I had no idea Swaziland produced chocolate, are there any brands? I've seen Nbgwano bars from Lesotho but never Swaziland.
Anyway, in my opinion the best chocolate in Europe is made by fazer in Finland. Either Appelsin, Fazerina or Geisha bars are the best.
Fazer is pronounced something liker 'Fotser'.

I'm sure I remember Merci chocolates. The ones I've tried had a cherry in them, suspended in some kind of liquor or syrup. Anyone remember them?

Mon Cheri? They've been around for years and years. At least since the late 60s.
I am sure I have seen something recently with a similar sounding name. Small chunk of chocolate with a pink wrapper?

Cheri is feminine, so surely it's Ma Cheri?
Being so homophobic I'm very surprised you can't work out that as 'mon' and 'ma' mean 'my', a man is far more likely to use the term 'cheri' referring to a female. Therefore the masculine is appropriate.

It is MON CHERI and yes it is in a pink wrapper. They have been around for yeas and years and there used to be an advert on TV with people singing in French accents 'Mon Cheri! Mon Cheri! La la la la la, do do do do do do do do do do do do Mon Cheri!'
