Merci Coconut Series Falls Short, But Other Assortments Remain My Top Pick
summarizeEditor's Summary
I picked up the Merci coconut chocolates on sale at Magenta for 349.99 rubles, and with a coupon, it was an even better deal. But, to be honest, the Merci coconut series didn't quite live up to my expectations. I've also tried the Toffifee with coconut from Storck, which is one of their latest releases. The Merci coconut series just didn't have the same flavor and quality as some of their other offerings, like their hazelnut or orange flavors.

I picked up the Merci coconut chocolates on sale at Magenta for 349.99 rubles, and with a coupon, it was an even better deal.
For comparison, I've also tried the Toffifee with coconut from Storck, which is one of their latest releases.
The cardboard box has a plastic film on top and is the same size as their other Merci flavors.
Net weight 250 grams
I like that the ingredients for each flavor are listed separately - you'll find plant-based fats and cocoa butter in the filling.
Given that this is a coconut collection, it's no surprise that all four flavors feature coconut flakes.
Dark chocolate with coconut cream, white chocolate with crispy coconut flakes, milk chocolate with coconut cream, and white chocolate with coconut-macadamia nut cream.
The arrangement of chocolates inside the packaging is standard - you get a mix of mini chocolate bars and regular chocolates.
There are 20 chocolates in total, and each flavor is distinct from the others.
The white chocolate can be tricky to tell apart from the milk chocolate, but the colored stripe on the wrapper helps.
The milk chocolate and coconut cream combination was my favorite - I loved the creaminess of both the filling and the chocolate.
The chocolate melts quickly when it's warm, and storing it in the fridge makes the chocolate flavor worse, in my opinion.
The filling is creamy, soft, and has a coconut flavor - you can really taste the coconut and flakes in the chocolate.
The dark chocolate and coconut filling is also a good taste, but it's not as delicate as the milk chocolate and coconut cream combination.
The dark chocolate doesn't have any bitterness, but it doesn't specify the percentage of cocoa products in the overall mass.
The filling is similar to the previous taste.
I have to say, the white chocolate with crunchy coconut flakes is more to my liking than the second 'white' one.
There are plenty of crunchy coconut shavings and cornflakes mixed in.
The chocolate is quite sweet, creamy, and milky, but it melts quickly in warm temperatures.
Another white chocolate, this time with a coconut and almond cream.
The chocolate is the same as the previous one, but the difference is in the filling.
There's also coconut shavings and a small amount of chopped almonds, but I think they put too little nuts in - the coconut shavings are more noticeable.
I've tried the STORCK Merci chocolate truffles with coconut, and they didn't disappoint, but they didn't impress me either. They're not my favorites, and I'd only buy them again during good sales. If you're a fan of coconut flavor, you might want to try them.
My reviews for other Merci chocolate sets: Milk Chocolates, Finest Selection, Ассорти с миндалем
Way back when, I was underwhelmed by Merci Limited Edition Assortment Confections with Fruit-Yogurt Fillings, which was one of the company's limited-edition fruit collections a few years ago.
