The definitive ranking of Lindt Excellence blocks

Melted chocolate

Highly subject to personal taste, of course.

11. Lindt Excellence Orange Intense

No offense at all to orange-chocolate lovers, but this comes eleventh on our list only because there are so many other amazing flavours.

10. Lindt Excellence Mint Intense

We love mint. We love chocolate. End of story.

9. Lindt Excellence 70% cocoa

Certainly not for the faint-hearted – but that’s no problem, right?

8. Lindt Excellence Arabica Intense

You had us at coffee and chocolate.

7. Lindt Excellence 85% Cacoa

Long before cacao was co-opted by hipsters, Lindt was using it to make some pretty awesome chocolate. It’s 85 per cent, meaning it’s quite intense, but a few squares with a cup of coffee is the ultimate afternoon tea.

6. Lindt Excellence Roasted Almond

It probably goes without saying that we’re nuts about this.

5. Lindt Excellence Extra Creamy

While there’s certainly a place for sharp, slightly bitter chocolate, sometimes you really just want something that’s going to melt in your mouth and fill you with crazy amounts of happiness. And that’s where this block comes in handy.

4. Lindt Excellence Chilli

I mean, whoa. This packs a punch, but that’s the reason it’s made number four on the list – you can only eat a few squares, meaning there’s in-built portion control. It’s practically good for you.

3. Lindt Excellence Coconut Intense

Adding coconut to chocolate? Sign. Us. Up.

2. Lindt Excellence A Touch of Sea Salt

Just a few years ago, adding salt to chocolate would have been crazy – on par with, say, Kanye marrying Kim K. But some things are just meant to be together.

1. Lindt Excellence Sea Salt Caramel

Salt. Caramel. Dark chocolate. This hunk of spunk has it all, and is obviously (according to this one writer, who probably has no business ranking chocolate) the greatest of all the Lindt blocks.
