Internet campaign results in return of the Wispa

Cadbury is bringing back the Wispa bar after an internet campaign by chocolate lovers.

The Eighties favourite will be re-launched in October for a limited period.

It comes four years after the bar was dropped because of declining sales.

Thousands of fans have used websites like Facebook and Bebo to call for its return.

...If only I wasn't moving to Germany in October

Wispa, whats that?

Cadbury in the UK have announced the return of the infamous wispa...

Apparently the interweb played its part in getting back on the shelves..

Wispa, whats that?

YES YES YES. I loved this bar, but thought it was dropped because of manufacturing difficulties or something, perhaps they've solved them or something....

Finally they can get rid of that pale imitation, bubbly bar. Strike fear right into the heart of the Aero people!!!

Mwuahaaaaa!!!!

They'll be smaller and 3x more expensive, but still good news.

I won't be happy unless they bring back the Wispa Bite, but that article suggests it's just the ordinary Wispa that's coming back.

That'd be the salmonella:D

Cadbury lost almost 50 million euro last year due to shoddy
standards and salmonella contamination in a UK factory.

Fanny Cradock

Other than the salmonella outbreaks, why are wispas infamous?

ooh can't wait for them to come back!

Apparently, the vice principal that was in my school for 5 of the 6 years I spent there used to give them out as bribes and rewards(before my time there began though:mad: ). Rumour has it that he used to be able to produce them out of thin air as there was always one in his hand when needed.

Yes he was quite the man.He used to refer to a can of coke as 'a tin of mineral' as well, or crisps(regardless of actual brand) as 'packages of king-tayto'.

I like these as a kid but the original was my favourite.

frisbeeface

Fantastic news. Great bar, always preferred it to the Aero.

Jimoslimos

I fear it won't taste as good as it used to. Those Wispa-making Ooompa-Loompas' skills have been dented by years of inactivity:(

Wispa is good.

Wispa Gold was the chocolate bar of the gods.

I remember when I was 8 and we had visitors to stay, my mum bribed me with a Wispa to sleep with my granny and give my bed up for the visitors for a WEEK.

I broke my foot in 6th year (October 2002) and lived on Wispas while I hobbled around recovering. Then they took them away before my leaving and I had to make do with Galaxy, because Aeros are puke and those Bubbly bars are pure shoite.

Wispa Mint was sexeh. Oh lordy, lordy me.

Can't wait for the return of the Wispa!

mukki

Wispa, whats that?

I rememeber in 1990, 1st year in school, seeing a class mate eating a whispa,( i thought to myself ... "whipas are lovely, I haven't had one in years") i ran out to the tuck shop and got one, anyway when i got back, half the room were eating one.



as for wispa> bubbly, you are all sooo wrong

whispa is a bar, you bite into the bar breaking the chocolate into peices giving a large surface area melting in your mouth,

go out and buy a dairy milk bubbly, and start chewing on them chunks

something familiar, yeah, it tastes just like wispa used to.

still looking forward to the real thing, i'll be stocking them up
