Almost every family plays mahjong during the Lunar New Year, but have you seen these "mahjong chocolates"? The renowned chocolate brand "Talking Choco 会说话的巧克力" has specially crafted mahjong tiles in the form of white chocolate, featuring all 45 pieces in adorable designs—truly a top-tier Lunar New Year gift.

Each set of these mahjong chocolates contains 45 pieces, weighing about 300 grams. They’re made with Taiwanese-grown cocoa beans and cocoa butter, with edible pigments used for the characters. The manufacturer explained that the mold itself has 45 cavities, including the basic 27 pieces for the suits (characters, bamboos, and dots), as well as the wind tiles (east, south, west, north), dragon tiles (red, green, white), and the four seasons. The only downside is that the flower tiles were omitted, replaced instead with "green dragon" and "nine of characters, nine of bamboos, nine of dots" to form the playful homophone "prosperity, prosperity, forever and ever." Still, it’s a clever touch.

Talking Choco 会说话的巧克力 noted that their chocolates, depending on the origin of ingredients, vary in ratios and production processes, resulting in thousands of possible flavor combinations across the initial, middle, and aftertaste stages. To craft the most perfect taste memory for the Talking Choco brand, they sourced chocolate ingredients from around the world—from France, Malaysia, Belgium, to Switzerland. Much like coffee beans, each origin offers unique flavor profiles. After relentless experimentation, they ultimately chose the Belgian brand "Belcolade" for its premium quality. Their ingredient selection is truly meticulous.

During a taste test, even before taking a bite, the rich aroma of chocolate wafted through the air. The first bite was luxuriously smooth—the white chocolate sweet yet not cloying, incredibly moreish and irresistible. However, it also felt a bit of a shame to finish them all too quickly. Meanwhile, many elders found this gift brimming with Lunar New Year vibes, making it highly suitable for gifting. It’s arguably the best product of 2017 for both giving and personal enjoyment during the holidays.
