Title: Chocolate to America
Post by: loulou on November 07, 2011, 04:23:12 pm
I'm sending some sweets and chocolate to my friend in South Carolina. Has anyone any idea what I could send that they do not get. I hear they get Toblerone but only at Christmas .

Well chocolate is a start, they don't really get that from Hershey :P
Seriously though, they should be able to get a few Nestle and Mars products (in fact they get some superior Mars products than us) - so I'd stick with Cadburys as that's very British.
If they're keen on chocolate you could also send them some Divine, Hotel Chocolat or Montezumas.

i've sent numerous bars to my pen-friend in america for years now. her and her clans faves are Yorkie (no, really!), Double Deckers and Star Bars... none of which they get over there.

I don't know if it's still there, but the Cadbury website used to have a guide to which products you could buy in which countries, s that might help. WJP's StarBar suggestion is a good one; anything like that which is not one of the top sellers over here is even less likely to have made it to the US.

Have you tried them?, they sound pretty nasty to me.

i've avoided them thus far. a few facebook buddies were raving about them the other day... they seem to like them. i'm still recovering from walkers chilli and chocolate ones a few years ago.
