Managed to get my hands on the new orange flavoured Twirl bar which was released today. AIBU to drive to all the local supermarkets and buy the lot?! So delicious 🤤

YANBU as long as you send me a box too 😛🍫

Where did you find them? Not seen one yet.

nitgel · 04/10/2019 11:33

Ive been looking for them to no avail ! I tried the frys orange choc but wasnt impressed

AFingerofFudge · 04/10/2019 11:34

Does it taste much different to a Terry's chocolate orange???

Ellabella989 · 04/10/2019 12:04

I found mine in the co-op. There weren’t many left though. It tastes a bit like a choc orange but maybe not quite as orangey.

I am ALL OVER THIS. Going to the co-op later specifically to hunt them down. Although thinking on it, I might go before school finishes....

I was the same with orange kit kats a few years ago.

Does anyone know if the orange aero still exists? Orange flavoured chocolate is definitely the best combo 💘

Tried one yesterday and not really that keen on them. Not a lot of flavour, and, being Cadbury's. the chocolate isn't great.

Very disappointing.

MintyMabel · 04/10/2019 12:26

I love a twirl. Didn’t know there was an orange one. Off to the Co Op!

ScreamingValenta · 04/10/2019 12:30

Not for me! I like the taste of chocolate and I like the taste of oranges. I don't mind them combined in the form of an orange cream but orange-flavoured chocolate is yeuchy.

You can still get orange aeros - they are lovely. And slightly off topic - I saw marzipan and mint, and mango and mint After Eights in B&M yesterday - not quite sure how I feel about that - I shall have to sample them to decide Grin

BrightYellowDaffodil · 04/10/2019 12:31

YABVVU - orange and milk chocolate as a combination is the work of the devil!

Ellabella989 · 04/10/2019 12:33

Shocked to the choc orange haters. It’s the best!!!! But I don’t like caramel in my choc which most people find weird

ScreamingValenta · 04/10/2019 12:35

I'm not a caramel fan either, Ellabella. Mint is the only flavour I like mixed in with chocolate.

Green & Blacks do a 75% chocolate with orange oil, it's amazing

Jimmers · 04/10/2019 12:55

SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!!! What is this new chocolate heaven that I knew nothing about?! Am on train to Wales & am going straight to Co-op when I get off 😝

Get out of here with your fancy posh chocolate 75% bollocks!

This thread is for lovers of a standard dirty milk chocolate twirl with added orangey goodness.

We like our chocolate cheap and we like it twirly!

@genehuntlover that sounds really nice, will have to track it down!

@jimmers apparently it’s sold out now almost everywhere. I bet there will be riots on the streets soon if they don’t bring more stock in ASAP

It is suitable for coeliacs so I’m absolutely buzzing. Terry and his bloody choc orange has a contamination warning. I’ve missed choc orange so much

Ellabella989 · 04/10/2019 13:08

I’m still waiting for the day that Cadbury’s bring out chocolate orange buttons.

@Ellabella989 Lidl do a version of an orange aero. It’s nowhere near as nice but it’s alright. Think it’s called Bubbly and is in the choc section as a big bar.
Who has spotted an orange aero and where? Have not seen them for years?
I love any chocolate flavors except RAISINS squished fly choc invaders

PigletJohn · 04/10/2019 13:32

I used to get chocolates oranges, but the horrid choc is soft and sticky now, made with palm oil.

I blame Kraft/Mondelez

Still looking for a snappy substitute

nitgel · 04/10/2019 13:38

Co op do their own fair trade dark chocolate with orange that's lovely

emphasisofmatter · 04/10/2019 13:40

Orange aero is available at Aldi in their Christmas chocolate section!! Oh it's wonderful.

emphasisofmatter · 04/10/2019 13:41

I've, ahem, gone to Aldi two days in a row because of the orange aero bar...

LtJudyHopps · 04/10/2019 14:24

I just went to a big tesco and they didn’t have them :( not even an empty shelf just didn’t have them!
