    Anybody else tried these yet? Best thing I've tasted in years. Not the same kind of coconut as bountys either, tastes more like Malibu for some reason!!

    Sounds rank. I hate cocunut. Accidentaly bit into a Quality Street coconut earlier n had to spit it back in the wrapper. bleugh! They get rid of coffee sweets yet keep coconut and it's just as manky. Mind boggling :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager


    No trust me, its probably one of the nicest chocolate bars ever... But its only limited edition :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,383 ✭✭✭emeraldstar


    well they'll prob only bring it out as a limited edition to 'test it' and see its reception, and then if it goes down well, perhaps it'll stay..??

    I didn't think it was that nice. Moro's have a lovely filling, but the taste was overpowered by the coconut.

    There used to be a bar similar to this a few years ago, anyone remember it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,383 ✭✭✭emeraldstar

    I have a Moro Coconut in the press now though....will get back to you on that later once it's eaten!! :D

    Had one of these babys the other day. It was nice but its defo a different type of cocnut flavour from bounty. I love anything coconut tho, ESPECIALLY cadburys coconut rough, mmmmmm

    these yokes are savage, big thumbs up :D

    they go a bit too mushy in the sunshine though

    had one the other day. It was nice enough, nothing spectacular though. Not a patch on the regular Moro...but I didn't expect it to be, that'd be pretty darn impossible :D
    If I wanted something coconut-y I'd have a Bounty, if I wanted a Moro I'd have a Moro.
    I'd eat one again but there's a lot of bars I'd choose before it. Still nice though.

    I want one! Unfortunately they don't seem to have been discovered by the shop owners around here yet. :(


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,655 Mod ✭✭✭✭Faith


    I haven't seen them at all over here either.

    MmmMMMmmm Coconut rough.....

    Must give one of those moros a go!


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,718 ✭✭✭sudzs


    There's not enough chocolate on them!

    And I preferred when they were boosts! Dont think they had those biscuit pieces in them...

    But Coconut Rough.... mmmmmmmmmmm! :D

    Bout time somebody made a decent macaroon bar!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,048 ✭✭✭BobTheBeat


    Yum yum! Love it, i'd liken the coconutiness to that which is in use in the macaroon bar, (the one with the white paper wrapper).

    I have yet to try the coconut rough. Onwards To the shop!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,976 ✭✭✭✭humanji


    Just noticed a bizarre bar in a white wrapper, in the shop just now and discovered, to my delight, that it was a Moro Coconut :)

    Delicious. It's all I can say about it!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager


    I'm stocking up before this "limited edition" runs out... I swear to god I'll cry the day they take these bars off the shelves. I seriously think I'm addicted to them! :)

    I had one for breakfast and have another waiting in my handbag for after dinner. They're fab- and I don't even like coconut.

    They really do remind me of some bar that used to be out years ago- and not Boost; they have more of a *veggie* taste, not coconut.

    These are really nice and are much nicer than Bounties. I'd also highly recommend dark chocolate kitkats and the kitkat chunky with peanut butter.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,655 Mod ✭✭✭✭Faith


    I've been looking for this everywhere in Edinburgh, Cork and Kerry, and I can't find it anywhere!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,960 ✭✭✭DarkJager


    Aw Faith, you don't know what you're missing out on!!! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 311 ✭✭Passport


    I really really really like them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,234 ✭✭✭Malteaser!


    i haven't even SEEN them, i want some now too though!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,338 ✭✭✭aphex™


    Didn't like them at all, I must be a weirdo. The "coconut" taste was really artificial. Will stick to the bounty's so. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,598 ✭✭✭cashback


    Yeah these are pretty nice alright. They could well have staying power...


  • Registered Users Posts: 36 Moussdog


    I bought one of these in a vending machine yesterday thinking it was a white chocolate Moro (could be an idea) but as it dropped my mate informed me it was a coconut one.

    I was disgusted cause i hate bounty's and was going to throw it away but alas i took a bite and ........... jaysus they're good. Of course there's none left today.
