65% cocoa chocolate has no place on malteasers

Tried the dark ones as my sister said hey are awful. I didn't believe her. She was right. For the first time in my life I have resealed a bag of Malteasers. If they had used normal dark chocolate. But they just don't work.

Totally agree - couldn't give them away!

Lovemusic33 · 19/07/2023 21:38

I agree, I tried them a while ago and thought they were horrible 🤢

Toddlerteaplease · 19/07/2023 22:57

Can see why!

We bought these by mistake. Didn't realise until we were at the cinema in the dark, film already started. They're vile!

Toddlerteaplease · 20/07/2023 02:26

@iatealltheminieggs that must have spoiled your film!

Didn't know they existed tbh, I know it's "adult" to like dark chocolate, but bleurgh, pair it with sweet honeycomb and I can imagine it's very shit.

I think they’re delicious, much nicer than standard malteasers. Although now I come to think of it, a mix of standard milk chocolate and dark chocolate ones would be pretty good as well

Oh my god! So I live dark chocolate and I love malteasers and then my idiot husband brought those back for me! I was absolutely gutted (slight exaggeration).! He didn't understand why. Let's start a petition

It's not honeycomb it's actually delightful on honeycomb 😂😂

I haven't tried these but I probably won't like them as I like the white chocolate ones best

Northernsouloldies · 20/07/2023 05:29

White chocolate... Work of the devil.

Lovehearts82 · 20/07/2023 06:16

Well I loveeee Maltesers and hateeee Dark chocolate, so I read this and thought bleughhh. Then had a mental moan about how After Eights should really bring back the Milk chocolate version in the blue box. Then I noticed after googling its "After Eight" not "After Eights" as I always thought they were called????

Toddlerteaplease · 21/07/2023 04:55

They did milk chocolate After Eight?

Yes, years ago, I had them, so delicious. They may have only been out for Christmas or something, in a blue box. I'll google a pic, but I've never seen them since 😕.

Lovehearts82 · 21/07/2023 07:01

These were them.

Agree. It has no place calling itself chocolate!

Toddlerteaplease · 21/07/2023 07:58

Not theirs the white ones. But I do like white chocolate. I usually love dark chocolate. But bot the strong stuff and apparently not on malteasrs!

I binned them 🤮

WobblyStool · 21/07/2023 08:04

I would not even try one.

And please, there is no ‘a’ in Maltesers 😳

HAF1119 · 21/07/2023 08:13

I still have most the bag of these in my treat drawer.... pretty much on their own as everything else gets eaten 😂 they've been in there about a month and still not gotten desperate enough to return to them!
