How can Gordon Ramsay put his name to such a shoddy, commercially produced, sickeningly flavoured chocolates as his Just Desserts range? I was persuaded to indulge in an Ocado delivery recently as they promised me £10 off my shopping, free delivery and a box of Gordon Ramsay's 'luxury' chocolates.
Luxury?! I've never tasted such heinous confectionary or, as it happens, desserts. From the disgustingly sweet strawberry and white chocolate concoction to the cloyingly synthetic flavours of the honeycomb dark chocolate thing, and to the appallingly chosen combination chocolates - if you're using ginger, use dark chocolate, not bad quality, greasy white - the whole collection was revolting.
And, why did they all look as though someone had stuck their dirty thumb in each chocolate - from the bottom. How did that happen? The packaging was intact.
So, here's the question: did Ocado, the usually reliable purveyors of luxury items and quality food, send us 'seconds' which they knew were damaged, and were a particularly bad batch, or is the whole range of chocolates as unaccountably rubbish as we experienced?
Shame on you, Ramsay.
