My Thoughts on Merci Finest Selection: The Pros and Cons of a Popular Gift

summarizeEditor's Summary

Merci Finest Selection chocolates are everywhere - you can spot them at almost every supermarket, from 5-Plus to METRO, and they're often on sale! They're a super affordable option, making them a great choice during the holiday season when you're exchanging gifts. I've been a fan of Merci chocolates for a long time, and I love the milk chocolate flavor, but the build quality of the box could be better. The price range is around 350-450 rubles, which is a great value for money. One thing I appreciate is the variety of 8 different flavors in the assortment - it's a nice change of pace from the usual milk chocolate. Overall, Merci Finest Selection chocolates are a decent gift option, but they could use some improvement in terms of build quality and chocolate quality.

My Thoughts on Merci Finest Selection: The Pros and Cons of a Popular Gift
I've got to admit, Merci Finest Selection chocolates are everywhere - you can spot them at almost every supermarket, from 5-Plus to METRO, and they're often on sale!
So, it's no surprise they're a super affordable option, and the name 'Merci' is perfect for showing appreciation and gratitude, which makes them a great choice during the holiday season when you're exchanging gifts.
I've been a fan of Merci chocolates for a long time - I remember my mom used to get them as a gift when she was a manager, and now my husband gets them, so I end up eating them too.
Although I've never bought them for myself, I did catch myself thinking I should, considering how affordable they are and how much I love the milk chocolate flavor, which is perfect for me!
As of my review, the price range is around 350-450 rubles.
The Merci chocolate box is made of cardboard with a simple design - it doesn't stand out from the rest.
The chocolate assortment itself is presented in 8 flavors:
milk chocolate without additivescoffee and creamforest nut and almondnutty creammarzipandark chocolatedark chocolate with moussepraline cream fillingEven if you don't know the recipient's preferences, it's likely that at least one of the flavors will be a hit!
The chocolate pieces look presentable.
Each chocolate is wrapped individually: one side is transparent, the other is golden with a flavor note, and there's a sticker that's colored differently depending on the flavor.
Now, I think everyone's had these types of chocolates before and knows what I'm talking about.
As we get older, we sometimes check the ingredients, and my husband actually reads the label carefully and noticed that 2 flavors (praline cream and dark mousse) contain palm oil - which isn't great.
I'm a milk chocolate fan, and Merci's is perfect - it's delicate, not too sweet, and genuinely milk chocolatey!
And I also really enjoy the dark chocolate interpretation by Merci - it's incredibly tasty!
The individual packaging of the chocolates is a nice touch and helps me from devouring the entire box in one go.
These chocolates are delicious, tasty, and look great, so it's no wonder they're a popular gift option.
However, their popularity has also made them seem a bit overplayed - some people might not appreciate the gesture as much, especially since they're so widely available.
I actually had a bit of an awkward experience last year when I bought Merci as a gift for my dentist - she basically handed them off to her assistant while I was there.
I'm not judging her behavior, but I can understand why some people might not value Merci as much as they used to, especially if they're giving it to someone who's seen it all before.
On the other hand, when I brought some French chocolates from METRO, the dentist's reaction was much more positive - she even took them into her office!
So, in the end, Merci Finest Selection is a great choice for anyone who loves chocolate - it's affordable, delicious, and has a wide range of flavors. I enjoy eating them when I receive them as gifts, but I wouldn't consider giving them as a gift myself, mainly because they've become a bit too mainstream and not everyone will appreciate the gesture.
