Costco Lindt Lindor Assorted Chocolates Review

I’ll admit up front that I really enjoy Lindt Lindor chocolates. I’ve been eating them since I was a kid. With that being said, there are lots of foods that I loved as a kid that seem terrible to me now, so it does say something that I still love these chocolates as much as ever. Read on to find out what makes the Lindt Lindor Assorted Chocolates from Costco so enjoyable and why I’ve put both the regular and Easter boxes in my cart many times.

I’ve reviewed a ton of other Costco seasonal Christmas chocolates. Costco Bailey’s Original Irish Cream Chocolates, Costco Gudrun Fine Belgian Chocolates, Costco Kirkland Signature Belgian Luxury Chocolates and the Costco Kirkland Signature Chocolates Of The World.

You can find the Lindt Lindor chocolates in the Christmas seasonal aisle at Costco. The item number is 145866.

Taste

The box of Lindt assorted chocolates for Christmas at Costco comes with four kinds of Lindor balls. Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate and hazelnut. All of them are delicious and my favorite is the simple milk chocolate which comes in a red wrapper.

The white chocolate is probably my least favorite but that’s because white chocolate doesn’t really seem like real chocolate to me, it’s more like pure sugar. These are probably one of the better white chocolates I’ve had. The dark chocolate is delicious as is the hazelnut. The hazelnut has tiny little pieces of hazelnuts in it which give it some extra texture and crunch!

The limited edition box of Lindor for Easter has milk & white, pistachio, dark chocolate, milk chocolate and stracciatella. The milk chocolate and dark are exactly the same as the Christmas box.

Pistachio is unique and tasty. The milk chocolate and pistachio flavors complement each other really well. The pistachio filling is quite sweet compared to other pistachio-flavored treats I’ve had in the past, but not in a bad way.

Pistachio, milk, dark, milk and white and stracciatella.

Milk and white is pretty much exactly what you’d expect if you’ve had the milk and white chocolates. It’s sweeter than milk chocolate due to the sweetness of white chocolate and richer and chocolaty than white chocolate because of milk chocolate. 

Stracciatella is a white ball with flecks of milk chocolate. It’s pretty sweet and the flecks of milk chocolate give a bit of extra crunch and texture. I wouldn’t say it’s my favorite but it is quite good.

Which one would you choose?

All of the chocolates in both boxes are smooth, creamy, not too sweet and melt in your mouth. The middle of the balls are very silky and velvety and melt in your mouth.

I think the Lindor balls from Costco are probably my favorite grocery store-bought chocolates I’ve tried.

Cost

I paid $21.99 Canadian for the 900-gram Christmas season box of 60-70 Assorted Lindor balls. This isn’t too expensive considering the quality, I do know that the Lindt Store sometimes has a deal that you can get 100 Lindor balls for just over $30.

The limited edition Easter box that’s 608 grams costs $17.99 Canadian.

Irresistibly smooth.

Convenience

The best-before date listed on the Lindt Lindor chocolates is about six months from the date we purchased them. The box recommends storing the chocolates in a cool, dry place to preserve quality.

These are a hit with everyone who tries them around the holiday season. Both my parents and my husband’s parents love them and all my friends love them too! They’re classic holiday chocolate.

Costco Lindt Lindor Assorted Chocolate Nutrition Facts
Christmas season box nutrition facts.

Nutrition

Calories

One ball in the Christmas box contains 80 calories, six grams of fat, zero grams of fibre, six grams of carbohydrates, five grams of sugar, 10 mg of sodium and one gram of protein. These are not low in calories but one Lindor ball is very satisfying and rich so you don’t feel the need to eat a ton of these.

The nutrition information on the seasonal Easter box is presented a bit different. Three balls contain 230 calories, 18 grams of fat, 16 grams of carbohydrates, one gram of fibre, 16 grams of sugar, two grams of protein and 25 milligrams of sodium.

Ingredients

Both boxes have the same similar unhealthy ingredients like sugar, palm oil and artificial flavor. Despite them being bad for you I still enjoy them and think they’re worth the undesirable ingredients and calories.

Must buy!

These are expensive but they’re probably the best quality mass-market chocolates you can buy. They’re rich, delicious, creamy and so good!

  1. One last thing, I forgot to mention, everyone, paste yourself with these Lindt chocolates, because these things are extremely addictive! I always eat them, four at a time, at least! One of each flavor, one after the other, with a pause in between so I can taste the next ones full flavour clearly! I often go in the order of milk, chocolate, milk, chocolate, and hazelnut, white chocolate, and then dark chocolate last! I leave the dark chocolate one for last out of the four usually, because it is a very strong flavour of dark, dark chocolate, and I don’t want it, overpowering any other flavours that come after it! Anyway, I love them all they are all excellent! And personally, myself, I love white chocolate ! When I was a child, I used to ask my parents to always be sure they got me a white chocolate rabbit, along with any other regular chocolate that they were getting me! If I could only have one kind, I asked for white chocolate rabbits!

  2. Hello Natalie, I agree with you I absolutely love Lindt chocolates! I, always buy the four flavoured ones, that you listed first here, at Christmas time, when they’re on sale! Every once in a while, when I see them on and it’s not Christmas time, even when they’re full price, I, will occasionally buy a 907g box of them! These chocolates, are worth every single penny, even at full price! They melt like butter in your mouth, and they are fantastic, better than any chocolate bar, I have ever eaten! I, will definitely be looking for the Easter ones, in the next week or so, and pick up a box for myself and a box for a friend of mine! I’ve been wanting to try the Easter flavours also, which, I haven’t had before! My advice to anyone that sees the Lindt chocolates in Costco, or anywhere else, buy them and try them out, you will not be disappointed, they are absolute heaven to eat! Have a great day, Natalie! Please keep the fabulous reviews coming! “Happy Easter, to you and your family, Natalie!”
