 In my opinion, chocolate sells itself, so I went for a minimalist shot...
I know it won't do well, but I don't care how the voting goes because I got to eat lots of chocolate!! :P

I really like the contrast between the dark and light. The picture might be a little more effective though, if you have a few pieces of chocolate (possibly with a bite taken out of one?) placed in front. Maybe that's just cos my mouth doesn't water from packages alone.

Too much background, it draws away from the subject. The angle is too straight on as well, try a different angle.

this is a nice ad.Product is well displayed and place well within the comp to let text flow easily. The only pick I have is the glare from the wrapper. This might be fixed in a light tent I think. Otherwise excellent job.

I wish you could have done something more than prop up the bar because i really love this product... It looks plain and unimaginative.

I think the entire name should be able to be read on a product for an ad... good setup otherwise. Lighting is good.

I think if one of the chocolates was also part of the comp it would sell better.
