(More customer reviews)The product description calls the Orangettes "Belgian Vitamin C." Except for the luxury price, I'm sure Belgians must be pretty healthy with these around. They're amazing! The combination of orange peel and chocolate has long been popular, but Leonidas does it very well. The dark chocolate is very rich, not bitter, and completely covers the orange peel (which retains a good flavor and isn't overly sweet). Unlike other chocolatiers who often dip the peel only partially, Leonidas has made certain to put their chocolate center stage by using a generous portion. The result is an addictive treat because the flavors linger on the palate and the Orangettes aren't so sweet as to become cloying.
I don't know if these guys are really going to improve your health, but they will definitely improve your day. In my opinion, they're worth the money as an occasional purchase and certainly worth a one-time try.
The packaging is a gold box, wrapped in blue and white Leonidas paper with a gilt deep purple box. For shipping, the package was placed inside a sturdy styrofoam shell. Mine arrived within three days and looked like I'd purchased them at the store to give as a gift.
