General / Dinky Deckers
« on: February 03, 2018, 05:28:54 pm »
I got a share bag of mini Double Decker bites called Dinky Deckers. Man, they are GORGEOUS!

£1 Asda but the real price is usually £1.90 - far too much. I'll buy them whenever they're £1 though!

General / The death of Mik Tray
« on: December 30, 2015, 09:21:50 am »
A box of Milk Tray used to be greeted with joy at Christmas 50-odd years ago. The chocs nestled in their own little paper cup and the fillings were delightful: Turkish Delight, Coffee Cream, Lime Barrel, Dairy Fudge... there was something for everyone. The chocolate was creamy and had a lovely dry texture. Nowadays, a box of Milk Tray is a HUGE let-down. The chocolates are greasy-looking and have a disgusting greasy/sickly sweet taste. The fillings are so synthetic-tasting and uninspiring. Cadbury has won the race to the bottom.

General / ANY CHANCE OF GETTING THIS GREAT SITE BUZZING AGAIN?
« on: July 14, 2015, 07:32:59 am »
Sorry for shouting - but I wanted people to see there's a new post.

I know we have Facebook and so on, but this was such a cosy and interesting little cyber community and I really miss it.

Come on 623, Muggy, Lou, Goldencup, Andy/DrWho and anyone else I've left out.

Let's talk chocolate/music/books/politics - or simply just bitch!

New Products / Cadbury Puddles
« on: April 25, 2015, 11:50:28 am »
These are flat CDM bars with 'puddles' (raised miss-shaped domes) of runny filling. The best one is mint, but there is a hazelnut one too.  I feared that the chocolate would be nasty, following Cadbury's take-over by Kraft, but actually it's just like normal CDM.

They are only available in a largish bar, and lots of supermarkets are selling them for £1 instead of about £1.60.

General / What has happened to Cybercandy?
« on: August 12, 2014, 12:13:46 pm »
Unless I am navigating their site incorrectly, the range of stock seems to have drastically reduced. No M&Ms available at all? I was hoping to order some flavoured ones (Mint or Raspberry or Cherry) for my daughter's forthcoming birthday but when I did a 'search' nothing came up.

Also looked for some popular American bars but could not find them. I think a trip to a nearby town with a 'posh' sweetshop is going to be necessary.

What a shame. A few years ago, Cybercandy was heaving with interesting products and browsing their site was a real treat. You felt as if you had eaten the sweets!

New Products / Magnam Marc de Champagne lollies
« on: August 07, 2014, 07:28:17 pm »
I broke my diet to try one of these as a special treat.

YUK!! I wish I had not!

The coating is a horrible - sickly and greasy and a nasty silver/grey colour. The ice cream is basically just vanilla with a very hard-to-see streak of brown stuff running through it which has no taste at all.

These are not even a hundred miles close to being a Marc de Champagne flavour.

General / Is there anybody out there??

It's gone so quiet here lately. Has everyone given up eating chocolate?

New Products / CDM Mixums
« on: May 03, 2014, 12:36:56 pm »
Two strange new products in share bags. One is CDM with Oreo mix (from what I could see, there were Smarties and Buttons mixed with small Oreos in a bag. The other is CDM with Maynard's jelly products. This seems to be a bag of wine gums and pastilles with CDM chocolates but I could not work out what the chocolates are. Could be tiny fudge bars and something else.
