It would be nice if it had blueberry yoghurt fondant in the middle but i would not like the chocolate to be infused with blueberry yoghurt flavour.


Why do people abraod get the best and most imaginative Cadbury's products whilst we get left with the plain old boring ones?

Of course they are. I've never denied that Cadbury's range in the UK is now boring when once it was at least interesting.


Go back 30, 40, 50 years. Cadbury made bars with fruit fondant filling (pineapple cream!, strawberry - lots of them), they made rum and raisin fudge bars, Amazin Raisin, a huge range of different bars in the 1970s - now you are left with endless variations of things with biscuit, toffee, wafer and various 'bits' in.

It's sad to see that people these days no longer want variety. And it is the people at fault, not the chocolate comapnies,  because we are the ones who buy it.

Exactly. Companies make products that will sell and pouring money into unusual bars is just too risky.

I am not sure I totally agree. I think people get the bars the market will stand as long as they are easy to manufacture. The big companies can no longer afford to offer a huge variety because of the huge investment in machinery needed to produce the bar.


However, if you go to Thorntons or any of the shops that sell individual chocolates, they will tell you fruit fondant fillings sell well. Thornotns don't bugger about with soft toffee with a hazel nut in the middle.

I see your point, but read that article Kevvosa posted the link to about the new KitKat flavours. Both customers and retailers were complaining about too much choice! Is it any wonder Cadbury and Mars won't risk CDM with Blueberry or Galaxy Fruit Creme?

Think there is a market for a small scale producer of specialist ( i.e. fruit centred) chocolates?

Pineapple is one of those flavours that just cannot be produced successfully, artificially.


Like banana, actually.
