I have a screen shot of some colorful chocolate wrappers. I need to identify the brand/company.

THey look like those little square chocolates that have really thin fillings in them. But I can't think of the name!!! Ah, it just hit me! Ghirardelli!!!

I wish they were Ghiradelli, the size is right, but the wrapping is very different. They are a clue in the Microsoft viral marketing campaign promoting their new Vista software (long story). I'll try to post a higher res version tonight. And a cut of the intact pieces on a dining cart tray. 'squeek'

Ok, I found this at the MSN shopping site: http://beta.shopping.msn.com/prices/shp/?itemId=118680255 Lindt Chocolates!
If you google Lindt Chocolates in the images area you'll see all kinds of packaging.

I would have guessed mini Dove bars too.' Lindt Chocolate Lindor Truffles are my favorite! Yum!

The most colorful Lindt are truffles. I'd love to see a better picture of some of these lindt bars:
The closests I've found so far is Ritter Sport, but the coloring is off. The one's I'm looking for have a red square in the middle, not white.
Thanks for all your help, please keep looking. I'll post a better quality picture tonight. 'squeek'

Now I'm starting to wonder if they are hotel labels on the chocolate.

Which are the ones you need to identify? The ones with the ducks on look like a special edition - no brand name or anything. Are you sure you need the brand name, I mean maybe the answer is something more generic?

The ones I want to identify were from the first clips. The scene is set in a hotel room. So if they are not commercial chocolate minibars, maybe they are generic with hotel labeling (like the ducks are from a hotel chain) - hostess chocolate - generic foil with labels printed just for the specific hotel.

Nope, no luck, sorry. It can't be Ritter because the logo is always red, and the Lindt ones only have that square logo on some of the bars, and then it's off to the side whereas this is central. If there's a hotel with a red rectangular logo like that one your hotel idea makes sense.

It seems those hotel chocolates are called neapolitan chocolates. If you're still searching that might help. I think you're right though, that it's a hotel chain.

Kona, the duck chocolates come from the Peabody Hotel. Look at this blog, it's the exact same picture. The quest for the elusive other candy continues... http://www.gregcons.com/KateBlog/HotelChocolates.aspx

You'll notice that to the right of her blog, on the "menu" there is a mention of "vista." I'm trying to follow those links, and I think somehow we can wind up at the answer to this mystery!
