Cadburys Flake

[KnobblyWand]

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?

The Aldi's milk chocolate bars beat them all.

Much prefer a twirl to a flake because of the mess as pp's have said.

Why all the hate for snickers? It's my favourite! My second favourite is happy hippos similar to, but better than a bueno imo. I always pick some up when I'm in poundland, I have to hide them from the kids though

We have gone through a pack of 4 since yesterday!! Love them!

@FiveGoMadInDorset

A Ripple is much better than a flake

Totally agree

Flakes are too flakey

It's all about the bounty or starbar

A Ripple straight from the freezer!

@DeltaFlyer

I like a flake but it's messy.. A twirl on the other hand is the work of a genius. A flake with a coating of extra chocolate

I've always called Twirls a 'safety Flake', because it doesn't end up all down your jumper...

A flake is perfect and turns a glass bowl of halved, hulled strawberries with a scoop of finest vanilla ice cream into pure heaven the cook may snaffle extra flake whilst in the kitchen

I mourn the Aztec bar.

Unfortunately chocolate gives me acid reflux

So much wasted chocolate though! Unless you catch it in something and snort it afterwards.

Ripple all the way

Had a Caramel for the first time in years this week. Was looking forward to the lovely soft caramel but, no, it was rock solid When did they stop being soft and gooey?!

Mind you, last time I had one they came in those folded foil packets so probably about 15 years ago, but even so! Reaffirmed why I usually bypass Cadbury nowadays lol

Flakes are not nearly as good as they were! How have you not noticed? . It started when they stopped the lovely twisty wrapping but then the recipe changed and the Flake became some horrible melty sludge.

I used to love them. When I got really rich I would buy the five packs and keep them in the fridge so they were on hand when I wanted. And yes, particularly lovely in the bath.

What I want to know is why Topics always hang around in dusty little corner shops, why they've never been one of the most popular (given that everybody loves roasted hazelnuts) and why are they so bloody small?

I like a Picnic, I do...

Urgh they're all gross palm oil yuck

@LadyMonicaBaddingham

There's WAAAAY too much going on in a Picnic. It's like the chocolate factory had some kind of episode, and made all the bars at the same time. Very confusing in the mouth.

Lion bar! Not so busy as a picnic.
But I love a boost.

They used to be nice. Not anymore

Try melting a flake in the microwave... they don’t, they can set on fire though.

Does anybody else find that Double Deckers and Lion Bars hurt their mouth? My top and bottom teeth don't meet in time and I end up 'biting' them with the roof of my mouth.

Yanbu...as long as it comes with a side helping of 99

Too messy. Was a fan of a snow flake back in the day though, as the milk coating minimized the crumbly wastage. Loved a Mars Delight too and flight wished they would all come back

Love Flakes. Cadbury still make divine chocolate, I don't care what anyone says.

Yabu. Too messy. Half of it ends up on the floor! Best in an icecream as the chocolate gods divined.
Ripples are better.
