It says you are getting an equal amount of what they are showing.

I know that. The OP said she didn't want dark chocolate, just milk chocolate. That is not an option with the TSV, though I'm sure can be ordered from the HL website, it just won't be the TSV value or configuration.

i am definitely getting one set, maybe both. SEES are my all time favorite chocolates, but the price and presentation of these looks so good i want to try them. they will make nice inexpensive hostess gifts. i LOVE that the nutcracker tin can be used as a bottle of wine holder also.

Oh wow really, for 10 dollars a pound? I don't mind paying higher prices for quality chocolate but I'm not paying 10 bucks a pound Whitman's.

They used to be good, but I got some for Christmas last year. Tried a couple...gave the rest away; they were downright nasty, IMO. I'd rather have one of those pounder chocolate bars from Trader Joe's!

The presentations make them look yummy, but to me they were absolutely nothing special. So glad I tried them on my MIL's dime, and did not pay for something that is just "okay".
