Not Caramac!!!!

[LadyMacB]

Hot on the heals of the news that Mars are discontinuing the Dark Chocolate Bounty, Nestle have confirmed they are discontinuing Caramac.

I’m in confectionary mourning.

I still mourn the loss of Galaxy Truffles in boxes/tins/tubs of Celebrations. Replaced with a Twix...a bloody Twix?!?!

When I was wee I used to get a caramac and a twist'n'squeeze from the ice cream van. That was about 30 years ago. Can't remember the last time I had one, think I'll grab one before they go.

I was gutted about dark chocolate bounty, but please not Caramac. I think the problem is that it’s not easily available so demand falls etc.

I should be gutted but in truth I haven't bought one for years, so it's partly my fault.

I am still getting over Pyramints being discontinued in about 1990.

It's the only chocolate type thing dp can eat. Our children are dashing round buying up all the ones they can find to give him for Christmas!

Dark bounty are ace... Caramac I hated even as a kid disgustingly sweet.

I think it's for the best. Seeing as it tastes rank.

Caramilk is also gross.

oh yes, now those were delicious.

Pyramints are the holy grail of lost chocolate.

Under appreciated in their time, we can now look back with wiser, older eyes, and see their value.

If they were reintroduced it would be a great, great day.

FGS, is this a plot to stop me eating chocolate altogether? I suppose it'll be good for my waistline, but I love dark chocolate Bounty and caramac.

Mind you, I've never really got over the loss of dark chocolate Walnut Whip 😭

Caramac hasnt tasted like Caramac for years.. its all 'lardy' now.
I used to love it, but wouldnt buy it these days!

Didn't Caramac disappear for a while about 25 years ago? I'm sure I remember it coming back. I'd still love a mint cracknel or a coffee walnut whip.

Oo, that sort of makes some sort of sense as I always associate the colour with breast fed baby poo.

First Topic now Caramac..fucking disgrace. 😞

I love caramac but hardly anywhere sold it so no wonder sales are down.

I went onto Tesco to put caramac on my shopping order but all the search did was show the abomination that is caramilk.

They are also getting rid of animal bars which I remeber with great fondness from my childhood.

Milky Bar have started doing a caramel version called Milky Bar Gold which is lush and should satisfy the caramac hole.

As a little girl my grandma used to bring me a large bar of Caramac every time she'd visit. I hated the stuff but never dared tell her. The lad next door always got it 😁

Dark chocolate Bounties on the other hand were and still are a firm favourite of mine.

Each to their own! 😉

No it isn't!

This is sad news indeed.

It's a total travesty!!

I think these taste the same, just softer/meltier.

Sacrilege to say this!

Caramac has changed a lot over the years. I had a bar recently and it's nothing like I remember. The main ingredient is now palm oil, which explains it. I'm not sad it's going.

Interesting! Caramac is made with condensed milk. As are Werther's Original Caramelts, which are far superior. Aldi usually has them.

Yes, I'm sure it did, and years later was back by popular demand.

I love caramac . Caramilk is too chunky and sickly sweet
