Nice gesture.

Is it just me or is that label messed up ? It says a serving size is 16 pieces and then goes on to claim there are 16 servings per box. That comes out to 250 odd chocolates which there clearly isn't.

Here in the UK say you have a 100g box. A serving size would be 10g and there would be 10 servings per box etc. So unless there are 2.5kg of chocolate there then the label is wrong.

Or maybe I shouldn't be reading threads at 7 in the morning and will be corrected and made to look a fool.

Enjoy!

In moderation, that is...48g of fat is nearly 75% of your daily value...but who's counting?

Lovely chocolates. Hope you aren't tempted to eat them. They are Rolex collectables and must be kept in mint condition.

Very nice gesture .. I gave the sales lady at one of my local ad's a box of Godiva as a thank you for taking such good care of me.
