"Chocolate thins" covers a specific format rather than a single brand - thin, flat discs or wafers of chocolate rather than a standard thick bar - and it's a genuine gap in a lot of sweet shop ranges, ours included.
What the format actually is
Chocolate thins are deliberately made thin rather than the standard bar thickness, usually sold loose in a resealable bag or in a gift box of individually wrapped pieces. The appeal is twofold: a thin piece snaps and melts differently to a thick one, and it reads as a lighter, more shareable format - good for passing round rather than one person working through a whole bar.
Who makes them
Lindt's Excellence range includes a thins line alongside its standard bars, and several UK luxury chocolatiers - Prestat among them - sell flavoured chocolate thins (mint, orange, tea-infused varieties and similar) as a gifting product rather than an everyday snack. It's generally pitched at the premium end of the category rather than pocket-money confectionery.
Do we stock it?
No - we don't currently carry a dedicated chocolate thins format. If it's a flat, shareable chocolate format you're after, our Terry's Chocolate Orange bars apply a similar snap-and-share idea to a different shape, and you can read more about the bar-vs-ball debate in our Terry's Chocolate Orange guide.
