Boost, before there was a risk of peanut cross-contamination.

@waltzingparrot I’m with you - the Star Bar wins hands down but they are quite hard to find these days annoyingly.

Itsagrandoldteam · 15/02/2024 19:11

Cherry Ripe - Australian but you can sometimes find them in B & M
Bounty
Ruffles - raspberry coconut bars

Mrsjayy · 15/02/2024 19:13

Frys cream or a Ripple are my favourites a bar of green and blacks if I'm being fancy.

Now I really want chocolate! I’ve recently stopped drinking & seem to be craving sweet stuff more ( missing the sugar from the alcohol)
Swiss chocolate such as Milka. I remember going to Switzerland on holiday as a kid & buying the most delicious chocolate bars filled with fruit flavours such as raspberry or pineapple.
Lindt
Giant Cadburys Buttons from the fridge
Plain Bounty
Snickers
Green & Blacks

@Itsagrandoldteam have you ever tried a Cherry Ripe Layers? Absolutely to die for. They do a Picnic version too.

no - off to google, I had to resort to ordering Cherry Ripe from ebay, they are delicious

I feel like twirls are the premium texture for plain chocolate, love the crumbly but not too crumbly-ness.

Wispas, on the other hand, are most unsatisfying and a far from premium experience.

I like the dairy milk marvellous creations with the jelly beans and popping candy in.

That said, I gave up eating chocolate over six months now. Not a morsel has touched my lips. I was definitely addicted so decided cold turkey was the only approach.

Mallowmarshmallow · 15/02/2024 19:23

I also love(d) a picnic (went through a phase of a daily picnic), boost (yum) and a caramel.

Mallowmarshmallow · 15/02/2024 19:24

This reminded me of something called Vice Versas (I think) from the 1990s.
They were a bit like minstrels but were a mix of white chocolate buttons in a milk choc shell, and other were milk chocolate buttons in a white chocolate shell. Anyone else remember them?!

A Twirl and a brew.

YES

BrainInAJar · 15/02/2024 20:02

@TheLonelyStarbucksLovers yes I remember Vice Versas. I can still see the packet in my head.

On these sorts of threads I normally mention the Secret Bar. (RIP)
