Types of artisanal chocolates to buy online

Before buying chocolate you should know that there are as many types on the market as there are available formats.

On our website you can buy chocolates in many forms: From the typical milk chocolate nougat bar to bonbons for Valentine’s Day, but one thing is clear. Ours stands out for being the best.

We have pure chocolate bars with more than 70% minimum cocoa and chocolate coating.

At Turrones la Colmena we continue the centuries-old chocolate tradition using only the finest raw materials and making it weekly. Although without Oompa Loompas, like Willy Wonka. Even so, we never store chocolate bars or units in stock.

In this category you will find the best chocolate to buy organized into different sections.

  • Traditional chocolate nougats with almonds. Sold in a variety of formats that adapt to each situation. Such as bars or medallions. There are packs that will allow you to save a little money. The perfect gift.
  • Not so traditional but delicious chocolates. With whisky, with Cointreau, with orange, with coffee. Try them all!
  • Chocolate bonbons. A bonbonniere. Nuts covered in the finest chocolate. Almonds, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts.
  • A fantastic range of chocolate-covered dragées perfect for gifting
  • Truffles and pralines, a range that melts in your mouth.
  • Certified organic chocolates, the best on the market.
  • Bars or sticks of candied fruit covered in chocolate. Our famous orange sticks.
  • Chocolate figurines: We don’t usually ship these because they break, but if you’re interested, write to us. There are cows, chocolate eggs, a toucan, chocolate cars. Ideal for Easter.

If you are a professional or you really like it and want to give some as a gift, you can buy chocolate in boxes from 1kg to 10kg.

What is the best chocolate brand to buy?

All the chocolates you are going to buy are premium. Including milk chocolate. Some call it Deluxe chocolate. At Turrones la Colmena we don’t sell cheap candy or sweets. Our catalog is possibly not the largest on the market but there’s a reason: Maintaining a quality standard above all competition.

The main chocolate brands we sell are our own: Turrones La Colmena and Turrones San Jorge. We don’t sell all the world’s brands like Milka or Nestlé and as we said before, we never store chocolate in stock.

If you like buying good chocolate or know someone who does, this is your place. The best sweet gifts on the market. You don’t need to look any further than a good product.

Buy cheap chocolates: Their value.

Buying cheap chocolate depends largely on chocolate prices and the units you want to buy. Therefore, a bag is not the same as 5 boxes. There are some packs to save a little money.

The value of chocolate is established from the price of cocoa beans, its main raw material. Some can be around €50 per kilo and others can reach more than €90.

The origin of cocoa dates back to the discovery of America; in Europe the plant needed to extract the fruit did not exist. Little by little it was incorporated into cooking. At first chocolate was bitter, then it was sweetened with sugar until it became what it is today.

Another important aspect is stock. If large quantities are produced in a short time and stored, it is possible to reduce production costs. This is something we never do.

Finally, the price of chocolate varies depending on whether it is mixed with other raw materials, such as almonds, hazelnuts or macadamias or sugar. Cheap chocolate usually has a lot of sugar.

What is the ideal temperature to store chocolate?

The ideal temperature to keep chocolate should be between 16°C and 20°C. A temperature close to room temperature. The important thing is that there are no sudden temperature changes. That’s something established brands like Nestlé know well.

In this company we have a special warehouse for this type of cocoa and chocolate-derived products. This room maintains a temperature of exactly 18°C throughout the year, always guaranteeing a product in perfect condition.

Chocolate shipments are always made in thick cardboard boxes that keep the chocolate and preserve it from sudden temperature changes. Chocolates are shipped in a way that ensures they arrive in the best state of preservation. Even in summer.

When you receive bars of your favorite sweet at home you can store them perfectly in a cupboard.

Buy chocolate for home delivery

We offer you chocolate delivery to your home in a simple way. We ship within 48 hours maximum to your doorstep. If you need to give a gift, contact us via chat and we will answer your questions.

Tell us approximately how many units you want to buy and, if it’s to give chocolate as a gift, we’ll tell you approximately when it will arrive.

Once delivered to your home, how do we store it?

Buying chocolate is not always easy. Chocolate is a difficult product to maintain all year round. Especially dark chocolate.

You have to understand that these are not candies to eat at odd hours. Frequent temperature changes affect it, causing its color and texture to change. That is one of the main reasons why we don’t store units in stock.

Chocolate should always be stored in a dry, cool place away from sunlight where a constant temperature is maintained. Changes between night and day, depending on the area of Spain, can be enough to change some properties of the product. This doesn’t mean it’s bad, but its properties are affected and its color is not as dark or its flavor is less intense.

Buy chocolates for cooking

Buying chocolate for cooking is common. Everything we make can be used in recipes for coating or cakes and even to prepare chocolate-covered nuts. You should know that it’s real chocolate.

Since it’s very good, you won’t need many grams to make chocolate snacks. All the chocolate melts very well, both dark chocolate and white chocolate.
