I just really fancy some. You can get orange-flavoured everywhere now, no need to tacke the Terry's chocolate orange - but where is all the banana-flavoured stuff?

(Yes I know about the Hotel Choc selector, they can bugger off at £4.50 a slab!)

Melt some chocolate on the hob and add some banana essence.

Yeah op just get the banana essence out the cupboard, problem solved Grin

I used to make hot chocolate with bananas flavoured milk for the kids... Soooo good haven't done it in ages going to have to get some banana milk in the shopping!

LionessesRules · 13/09/2022 12:43

Banana flavour should be banned in all forms.

However, OP, can I propose you melt some bar chocolate (plain or milk), then slice a fresh banana over it, and add a scoop of icecream?

The world aisle in Asda occasionally have had it, or an Eastern European grocery store, as others said! Failing that, take 1 banana & 1 jar of Nutella…

I once tried an apple flavoured Milka bar in Germany and it was actually amazing ! I say that as someone who dislikes fruit flavours in chocolate but apparently it was only a limited edition . French click website sells a lot of interesting chocolate from France I’m sure I’ve saw banana chocolate and spread on there .

It's so funny how cultural tastes and norms are formed isn't it @Bubblebubblebah ?

Slightly off topic, does anyone remember the bars of chocolate from the 70's/80's that had a flavoured liquid filling - like cherry, orange etc. They weren't by Cadbury or any other well known brand. The old couple across the road from me always used to buy them. I think I may have seen them in a pound shop before? I can't remember what they were called.

Anyway, I wonder if they had a banana filling?

I made this to show my feelings clearly 😂

Artificial banana flavour is disgusting IMO. Better to get a real banana and drizzle with melted chocolate (ice cream optional)!

CookPassBabtridge · 13/09/2022 16:40

I would definitely buy this. One of my favourite cake combos is banana and chocolate!

HandbagsnGladrags · 13/09/2022 16:58

Because it's disgusting and shouldn't exist?

Last year b and m sold an imported bar of dairy milk with little bits of banana flavoured marshmallow in it. What a treat that was - haven’t been able to find it again

TrashyPanda · 13/09/2022 17:07

Banana and chocolate make total sense together

oh no!

total desecration of chocolate.

i loathe banana in any shape or form. The texture is especially vomit-inducing. It’s like it is rotting away into vomit.

Soubriquet · 13/09/2022 17:07

Eugh!!!!

I get banana flavoured eclair style toffees from Sainsburys

TheLadyGrayson · 13/09/2022 17:11

Love banana ice cream and yoghurts 😋 Whittards did a white hot chocolate flavoured with banana last year, I tried it near Christmas and it was surprisingly good! Not sure if they’re selling it still though.

@theviewfrommywindow
Were they Hellas bars?
Loads of flavours

INeverSawAPurpleCow · 13/09/2022 19:03

Why would you want to?

Chickpeablether · 13/09/2022 19:07

Karl Fazer is a chocolate from Finland. You can order it online. They do a banana chocolate! It's really great:)

ValBiro · 13/09/2022 19:14

Why are people surprised by this combo?! Banana loaf with chocolate chunks? That's a thing right... (Off to check if we have any overripe bananas lurking in the kitchen!)

Ponoka7 · 13/09/2022 19:14

For those thinking that it is strange, have you never had strawberries and banana on a waffle, covered in chocolate?

SomethingFast · 13/09/2022 19:15

Bananas make me 🤢
So if the op finds any banana chocolate they are more than welcome to have my share

CaptainBeakyandhisband · 13/09/2022 19:16

You need to go to Japan and get some Tokyo Banana Kit Kats

QuebecBagnet · 13/09/2022 19:20

I love banana chocolate. That old Cadbury bar was lush. I’m also partial to Ben and Jerry Chunky Monkey ice cream which is chocolate and banana. They stopped selling it for ages but then was back in stock in Asda recently.
