No details yet. He says he will post about it at length tomorrow and it will be worth the wait. So this is just a placemarker for the moment.

On a micro level this works for a chocolate finger.

On a macro level, try it with a Twix and hot chocolate.

But have you tried celery and almond soup? It is a thing of beauty.

I struggle to believe this! 🤢

Twix and coffee is my preference, but Penguins and tea are also very good. I find the chocolate coating stops the problem of crumbs in you drink.

I’ve never thought of dunking anything with wafer - I’m not sure I like the idea of that at all.

Blimey, cake, "bored"? Just send them over to Puffinland.

I got bored with a box of Guerlain praline shellfish things

Nah. Photographs or that never happened, Cake!

sorry, Fuzzy, replied to you but tagged Cake??

Leaving aside the pros and cons of dunking for a moment - where do we stand on the issue of deep frying the various chocolate bars?

I've never had one myself, but occasionally I do find myself wondering if I should before I die.

I don’t mind a deep fried snickers when available. I accept its controversial.

Would absolutely try, it sounds lovely and summery!

I long to one day try a deep fried Mars bar.

I once had deep fried battered Mars bar nuggets served as dessert in a gastropub Scottish-themed evening. Oh, how I sneered when I read the menu. But they were actually pretty good.

SabrinaThwaite · 06/08/2026 20:42

Stonehaven - known for the Cutty Sark, Lord Reith, whirling balls of molten tar on Hogmanay and inventing the deep fried Mars bar.

AngleofRepose · 06/08/2026 20:46

Having given it a lot of thought and serious deliberation for the greater part of the day, and having read some of the others' preferences, I have come to the conclusion that dunking is a good thing, but only with a Twix and some coffee (hot chocolate in a pinch).

I therefore conclude that you are wrong, all wrong, All Hail The Twix Dunking You're So Wrong!

My ex took a bounty into our local chippy at the time to see if they would fry it. They agreed they would if they could have half as there were the two small ones in a pack. Both pronounced it good.

Oh now that sounds lovely - never thought of a deep fried Bounty, but I could definitely see that working. It would be like bringing the tropics to Scotland.

SidewaysOtter · 06/08/2026 21:31

I've never tried a deep fried Mars bar but I really want to. I've also heard of deep fried butter which sounds dreadful and amazing at the same time.

Is the butter in batter?

Apparently so!

lcakethereforeIam · 06/08/2026 21:56

Bounty's are dead to me since they stopped making the dark chocolate ones.

I'd love to try a deep fried Mars bar.

Would it be the planet or the Roman god made out of wrappers?

helderste · 06/08/2026 22:03

Nigella did a recipe for deep fried bounties with pineapple in Nigella Bites.

Totally agree re dark choc Bounties.

I love deep fried halloumi and mozzarella sticks and fried Brie with fruit compote (not all at once!) but not sure about butter!

murasaki · 06/08/2026 22:20

I just can't see how the butter maintains structural integrity within the batter given the heat.

But I'd like someone else to try to achieve it and report back.

Perhaps you have to deep freeze the butter first, like you would ice cream for a Baked Alaska?

The same way that a baked Alaska works, I think. The batter is essentially a heat shield, like the meringue in a BA.

But...you don't eat butter on its own unless you're our dog so why would you deep fry it?

SirChenjins · 06/08/2026 22:22
