If a stated cocoa threshold matters, Lindt LINDOR Dark 70% is a boxed truffle option whose dark shell contains at least 70% cocoa; choose Dark Mint only if you want a mint filling. If you would rather try several fillings, a dark assortment such as Thorntons Continental Dark offers a different format, but check the particular box’s cocoa declaration and allergen information before buying.
If a particular cocoa threshold guides your choice, look for a percentage that says which part of the chocolate it describes. Lindt Shop UK states at least 70% cocoa for the dark shell of its LINDOR Dark and Dark Mint truffles.
If you want different pieces to sample or share, a dark assortment may suit you better than a single-style truffle box. Thorntons lists dark chocolate salted caramel and espresso pieces in its Continental Dark assortment.
Read the current ingredients and precautionary statements for the exact box. The Lindt 70% Dark and Dark Mint truffles contain milk and soya and carry nut precautionary statements.
Decide whether a stated cocoa percentage or a choice of fillings matters more for your afternoon snack, then check the ingredients on the box you select.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Cocoa percentage | Check the stated minimum and whether it applies to the shell or the whole chocolate. Lindt Shop UK specifies at least 70% cocoa for the dark shell of LINDOR Dark and Dark Mint. | I want a box with a clear cocoa threshold, rather than choosing by the word “dark” alone. |
| Fillings and format | Compare a single-style truffle box with an assortment of distinct pieces. Check whether mint is a flavour you want: Lindt Dark Mint has a mint filling, while Thorntons lists salted caramel and espresso pieces in Continental Dark. | For an afternoon break, I might prefer a familiar truffle each time—or several fillings to sample or share. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Read the current ingredients and precautionary statements for the exact product, including individual pieces in an assortment. The Lindt 70% Dark and Dark Mint boxes contain milk and soya and carry nut warnings. | Before serving the chocolates, I need to know whether their ingredients and warnings fit the people eating them. |
A box can contain dark chocolate without its description establishing a percentage for the pieces you will eat. That matters if a stated minimum is your deciding criterion.
Look for both the cocoa figure and what it describes. Lindt Shop UK’s 70% declaration applies to the dark shell of its LINDOR Dark and Dark Mint truffles.
The Lindt 70% truffle boxes contain milk and soya and carry nut precautionary statements. A dark-chocolate name does not replace the ingredients list.
Check the current product information and the pack before eating or serving, particularly if an allergen affects your choice.

No. If a cocoa threshold matters, look for a stated percentage and check which part of the chocolate it covers. Lindt Shop UK states at least 70% cocoa for the dark shell of LINDOR Dark and Dark Mint; a dark-assortment name alone does not establish the same threshold.
Do not treat them as dairy-free or nut-free: the Dark and Dark Mint products contain milk and soya and carry nut precautionary statements. Check the current pack for the exact product before eating or serving it.
No. Department of Health and Social Care guidance describes restrictions on the promotion and placement of certain qualifying products by businesses selling to England, not a prohibition on consumers buying chocolate. Do not assume that a particular box falls within those restrictions solely because it is chocolate.
