Baileys Original Truffle Bar Falls Short for This Chocolate Connoisseur
summarizeEditor's Summary
I've always had a soft spot for dark chocolate, but Baileys' Original Truffle Bar left me wanting more. With a rich history behind the brand, I expected a decadent treat that would blow me away. Unfortunately, this bar falls short in several areas. The milk chocolate quality is just average, the filling isn't as exciting as I hoped, and the packaging is a bit of a hassle. Still, it's worth trying if you're a fan of Baileys liqueur. But for a chocolate connoisseur like myself, there are better options out there. To be honest, I was expecting a lot more from this bar, especially considering the premium price point. The chocolate looks great, don't get me wrong - it's got a nice weight to it, and the Baileys logo is eye-catching. But when it comes down to it, the chocolate just doesn't deliver. The filling is bland, and the packaging is a real pain to deal with. Overall, I'd say this bar is a bit of a letdown.

Baileys Original Truffle Bar Chocolate. Review
Weight: 90 grams
Country of origin: Ireland
Price: 270 rubles
Where to buy: You can find Baileys chocolate in Russian stores like Magnit, or order it from MegaMarket.
Packaging
The chocolate looks premium - it's packaged in a cardboard box with a fancy design. The Baileys logo catches my eye, but the letters get lost on the dark background. If you want to give this as a gift, don't expect an instant reaction - it might take some time for the recipient to realize it's not just any ordinary milk chocolate, but from the legendary Baileys brand.
Baileys Original Truffle Bar Chocolate. ReviewThe back of the cardboard packaging has a lot of fine print. It's readable, though - you'll find info on the ingredients and calorie count.
Baileys Original Truffle Bar Review
Baileys Original Truffle Bar ReviewThe packaging opens from the top or bottom - your choice. A chocolate bar pops out, wrapped in a thin, silver foil that's almost too fragile to handle. It's literally torn apart by just looking at it.
Unwrapping the foil was a hassle, and storing it was just as bad. I'm baffled by the manufacturer's decision to wrap the chocolate in this way. I wish they'd finally realize not everyone devours the whole bar at once and design a package that lets you store leftovers.
Appearance
The chocolate bar is divided into 12 rectangular pieces. The top surface is curved, with a little hump on each piece. There's no branding or embossing on the chocolate itself. If you try to break the chocolate into thin slivers, you'll end up with a chocolate 'hill' of sorts.
Baileys Original Truffle Bar Chocolate Bar ReviewI was impressed by how smooth the back of the chocolate bar is - it's completely flat, straight, and even. No signs of any printing or labels here. I guess Baileys is all about the packaging, not the actual chocolate.
Baileys Original Truffle Bar Chocolate Bar ReviewThe chocolate doesn't melt at room temperature and doesn't leave any fingerprints. It breaks cleanly, almost perfectly, but the filling is spread throughout the entire chocolate bar, not just the raised part. So, when you break it, you can see the filling oozing out and stretching.
My Verdict
We decided to share the Baileys Original Truffle Bar with my husband, sans kids. There's something intriguing about sneaking a sweet treat without anyone noticing. I even felt like a spy from a thriller movie when I tried not to rustle the wrapper while watching TV. But, let's be real... it wasn't worth it.
My husband loved it, but he's one of those people who'll eat anything as long as it's sweet. I, on the other hand, expect a rich treat to blow me away. If I'm going to indulge in something rich, I expect it to be mind-blowing. Anything less just isn't worth the calories.
Baileys Original Truffle Bar Chocolate Bar Review
As for me, I'm really disappointed with the milk chocolate. It's just too sweet and lacks any real depth. I think if they'd made it with dark chocolate instead, the flavor would have been a lot better.
Baileys Original Truffle Bar ReviewSo, what you get is basically 'oil on oil' - a sweet chocolate and an even sweeter filling. It's thick and sticky, almost like caramel. It's fun to eat at first, like a piece of bubble gum, but then it just melts away.
Baileys Original Truffle Bar ReviewThe aroma of this chocolate is actually pretty nice. It's got a coffee-like, slightly bitter, and very sweet smell. I'm guessing the perfume makers have tried to recreate this scent multiple times.
I'm one of those people who's never tried Baileys liqueur before. I get that the filling is supposed to have a hint of the famous drink, but something about it just doesn't taste right to me. There's no taste or smell of alcohol in this chocolate at all, and the filling is just interesting, fairly tasty, but way too sweet for my liking - I couldn't find any hint of the liqueur.
Verdict
For me, the Baileys Original Truffle Bar was a major letdown. I didn't like the quality of the milk chocolate, and the filling just didn't live up to my expectations - I was hoping for something unique, but it's basically just a dense cream brulee.
Baileys Original Truffle Bar Review
I was really looking forward to trying this milk chocolate Baileys bar, but unfortunately, it didn't blow me away. It's tasty, don't get me wrong, but I wouldn't go out of my way to buy it again. My husband, on the other hand, loved it and was bummed when it was all gone. So, I guess it's just one of those things where everyone's tastes are different. 3 stars. Maybe Baileys has some other chocolate bars that are better, but this one's not worth recommending.
