How exactly does an "Ornament" constitute a Christmas variety?
It is the thin end of the bloody wedge, I tell you.
They have upset my "Human rights" or something.
I saw a Lindt Bunny Advent calendar today.
*Inhales*
Ah!!!!!!!!! That's better!

Are those Christmas Pudding things around this year?  Can't even remember who made them but at least they had an obvious festive connection, unlike eggs.

Yes, I too am totally baffled by the use of the word 'ornament'.  I don't know why they're bothering anyway. Come Christmas Eve, next year's Creme Eggs will be on sale. It's a total waste of packaging. Shame on Cadbury.

I suppose it's meant to look like a tree ornament - but it's just a creme egg. Seems a bit of a waste of time to me.

We get Creme Egg "new wrapper" and New Zealanders  get this lot!

 

Cadbury treat their UK customers with indifference at best.

I'm amazed this one hasn't seen the light of day in the UK yet. I can see how some of the more unusual bars would be seen as a bit risky, but this has hit written all over it.

Why are these not available here!  They may even turn me back onto Cadbury, if only a little bit.  I want that mint Flake!

They're just like the whit chocolate ones only minty, to get an idea what its taste is like, eat a minty aero.

I remember a few years ago when passing through Reigate I pulled in at a service station that had them.  You find that a lot of product is first tested in the south and in Scotland to gauge the market response.

I don't know what you been smoking but need to cut down buddy.

My comment is simple... It is like the "White" chocolate one but tastes minty, if you have ever tried the white chocolate flake then you would know what I am referring to.

I have tried many chocolate bars that are not available in most UK shops, the guy I buy my chocolate from buys mainly EOL and short date product that was manufactured for export.
