Title: Who Buys Dark Bounty?
Post by: Britishcandy on February 21, 2006, 09:07:34 pm

Personally I prefer dark chocolate to milk chocolate like Cadburys Bourneville, my favourite is dark chocolate Bounty..


Does anyone else prefer Dark Bounty?


You know, im pretty sure Dark Bounty used to have a streak of cherry through it many years ago?

I like dark chocolate on chocolate bars but don't eat much dark chocolate as plain chocolate (if you will excuse the pun)


I love dark Bountys

Not a fan or dark bountys. I like the milk chocolate ones though.

Much prefer dark Bounties to milk.  Also prefer plain choc digestives.

Perhaps I will give Dark Bountys a go again.

Since I had a filling one of my teeth is very sensitive to coconut so I have tried to avoid eating Bounties.

It's hard to find Dark Bountys. It makes me wonder though, why did Mars choose to make Bountys in milk or plain chocolate but none of its other bars?

Do you not get a dark chocolate mars bar?

Dark Bounties were top of my sweet list. Much nicer flavour than milk IMO.

I dont have them often but I dont have Bounty often. I prefer the milk choc flavour though. It'd be nice to see a white choc Bounty as I think the combo would work well. I once made white chocolate topped shortbread with coconut, was gorgeous

Almond Joy from the US brought out a white chocolate one once and that was lovely.

I have 2 limited edition Almond Joys indoors. One is Passion Fruit Flavour and the other is Key Lime Flavour.

I agree, their prices are fairly expensive. In the actual shop they have a bargain shelf, selling out of dates items at low prices. I will pay full price for the Kit Kats though!
Title: Who Buys Dark Bounty?
Post by: kevvosa on April 13, 2006, 01:54:20 pm
My fave was the latte Kit Kat and the Passionfruit one. If I get any extra money I might spend a tenner on some stuff from their website. 
Title: Who Buys Dark Bounty?
Post by: chocolate chick on April 13, 2006, 04:20:18 pm
I enjoyed those ones too. They have some new kit kats in store at the moment. More than is listed on the website.

Anyone remember Mango Bounties? They were around in cheap shops and some newsagents over a year ago, they were lovely and fruity.

I like the dark one but it's so hard to find here that if I see them i will buy 6. I need to have  a cup of tea with them as I find the choc a bit strong.

Post by: kevvosa on July 29, 2006, 09:23:06 am
I find that tea ruins the taste of chocolate.

Post by: oldspice on July 29, 2006, 09:24:25 am
Dark Bountys are nice. I don't eat them very often but they make a nice change. That leads me to wonder why Bounty was chosen for a milk and plain version? There have been milk and plain ones ever since I can remember but plain versions of other bars are rare and tend to come and go as 'limited editions'. 
Title: Who Buys Dark Bounty?
Post by: kevvosa on July 29, 2006, 10:08:33 am

I think it is because the chocolate coating is very thin on Bounty bars, so the taste isn't overly strong. Also maybe dark chocolate works on Bounty whereas it may not do so well on other bars.

I am still surprised they haven't done a white chocolate Bounty, although I suspect it may be a little too sickly. I know you hate white choc oldspice, but there are deffinitely some bars that taste better with it - white chocolate Twix was far nicer than the regular version.

Mars plain chocolate isn't really that strong. It is my favourite plain chocolate taste, though you would win the argument that it isn't if you look at the contents of it.

I don't hate ALL white chocolate. i used to LOVE Milky Bar but it's now just too sweet. White Maltesers are not too bad, but i don't fancy a white Bounty. A dark Milky Way would be great.
Title: Who Buys Dark Bounty?
Post by: kevvosa on July 29, 2006, 02:04:18 pm
I think that's why Milkybars are so thin, because they are sweet.

Dream tastes very similar to white chocolate Cadbury Buttons (i.e gross).


Do Cadbury still make white chocolate buttons?

I don't think they do. Now they are called "Dairy Milk Buttons".
