User Reviews and comments on Swissmaster From: Karen E. Penate on Feb-15-2003 I had the pleasure of visiting Swissmaster on the eve of Valentine's Day this year (2003). The line up was quite large -- this I knew could only speak to the great quality of the chocolates. The store is tiny and located in the well heeled area of York Mills and Bayview. The line-up was well worth it...........I'm so glad I didn't turn away. I found the prices to be reasonable considering the fantastic truffles. I purchased a box of 12 truffles. They were a gift for Valentine's Day and they were extremely well received. While I was there I decided to purchase two truffles for myself. The sales lady took a shine to me and she also gave me one free truffle to eat in the store. On my way home I decided to eat one of the truffles. This particular one was white chocolate with a white chocolate filling and a hint of lemon. WOW! I was incredibly surprised when I bit into the chocolate. My mouth was just NOT ready for what it tasted! It was fantastic. Suited perfectly to my tastes. I can honestly say that the truffle made my day! I would not hesitate to recommend Swissmaster to anyone. My only regret is that I did not discover it sooner! Nice chocolates but nothing made on the site. All come from Switzerland. And when they say "Beautiful chocolates for beautiful people" I can only laugh at all that snobish circus they are. Good chocolates but nothing exceptional for the publicity they make out of it. We tried Swissmaster today. My impression was that the Swissmaster chocolates were for people who, given a choice between sugar and chocolate, would prefer to eat sugar. I tried two of the darkest truffles they offered and felt like the chocolate was altogether overpowered by the sugary inside. Nor did the chocolate itself particularly impress me (insofar as I was able to tell). I am sorry to report that I didn't like either truffle particularly. If you are considering going to Swissmaster, I would recommend changing course and heading over to Bernard Callebaut instead. My wifes comments about Swissmaster are more to the point: "They were too sweet." From: Becky on Jul-06-2010 I got some of these as a gift and they were exceptional! I got a dark chocolate truffle and a nutty chocolate thing that had thank you written on it. I don't normally like dark chocolate and I still loved the truffle. The nutty one has inspired me to look into getting them as gifts for the anniversary party we're throwing for my in-laws. Return to the Swissmaster page.
