Why it's worth it

Baci ("kisses") have been made in Perugia since 1922, each one wrapped with a little love note, and they are an icon of Italian confectionery. A dark-chocolate shell hugs a gianduia-and-hazelnut centre crowned with a whole hazelnut. Baci are exported widely and can be found in Czech premium aisles, so they earn their place on cultural weight rather than rarity.

Taste

Dark chocolate over a gianduia hazelnut heart with chopped hazelnuts, topped with a whole hazelnut; rich, nutty, softly bittersweet
