Underrated chocolate bars

Ok so I know it’s not strictly a chocolate bar, but last night I had such a craving for a Twix. Haven’t had one in years. Got one today and it’s as good as I remember, the crunch, the caramel and just the right amount of chocolate. So, was just wondering what everyone else’s forgotten favourites are?

I love toffee crisp and can remember when the orange wrapper was milk chocolate (like now) And the blue wrapper was plain chocolate - my favourite. Also like double deckers and star bars. Does anyone remember Delight bars? I loved those.

Fry's Chocolate Cream.

Haven't had a caramac for years, really fancy one now.

Star Bars. Only have about 2 a year but love them.

What about a topic? They were my favourite in the celebration tin before they got rid of them 😢

Milka Oreo bars are amazing but a bit hard to get hold of. Also Boost, Twirl and Mint Aero

I prefer plain chocolate but asked DD (18) and she said Picnic. Or Double Decker at a push.

I had a twix the other day. I'd forgotten how lovely.
I'm a white chocolate fan and had earlier tried the white twix but was v.disappointed.
It can't beat the original.

I’m sure when Boost first appeared it was coconut, not sure when it changed. I would love a dark chocolate toffee crisp.

Caramac buttons, what a disappointment Sad

DS came home with a dark Bounty recently, he thought it was a great new discovery and was excited to share!

Coconut boosters were great - the chocolate coating somehow didn’t bond to the filling so it was messy to eat.

Starbar. Surprising delicious!

Topic. Rarely buy them but when I do I wonder why I don't more often. They do seem to have shrunk though.

winterinmadeira · 03/08/2019 18:09

Lion bars - I don’t have them often but when I do I remember how lush they are

VioletCharlotte · 03/08/2019 18:10

Can you still buy Topics? I've not had one for years, but remember them being good.

Raspberry ruffle bars are yum..they also do mint ones. Mint Aero is a thing of beauty.

Strawberrycreamsundae · 03/08/2019 18:10

Drifter bar or Boost, kept in the fridge or freezer. Cold/frozen chocolate cannot be beaten 😋

libertyminty · 03/08/2019 18:11

Star bars are lovely, always forget about them too. Also adding Toblerone to my list, though it’s got to be the big one so you have a huge chunk to bite into, the wee ones aren’t the same.

The mint ruffle bars taste soapy to me.

Jaffacakebeast · 03/08/2019 18:15

I used to love fuses!! Now I like a star bar or a time out.... can also never resist a bounty. Wouldn’t be Christmas without a chocolate orange and some after 8s... and Easter it has to mini eggs. Think my love for chocolate is a bit much lol

Cadbury’s marble - they’re never any where anymore it’s heart breaking. Do they still do them?

4yearsnosleep · 03/08/2019 18:16

Boost & Double Decker
