Hello All,


I have found this forum fascinating, I need help before my head explodes! I have a very vivid memory from childhood in the early seventies of a chocolate bar which was shaped something like a Frys Chocolate cream but the inside was a bright green mint crackling. Can anyone put me out of my misery and let me know what it was called.

I think this is either a Mint Cracknell or an Ice Breaker.

Mint Cracknell for sure. They came in a cardboard tray with two choc bars inside. Delicious.

Wern't Icebreaker like plain chocolate with mint bits in - rather like the current Cadbury Mint Bits?

I'm too young to remember so I'll bow to your age and wisdom (age anyway!)

Icebreaker was like eating not very good quality chocolate with the occasional bit of broken glass thrown in for good measure.
