Atomic Boo Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Since we had the kit kat ledgends thread, whilst still on this topic, i thought we should make a chocolate bar thread. Maybe its the peanut butter lion bar? Ive never tried it myself but i used to love the Fuse chocolate bar, unfortunately though, i cant find them anywhere anymore! if anyone knows if they are still made please tell me. But anyway whats your favourite chocolate bar?
Babooo Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 I remember Fuse, I absolutley loved those!!! But yeh, I don't think they seem to be around any more. My fav has to Wispa Gold.
Atomic Boo Posted March 25, 2006 Author Posted March 25, 2006 Oh yeah they were just amazing! ^ but fuse still remains my favourite. I also liked the blue version of wispa and Double Deckers! Toffee Crisp used to be really good but theyre now too small and up in price...
Fields Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 To be honest I don't think you can beat a good old fashioned Dairy Milk. Mars and Snickers are pretty cool too, and of course Kit Kat (but NOT Kit Kat Chunky).
The3rdChildren Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 I'll eat anything. ANYTHING. Those Whispa Golds were delicious.
Fields Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Those Whispa Golds were delicious. Yeah, they were fit as fuck. Do they still do them anywhere?
EEVILMURRAY Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 I remember them well. But the winner for me is either Rocky or Gold bars. Love the taste.
Babooo Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Boost bars are good...very good.....but still prefer wispa golds.
Nintendork Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Totally depends on the mood. but one I always go back to is this one and it's variations (honeycomb especially): Can anyone recommend any fair trade bars that are like really raw flavoured chocolates.. not the refined smooth stuff that we get in the UK? I know the co-op has been stocking some lately.. not tried them though. The nestle double berry/cream/chocolate series was also rather tasty.. quite luxurious for a 45p bar and totally on par with something you'd expect from Thornton's or Lindt. and Milka bars are real tasty too.. I think it's because the milk.. But I think Yorkie remains champion.
Babooo Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 I remember those honeycomb yorkies....they were so good!!! The one thing I never did get was their advertising....only for men???
Nintendork Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 I remember those honeycomb yorkies....they were so good!!! The one thing I never did get was their advertising....only for men??? Yorkie was launched in 1976 to take on brands such as Cadbury’s Dairy Milk and provide a chunkier alternative to the slimmed down Dairy Milk bars. Names originally under consideration for Yorkie included "O’Hara", "Trek" and "Rations". Within two years of its launch, Yorkie topped 13 thousand tonnes and became firmly established as a big, solid, chunky eat, uniquely for men. Advertising reflected this with macho imagery - lorry drivers who take it one chunk at a time. Yorkie still holds these values today but was relaunched in 1994 as a hunger satisfying bar. Yorkie is also the official confectionery sponsor for the FA Premier League and Soccer AM. Throughout the season, Yorkie is advertised on perimeter boards at all FA Premier League matches as well as FA Cup, Worthington Cup, UEFA Cup and European Cup Winners’ Cup matches involving FA Premier League clubs. Yorkie 'Not For Girls' pack YORKIE - "IT'S NOT FOR GIRLS" In 2001 the Yorkie "It’s Not for Girls" campaign was launched because, in today’s society, there aren’t many things that a man can look at and say that’s for him. (err wtf..) The 'Not For Girls' campaign theme for Yorkie uses humour, which resonates with today’s British male and simply states that Yorkie is positioning itself as a chocolate bar for men who need a satisfying hunger buster. With five solid chunks of chocolate, it’s a man sized eat!
demonmike04 Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 It'd either have to be a Montana or a Gold bar...those things are just too damn good. Or, M&M's peanut butter.
BeerMonkey Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 i LOVED <3 cadburys "Secret" back in the day but havent seen it for bout 10 years or so now :(:(:(:(:(:( these days i like kinder bueno mmmmmmmmmmmmm...........
Charlie Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Can anyone recommend any fair trade bars that are like really raw flavoured chocolates.. not the refined smooth stuff that we get in the UK? I know the co-op has been stocking some lately.. not tried them though. 'Dubbles' are awesome and fair trade. I love them, I can get them at school for 60p...
Nintendork Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 This thread needs a little sophistication. Green and Black's is the fastest growing chocolate confectionery brand in the UK. A 100g bar of Green & Black's Fair Trade Gold Dark Chocolate sells for £1.09 (US$2.03), which is roughly the price of a 300g Cadbury's Dairy Milk bar. Green and Black's has also extended its brand into ice cream, hot chocolate and biscuits. Seems cool, they're organic.. fair trade and it's pretty tasty stuff I hear. It's a bummer that it costs £1 for 100gs though.. but that beats what lindt charge considerably. I just wont share it as much as I do with other chocolates.. I think Green and Black's seems quite cool.. while it's been bought out buy a global corporation it's still run by a small group of 12 people and they've not changed the formula to the product.. just marketed it so it is more available in bigger shops like Tesco and Woolworths.
The3rdChildren Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Yeah, they were fit as fuck. Do they still do them anywhere? I doubt it. They always kill off the best chocolate bars. Add Dime bars to that list, Galaxy Caramels too. Lion Bars. Let us not forget the legendary FINGER OF FUDGE. I firmly believe a Mars Bar is best eaten when of the ice cream variety
