Toffee crisp, wtaf!

[SupernaturalAddict]

Fancied a toffee crisp bar and haven't had one for years. I put a four pack on the food delivery and they came. Sat down with a nice brew and wtf?! It was non existant nearly. The only thing i can compare it to is sleeping with a bloke who has a microscopic penis (which i have navigated, once). Two mouth fulls and that's it.

In my head I remember them being at least four times the size. What on Earth is going on?

Picture supplied to show lacking size.

For the poll:-
Yanbu: they are a shadow of their former selves
Yabu: they have never changed size and are massive

Not a toffee crispy fan but they've definitely got smaller

They are so disappointing but if you eat all 4 it might make you feel better.

Is that a real one or the smaller biscuit type ones??

Having not had one for some years I bought a four pack the other day and thought the same. Disappointingly miniature.

A real one out of a four pack.

That's made me really angry and hungry for a proper Toffee Crisp

I've boycotted Nestle since my teens but have always had regret over never being able to eat Toffee Crisps again as they were absolutely the BEST! Looks like i can finally put that regret to bed...

I too would be livid, OP!

It has made me really angry. I ordered some caramel freddo's too and my husband thinks they are bigger.

I just remember them being really thick in the bottom part with lots of caramel on the top. If you cut one of these in half it could be in a tub of heroes or celebrations.

I'd rather pay more and have a proper bar than this.

I send my condolences, however I am slightly gleeful. A toffee crisp is the one thing I have genuinely missed since going vegan many years ago, and you've just eradicated that disappointment.

A toffee crisp, double decker and a wispa gold were my holy trinity of the tesco 3 for £1.20 confectionary section back in the day. Probably also the reason behind my morbid obesity too in hindsight 🤔

I saw a Snickers in the shop the other day and thought they had brought out a fun size version. Nope it's the full price one just half the size now

Prices aren't going up by a lot, so instead we are getting less. It's across everything. I stick with Aldi or melted dark chocolate with bananas/strawberries.

Well to bed, run from it! You are not missing anything.

Freddos! If shrinkflation carries on, these are going to need a microscope just to get the wrapper off! It seems that everything else has gone the same way - but when does it stop? Most of these 'treats' are now so tiny that you need at least two to feel you've had anything.

So I suppose the next step is that the prices will go up...?

Aldi have a Dairyfine version called Caramel Crunch.

Toffee Crisp can no longer be classified as a chocolate bar because it has less than 20% cocoa solids. They have ruined it.
Also Clubs and Penguins are no longer covered in chocolate.

They started making choc bars smaller because the thinking was that people would eat less calories that way and help prevent obesity. Doesn't work. I just eat two!

They aren't even real chocolate any more.

7% of people think YABU!

I honestly despair of Mumsnet (and of course of noveau Toffee Crisps)

OMG, bought a Lion Bar at a football club the other day (so didn't pick it off a shelf to see how tiny it was.). Thought it had come from a multi-pack but it seems that's what they look like now.

Multipack chocolate bars get smaller and smaller. The single size you buy for example in local shops are bigger, but they too have shrunk over the years

31g multipack. 38g individual. 18.7 g toffee crisp biscuit bar.
I’m sure single bars of most chocolate used to be 50g or more

Yeah i had one the other day and it look like someone had sat on it

Looks like the sort of thing you'd find in a tub of bite-sized.

I understand Nestlé bought the brand.

Cadbury also went downhill since they were bought by Kraft (then hived off with Mondelez).

I find quality and value are better at the German supermarkets.

I may have touched a nerve in my op.

Yes it was 54g in the 1990s and then 44g in 2006. Outrageous.
