What should you check?
Settle the chocolate format first, then compare the number of pieces and the information on the exact box you plan to serve.
| Priority |
What to check |
Your needs |
| White-chocolate focus |
Check whether every piece is white chocolate or whether white chocolate is one part of an assortment. Lindt identifies its LINDOR 200g box as white-chocolate truffles. |
White chocolate is the main request, so I would rather pass round a dedicated box than sort through mixed chocolates. |
| Choice of chocolate |
Check which chocolate types and centres are included. M&S describes its 300g and 624g selections as containing milk, dark and white chocolates. |
Guests have different preferences; I want white chocolate available without making it the only choice. |
| Pieces for the table |
Compare a stated piece count with the guest list rather than using box weight as a serving count. Waitrose describes the 200g Lindt box as containing approximately 16 truffles. |
Will there be enough individual pieces for the people coming, and do I want to offer more than one per person? |
| Ingredients and allergens |
Read the current pack’s ingredients, highlighted allergens and may-contain statements. Lindt lists milk, lactose and soya for its white truffles, with possible hazelnut and other-nut exposure. |
Before I put one box out for everyone, I need to know whether each guest can have the exact chocolates inside it. |
| Condition and timing |
Check the pack’s best-before date and storage directions. Confirm that the box you intend to buy will be available in time for game night. |
I want the box ready to serve on the day, without relying on an earlier product listing or an unchecked cupboard box. |
Relevant brands and ranges
These ranges offer different ways to include white chocolate; a brand name alone does not tell you what is inside a particular box.
Lindt
Lindt lists a 200g LINDOR White Chocolate Truffles box for a dedicated white-chocolate choice.
- Waitrose describes the box as containing approximately 16 truffles, a useful count when planning what to pass round.

M&S
M&S lists 300g and 624g selections containing milk, dark and white chocolates.

Galaxy
Galaxy’s UK range includes bars and sharing bags, which are formats to consider when passing chocolate round a table.

Questions before game night
Should I buy a dedicated white-chocolate box or a mixed selection?
Choose a dedicated box if white chocolate is the agreed preference; choose a mixed selection if guests also want milk or dark chocolate. Lindt’s LINDOR White Chocolate Truffles box serves the first purpose, while M&S lists selections containing all three chocolate types.
Will one 200g truffle box be enough for everyone?
Count pieces against your guest list rather than assuming a serving size. Waitrose describes the 200g Lindt white-truffle box as containing approximately 16 truffles; whether one box is enough depends on how many people are coming and how many pieces you intend to offer each.
Do I still need to check allergens in white chocolate?
Yes. Lindt’s ingredient information for its white truffles lists milk, lactose and soya and says the product may contain hazelnuts and other nuts. Ask guests about allergies, then read the current ingredients and may-contain statements on the exact pack you will serve.
How should I keep the chocolates before guests arrive?
Follow the storage directions and best-before date on the box you buy. If you are setting chocolates out ahead of play, keep their packaging available so guests can check the ingredients.
Can I use an online ingredient list instead of checking the pack?
Use an online listing to narrow your choices, but check the exact pack before serving it. That lets you assess the ingredients, allergen warnings and date for the chocolates guests will actually eat.
