Most underrated chocolate bar. Nobody goes, "ooh I really fancy a flake babe, grab me one from the co-op" do they? It's always a Snickers or a Bueno.

But they're the best. Better than all the rest.

AIBU?

I'm a BIG fan of a star bar.

But a PP mentioned Double Decker. That's a close second.

@LadyfromtheBelleEpoque

You are all mad. A 99. Flake plus ice cream. Divine.
This is the only thing a flake use useful for.
Nutrigrainygoodness · 07/02/2021 21:00

What is wrong with you all?! A white bueno is the dogs bollcks.
Flakes are fine if they've been in the fridge first. I don't want a claggy melting flake.

Is not use.

Flakes are my favourites. I keep them in the freezer and they become so brittle. I do the same with Easter eggs.

ParkheadParadise · 07/02/2021 21:04

I'd rather have a peppermint aero or a toffeecrisp

Creamcrackersandricecakes · 07/02/2021 21:06

I'd like to see this brought back......

I have honestly forgotten about flakes. I kind of gave up on chocolate batsover the last few years as they now taste greasy. Must try a flake again (despite the mess). Hopefully they are like twirls which have not changed too much.

NiceGerbil · 07/02/2021 21:09

God how I live to sniff a white towel.

I do a lot of white washes due to the amount of white shorts I own. I like to wear them for rolkerskating. Only when i have my period obviously.

yvanka · 07/02/2021 21:13

Flake is too big a commitment. I have to really focus on it while eating to prevent making a mess, which inevitably happens anyway. Who's got the time?

DinosaurDiana · 07/02/2021 21:16

Ferrero Rochet ?
When they first came out you bought them individually for 10p.

StanfordPines · 07/02/2021 21:19

It's always a Snickers or a Bueno.

It’s never a snickers or a bueno. Never.

BakewellGin1 · 07/02/2021 21:22

@dinosaurdiana YES Ferrero Roche I love them... Along with Malteasers...

Flakes - No but Twirls are amazing the work of a genius (although Spiras were my all time favourite)

lojojomo · 07/02/2021 21:25

A Twirl is better. It's two tidy flakes.

Chanandlerbong01 · 07/02/2021 21:25

I would request a flake, ripple or twirl! Never a bueno or snickers!

JimmyTheBrave · 07/02/2021 21:26

Only someone under the age of 12 would choose a Kinder Bueno surely?

TheImpossibleGirls · 07/02/2021 21:26

I want a Flake now Envy

There's a cafe near here that melt them into the hot chocolate. I think the owner deserves a knighthood.

On the Double Decker note though- what has happened to them? Tiny, the layers have shrunk, and I can't justify my fillings on them any more.

JimmyTheBrave · 07/02/2021 21:26

@Wearywithteens

Wispa is the thinking person’s flake.
Agreed! No mess
R08ERTA · 07/02/2021 21:27

I’m so old I can’t eat a Flake without seeing that advert. So I have to eat Twirls.

Chickenwing · 07/02/2021 21:29

I love a Snickers, why are they getting hate? I also love Flake. And Twirl. And Wispa. And Toffee Crisp. And Dairy Milk. And Galaxy Caramel. And Creme Eggs!..... I hate being on a diet Sad

WombatChocolate · 07/02/2021 21:29

I’d like Minstrels or Galaxy Caramel please.

That’s said, if anyone turned up with any of the bars mentioned, I’d gladly wolf them.

Morten · 07/02/2021 21:29

@StanfordPines

It's always a Snickers or a Bueno.

It’s never a snickers or a bueno. Never.

Exactly this!

A Bueno GrinGrinGrinGrinGrinnope it's not on anybody's radar.

sunflowersandbuttercups · 07/02/2021 21:29

Anything Cadbury is an abomination these days. It tastes AWFUL.

ThistlyPerf · 07/02/2021 21:29
