To think that Double Deckers gave no place in a box of Heroes?

Love Heroes - have always eaten the whole box, unlike Celebrations where Snickers and Bounty are always left. But I was given a box yesterday and it had 6 mini double Deckers in it. Nobody in my family likes Double Deckers. What are Cadbury’s playing at?

Shock hands off the creme egg!! I could never eat a whole creme egg so that lovely overly sugary blast of goodness is a perfect size!

I’ve never tried a double decker, but I’ll have the snickers (always marathon). I used to like bounty but now find it way too sweet.

Love a Double Decker. YABU!

How can you even make this a thing, when those rank eclairs are still in there? Grin

I remember when Double Deckers used to have raisins in, but no one else will believe me! I'm starting to think I imagined it.....

Dh has succumbed to the piles of pouches stacked up in our local shop on offer, apparently, at £2.50 each. One Heroes, one Quality Street and one Celebrations.
Not one of the chocolates in any of that selection tasted how they used to taste. As a pp noted overhead about the creme egg sweet being a sugar overload all of them tasted far too sweet for me, chocolate was greasy and the double decker was thin and tasted nothing like a double decker.

When I was little I used to love diving into the massive Quality Street tin, which your Mother would then keep for ever to keep her home made cakes in.

Oh how I mourn the days when chocolate tasted like chocolate and not the sweet processed rubbish it is now.

WTF? There are people who don’t like double deckers? Shock

CalamityJune · 08/09/2019 09:29

Who on God's Holy Earth doesn't like Double Deckers??????????????

Double Deckers are Premiership

TillyTheTiger · 08/09/2019 09:31

YABU, double deckers are amazing! I feel the need to buy some Heroes now.

Grandadwasthatyou · 08/09/2019 09:32

@whatwouldkatyactuallydonext ..are you thinking about the "Amazin" chocolate bar around in the 70's? The tag line was " Its Amazin what raisins can do"!

Lucked · 08/09/2019 09:34

I am want a Double Decker now.

I used to have one every day in high school. Then I went years without eating them until Cadbury’s mucked up their chocolate and dairy milks were off the table. Yum.

I like eclairs, they can stay!

Loving that double deckers are now in heroes but still not over them taking it crunches and replacing it (for a while anyway) with bastarding toblerone.

MRex · 08/09/2019 09:56

Crunchies - now that's a true queen amongst chocolate bars, what are they playing at with all these changes? Toblerone is ok but let's be honest it's fairly tasteless, nowhere near the quality of a proper nutty chocolate bar like the Green & Blacks almond one.

ScreamingValenta · 08/09/2019 10:05

Does anyone know if the numbers of each are random

Whenever we get them, we seem to get zillions more of the bastarding eclairs Angry.

Double deckers are fab! The creme eggs have no place in a box of Heroes though, imo they should be restricted to Easter, horrible slimy sugary atrocities that they are..

ArtichokeAardvark · 08/09/2019 10:09

Just RTFT. They've taken away Crunchies?!? Whyyyyyy?

autumndreaming · 08/09/2019 10:26

You're wrong, Double Deckers are the queen bee of chocolates!!!

autumndreaming · 08/09/2019 10:27

Flakes and twirls are the devil's work! They're so gritty!

Sh05 · 08/09/2019 10:29

I don't mind the double deckers but they're not the same as the actual bar.
Oh and those tubs are 2 for £7 in Morrisons at the moment

TheQuaffle · 08/09/2019 10:35

YAB so U. Double deckers are amazing.
But....the dinky deckers in the sharing pouch can eff right off.

TheGrump · 08/09/2019 10:35

Nevermind a second referendum on the Brexit deal. The time has clearly come for a referendum on Heroes membership #people'svote

PrettyShiningPeople · 08/09/2019 10:37

They should include mini Boost too!

MaryPopppins · 08/09/2019 10:41

Is this new news?

I LOVE double deckers!

Even more excited for Christmas now. Grin

MRex · 08/09/2019 10:51

Never mind Christmas, Halloween is just around the corner. We get loads of kids round here and get through many boxes.
