Title: Cadbury Dairy Milk Snack
Post by: cleverdick on November 04, 2008, 06:07:33 pm: What you get.... Depends where you are!

In Oz, DMS is a really old-school multi-centred fondant bar, made with creamy Dairy Milk (just how it used to be here), and with each segment shaped according to its filling. Worth checking out for sure.

In South Africa, the product of the same name is nothing more than a plastic-wrapped 'raisin and biscuit' bar, none too remarkable (in my view) and just like the UK Cadbury's.

I can't vouch for the entire history of CDM, obviously, but it's certainly never tasted like that in the UK in the last 30 years.

Not in 40 years either IMHO. I also agree that Aussie CDM is horrible.

Post by: scampycat on December 11, 2008, 11:19:04 am: Ah..well some of you may recall this. Some years ago i bought the aussie Snack Bar and ate it live on the forum giving my opinion as i went. When i ordered it i had high hopes as i was led to believe it would take me back to the days of the milk tray bar..it didnt. It wasnt particularly nice and if i remember rightly,the caramel segment was one of the worst choc experiences of my life.

Scampy
