What gifts to take? Presents customs in Poland.

Agreed, they are quite nice but despite the French sounding name, they are made in Germany.
I have to say that I am not particularly partial to coffee flavoured chocolates.

Actually, there are about two dozen or even more flavours. I visited my friends a few weeks ago and they served a plate of Merci as one of the snacks. I found some which I have never tried before - amasing flavours which I can`t remember now.

I didn't think there were that many but I've tried quite a few. Wish I could buy just the coffee ones.

E Wedel Pawełek have a caffe latte chocolate bar but I've yet to find other coffee flavoured chocolates.

Same.

The coffee ones and the orange ones.

Potwarz! :O


Why... :O


Besides coffee flavoured I also like the hazelnut ones (I think they're the ones with the green stripe) :) Probably the only Merci flavour I could really do without is marzipan (I just don't like marzipan in general).

I forgot that.

Marzipan is one of m6 favourite things.

I love marzipan as well as coffee chocolates :)


Lidl do a marzipan log in dark chocolate. Sadly, it's usually only at Xmas and Easter.

I wish it hadn't been mentioned since I can't get it here and have been thinking about it ever since.....


Oh God....

It's in different flavours too. In addition to the one in dark chocolate there's also a pineapple and rum marzipan log and a rum and raisin one.

The best ones though are the Lidl marzipan chocolate rounds. They come in orange, cherry, and plum and madeira flavours. They are to die for!

I'm sort of twitching now.

Back in England soon, and bang goes the diet...

Some shops in Poland sell chocolate covered marzipan. I think imported from Germany.

One thing I like in PL is all the different fla ours of halva.

F=ck it! Just enjoy good British food!

That's the problem....

Full breakfast, Yorkshire pudding and Indian food.

To get back on topic, I always bring back a load of English confectionary to give as presents in Poland. Home is not too far away from the Licorice Allsorts factory and they have a really good factory shop.

I do like halva although not had it for years. Must try some next time I'm in PL.

There's loads of different types there, marbled, chocolate flavour etc.

Exactly! Enjoy!

Some of Lidl marzipan comes from Germany and some from Italy. I've just found that they sell dark chocolate covered marzipan eggs too.......


I haven't had those for years but I only really liked the blue bobbly looking ones.

One of my total pleasures!!!

I would prefer waffles there.

How do you know that imperial Russian members mocked me as Pawian Wafflewich in another forum????

I didn't know it.....and waffles, especially the Polish ones, are simply good.

Exactly. I was too good for/to them. :):):)

A gingerbread house. We got a similar one 2 years ago. It was exploited as a fancy decoration until I looked closely inside and found moths and their larvae. So, if you ever get this present, munch on it soon before moths do.
