Iceland do a surprisingly good 'luxury' milk chocolate - very reasonable and no palm oil.

RedDwarves · 29/09/2018 00:36

Haighs is the best chocolate in Australia.

But it costs a bomb and is difficult to get your hands on, so I settle for Cadbury. Aldi chocolate is fine, but would involve me going to Aldi, which I don't ordinarily do.

I used to think Cadbury was repellant, but I'm thinking they've reined in whatever changes they made, because it's not as bad as it was a couple of years ago.

Montezuma Buttons are gorgeous but I only bought them by mistake and now Baulk at the ludicrous price

Waitrose own range

Another vote for Lindt - no other name brand chocolate is like it used to be Sad

Tesco have some new choc bars out Zesty Orange dark chocolate Mint dark chocolate and Rich Coffee milk chocolate Ive treated DM to a bar of the coffee one as shes had a shit time health wise recently. Not tried it myself yet DH LOVES Whitakers Coffee Creams but they are dark choc which he prefers on a coffee sweet. He was disappointed to find that Tescos coffee bar came in milk

I was given a box of Roses recently Anyone remember when the Hazlenut in Caramel was a fairly chunky half moon sweet Its bloody shrunk.

I love Lindt Plan Milk Chocolate bars (not the filled Lindor crap)

VetOnCall · 29/09/2018 07:26

Waitrose 49% cocoa milk chocolate is divine. It's like a cross between milk and dark and I have to ration it or I'd eat it by the bar.

Sainsburys own. Seriously. It's amazing, no palm oil.
Co Op own fairtrade is also very nice.

Branleuse · 29/09/2018 08:29

Freddos are still old style cadbury.
Im addicted

EleanorLavish · 29/09/2018 08:32

Such a shame that so much is horrible now. The kids are allowed a treat in the newsagents on a Friday, and by golly, I could stand there all day and not want any of it.
So many yummy memories...Starbar, Lion Bar, Rolos, Cadbury, KitKat....all vile now.
I like Lindt Nocciolatte, and M&S Alpine nutty toblerone thing is quite nice. They do a none M&S hazelnut milk chocolate bar that is yummy too.
I wonder if shops you’ve a downturn in sales?

StealthPolarBear · 29/09/2018 08:33

Godiva

KimberWozRobbed · 29/09/2018 08:39

I second the Iceland recommendation. It's half price in my local store at the moment though so they could be phasing it out...

Also enjoy lindt milk chocolate and lidls.

I think they've changed the Freddo recipe Sad
I had two one yesterday and they it tasted sickly sweet like American chocolate.

PiperPublickOccurrences · 29/09/2018 09:28

Aldi Moser Roth or Lindt.

Basically, anything which doesn't have palm oil in it - you have to get into the habit of reading the label.

Palm oil free costs more but the difference in taste is night and day.

HelenaDove · 29/09/2018 15:05

A couple of MNers like the new salted caramel fudge Kit Kat Chunky.

Alex3101 · 29/09/2018 15:26

Also I really like the Moo Free chocolate.

Just tried the Tesco Rich Coffee Milk Chocolate Can hardly taste any coffee in it at all.

theboxofdelights · 06/10/2018 20:04

The only milk chocolate I like is the 54% Montezuma dark side of milk or whatever it is called. It is lovely.

MinaPaws · 07/10/2018 11:20

Lindt milk chocolate makes me purr. It's a bit caramel-y and really silky. Not keen on Montezuma as it's so grainy.

NunsNunsReverseReverse · 07/10/2018 12:17

Lidl. The bog standard one in the blue wrapping. It tastes how Galaxy used to taste. To me anyway.

SharonBottsPoundOfGrapes · 07/10/2018 12:20

I occasionally buy Tiffin/mint crisp from the Irish section of the Ethnic aisle. It's dear but worth it.
