now, but please don’t forget to get my chocolates. I don’t know about y’all but I’m definitely still the kid who pleads her NRI cousins to get chocolates every time they’re taking a trip to India, instead of perfumes, sneakers or make-up.
On World Chocolate Day, we’ve curated a list of all the chocolates that are yet to make their debut in India, but until then, we can always convince our NRI relatives to smuggle our stock.
1. Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Milk chocolate and peanut butter? I think I just died and went to chocolate heaven.
2. Butter Fingers
A Simpsons favourite and an all-time classic.
3. Harrods Belgian Milk Chocolate Gold Coins
The only coins we’d religiously take care of and regret losing.
4. Smarties
I never knew there was something better than Gems until I tried Smarties.
5. Merci
We need to thank you for existing, Merci.
6. Million Dollar Milk Chocolate Bar
What’s the similarity between money and a million dollar bar?
7. Maltesers
Chocolate covered malted milk treats are a winner.
8. Turkish Delight Chocolate
Probably the only Turkish experience I’ll be able to afford. It will still be worth it.
9. Tabasco Tin Spicy Dark Chocolate Wedges
The richness of dark chocolate with a hint of Tabasco is simply genius.

Congratulations y’all, we’re finally out of the phase where our parents would hide liquor chocolates from us. Chocolate covered booze without a hangover, I’m in!

These iconic triangular chocolates are filled with caramelised almonds with a pinch of salt on top, just like the snow caped mountains of Switzerland.

Hard chocolate bites with flaky almonds are so addictive.

Variety is the spice of life or in this case sweetner.
