Yes. They are definitely not as good. The odd time we get chocolate we go to a local shop that makes their own chocolates and candies. So much better, you eat it way less often and helps a local business.
To eat it EVEN less often, try this recipe. I used to make my own chocolate (before going carnivore/animal based). It's pretty good, with a definite coconut flavor. You can add things like peanuts/raisins. The chocolate bar molds can be purchased online.
In small metal bowl
50 g coconut oil
1/8 teaspoon salt
30 g cocoa powder
30 g dried milk powder (whole milk, Nido brand)
50 g powdered sugar
Melt coconut oil in a double boiler ( can also just put the metal bowl in a small pot filled with water, so the bowl is touching the boiling water)
In another bowl, measure out the rest of the ingredients, and mix well.
Stir the other ingredients into the melted coconut oil
Pour into chocolate bar molds
