It appears they are not doing their white chocolate and strawberry Christmas trees this year. Only the stupid salted caramel and milk chocolate ones.

They were the entire point of December.

They have RUINED my Christmas Xmas Angry

Isn't a walnut whip without a walnut just a whip?

EvilDoctorBallerinaRoastDuck · 05/12/2017 21:48

ColonelJack you've just given me an excuse to keep chomping on cranberry sausage rolls! Xmas Grin

ColonelJackONeil · 05/12/2017 21:50

It has to be done! This might be your last chance to get that porky-cranberry goodness.

Does anyone remember the Fry's Creme that was all different flavours?

Piggywaspushed · 05/12/2017 21:56

Just been back a few pages.

I forgot those Walls gingerbread sandwiches existed and now I am devastated. I love anything gingerbread.

My corner shop sells gingerbread Viennese Whirls

To the PP who said you can get Walnut Whips in M and S, I say bleurgh. M and S chocolate is yuk.

Ocado claim to do cinnamon ice cream. they had a pic in their magazine. Not on their bloody website though is it??!

OP - I do no like white chocolate. Not one little bit. Sorry

I like the fact that Piggy felt the need to apologise to me for not liking white chocolate. I’m promoting them to my favourite.

There is hope out there: Tesco have chocolate churros in again!

tallulahfallulah · 05/12/2017 23:21

Missing the point of the thread a bit here but ALemonyPea John Whaiye has a Viennese mince pie recipe which looks lovely www.johnwhaite.com/christmas-baking/2015/11/10/viennese-whirl-mince-pies

alliburton · 06/12/2017 05:44

simple, why not slowly melt toffos in a saucepan, add 3 large table spoons of salt, stir and serve... deliciousness on a shoestring.

CosyLulu · 06/12/2017 05:49

Sosmix. Anyone vegetarian in the 90s would have probably eaten this. Nowhere to be seen these days and I CRAVE the taste of it.

Five Centres - loved that.

Anyone remember Ice Breaker? Minty chocolate. Amazing tv commercial.

Sigh ...

It's a comfort to know that I'm not the only one who gets the rage when favourites regularly become discontinued.

Have you seen the white chocolate ring which M&S are advertising? At £20 it would very much be a luxury alternative.

Really, we should all dress up as giant white chocolate trees and march on Parliament waving placards and chanting. Xmas Wink

squishee · 06/12/2017 09:38

OP have you considered running to the press with your DM sad face at the ready?

rainydaysfun · 06/12/2017 09:58

Hahaha I came here through the newsletter feed as I saw Iceland and I thought why is someone so angry with an entire nation? Obviously then I realised it is the retailer rather than the country of geysers, volcanoes and Bjork :)))

OJZJ · 06/12/2017 10:31

It's ok honey i share your pain....the only way I can get Ben and jerrys cherry Garcia or chunky monkey is to drive 30 miles to the only cinema in the area that does b&jand purchase a film I rarely want to see with my scoop of icecream (that I shouldn't eat due to lactose intolerance) and I am still in therapy once a week for the loss of frys five centres (not festive I do realise but still yummy)

Biddie191 · 06/12/2017 10:31

HoneyDragon they do the christmas tree lollies - groceries.iceland.co.uk/iceland-3-strawberry-ice-cream-trees-270ml/p/48363?utm_source=aw&utm_medium=aff&utm_campaign=Skimlinks&awc=7868_1512555924_79421d80d56749bf0bd33225d49478f2 - and at 25p a packet of 3, they're a bargain!! Maybe reduced to pacify you.....

StephiD3 · 06/12/2017 10:37

The old style crisps from M&S - the new beef ones just aren’t the same.

Also ready salted chipsticks - why keep salt & vinegar Angry

I shall join ye humble folk on the quest, but only on the condition that I'm rewarded in marzipan fruits. I don't like the sound of these Christmas trees of which you speak of Xmas Grin

smilingontheinside · 06/12/2017 15:50

Honeydragon I wouldnt bother with Geldolf, he was at a concert in wastore at in the summer a complete waste of stage time, rude and off his head on something. I thing the mnet massive would do a sterling job Grin
