Right. I am sick of the piss poor disappointment that is Cadbury’s Roses. A massive tin of these used to be our festive favourites until somewhere between 5-10 years ago when the ingredients changed and they became inedible.
I still like Quality Street because they Tate like they always did (which isn’t dating much as they were never that great) but they get a bit dull. Celebrations are ‘ok’ but just don’t say Christmas like the others do, and don’t speak to me of the abomination that is Heroes.
So...are any of the own brand equivalents any good? I seem to remember trying that waitrose one’s a couple of years ago and they were ok.
(And before the chocolate snobs descend and start saying that they will only eat the finest Peruvian 80% cocoa chocolate, I am blatantly talking about big cheap tins/boxes of cheap and cheerful chocolates here. Chocolate snobbery absolutely has a place - I like some lovely quality chocolate myself sometimes, but this is not the thread for it).
