Attention, chocolate lovers! We have some sweet news for you.
An international confectionery brand that has caused quite a stir worldwide has finally made its appearance on the shelves of your favourite local supermarket.
Cult-favourite Tony's Chocolonely bars, hailing from the Netherlands, have been causing quite the commotion among sweet-toothed customers for many years.
Often dubbed the ‘world’s best’, the popular chocolate blocks are now officially available to buy in Woolworths and Coles!
Previously only found in boutique stockists, Tony's Chocolonely bars are now easier to access and sample than ever before.
Aside from its incredible taste, there's another reason to feel good about purchasing Tony's Chocolonely bars: they're made using ethically sourced cocoa.
According to reports, the Dutch-based chocolate brand was founded by three Dutch journalists after discovering that the world’s largest manufacturers were buying cocoa from plantations that used illegal child labour and modern-day slavery.
Since then, the brand has dedicated itself to raising awareness about the inequality in the chocolate industry.
And what started 13 years ago as a mission to produce delicious chocolate that supports sustainable cocoa farming, these bars have now won over chocolate enthusiasts due to the brand's dedication to creating a product that's not only tasty but also responsible.
Thanks to social media, more and more Aussies are discovering what the excitement is all about and sharing rave reviews about the decadent chocolate bars.
Well-known food blogger @AngeEats reviewed the chocolate bar in a post he shared on social media. He said: ‘Holy cow, that's very sweet, but that is an absolutely insane taste’.

While another popular food critic, @nectoriouspapi, said the taste was ‘insane’. You can watch the rest of his review below:
Coles currently stocks four different flavours of Tony's Chocolonely bars, including Dark Chocolate Pretzel, Milk Chocolate Caramel Sea Salt, Dark Chocolate Almond Sea Salt, and the original Milk Chocolate flavour.
You can also buy them in 180g blocks or in smaller 47g-sized bars that retail for $3.50.
A spokesperson for Coles said: ‘Coles is excited to launch the Tony's Chocolonely brand into 200 Coles stores across the country. Our aim is to provide our customers with more choices when shopping the confectionery aisle and offer products that excite and delight along the way.’
Meanwhile, Woolworths has the larger bars available at $8.25 each and offers an impressive range of seven different flavours in over 180 store locations, giving you more variety to indulge your sweet tooth.
‘This top-quality Dutch chocolate has a cult following, and we're excited to offer our customers seven flavours to add to their basket during their regular grocery shop. Whether you prefer the comforting indulgence of milk hazelnut or the more divisive dark almond sea salt, there is a Tony's Chocolonely for everyone,’ a spokesperson for Woolworths shared.
Woolworths added that it hoped the new addition would help customers who were already going out of their way to buy Tony’s Chocolonely from overseas markets by making the stock more accessible and convenient.
Many Australians were overjoyed when they learned that this cult favourite is now within easy reach. Some even described Tony's Chocolonely as ‘Ten times better than Cadbury’.
While the ‘luxury’ price tag of $8 for 180g of chocolate may be a bit steep amid the current cost of living crisis, supporters of the brand argue that ‘it's expensive because it supports sustainable cocoa farming’.
One loyal customer shared their review on the flavourful treat: ‘Best chocolate. It's slave-free… and definitely worth the price.’
So, for the chocolate connoisseurs out there, why not treat yourself and taste the hype surrounding these delightful Tony's Chocolonely bars? With their unique flavours and ethical production practices, you're in for a guilt-free indulgence. Enjoy!
