And I have been here for decades and always go on the shopping trips. Where are you located? I'm in Bang Saray, so I shop at Sattahip or Pattaya. As I said, these brands are not always available, so (like many foreign goodies) it's wise to stock up when you find them. Another good place for decent chocolate at a reasonable price is IKEA (no assembly required ????), but it's a 4 hour+ round trip for me (not saying I haven't been tempted). PS - I just saw that IKEA chocolate is available on "shopee" at 49B per 100g. I've never used "shoppee" so I don't know how that works - postage fees etc. https://shopee.co.th/Chocolate-IKEA-(dark)-i.1613980.67145307 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenslegs Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 ^ Been looking around Shoppee a bit more... 3x100g bars of IKEA dark, milk, or hazelnut at 100 Baht. IIRC that is the same price as in the store. https://shopee.co.th/ikea-ช็อกโกแลต-3-แพค-100-บาท-รสดาร์คช็อก-และรสเฮเซลนัต-CHOKLAD-NÖT-CHOKLAD-MÖRK-Chocolate-3pcs-100-baht-i.50011722.1600815604 I just need to learn how to read Thai and I will place an order.

One type of the two types they're selling has an expiration date in the first week of March. The other has an expiration date into May.... It looks like an Ikea products reseller is looking to move their shelf product before it expires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it wouldn't put me off. I can't imagine that out-of-date chocolate would be harmful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beleive it or not there is a an English conversion there but how to get it must be the most idiotic system ever applied to a website platform.The Gf tried to set it up for me and it took 45 mins to work it out. First you need to register... And in thai before the English tab becomes visible.. Idiotic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martyp Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 This chocolate is manufactured in Chiang Mai. It is as good as any dark chocolate I’ve eaten including the bean-to-bar chocolate in the San Francisco Bay Area. https://www.siamayachocolate.com/ the website list the BKK locations where it is sold.
