    No, I'm not about to whisper in your ear. Does anyone else remember these bars? Chocolate bar in a gold wrapper with blueish purpley joined up writing saying Secret. Opened it up to reveal a cardboard sled that it sat in. Chocolate bar was round and was made out of strands of round chocolate in like a log shape and in the middle was like a chocolatey type mousse! I'm drooling all over my keyboard!

    Remember them well, theyre partially the reason I was a child lard ass ! Those and sky ice creams. It was a sad sad day when they left the market.

    They were really the higher end of the chocolate pricing band though IIRC ?

    Mmm they were delish, cost close to £1 at the time I think.

    They were no where near that expensive!
    They cost a few pence more then a dairy milk from what I remember.

    They were the most wonderful chocolate bar ever:)

    god I remember them well, they were lovely.
    Damn you I have a goo on me now for one.
    I take it they are not for sale anymore?
    Maybe we should start a petition to get them back.

    Don't remember the packaging, but I remember the chocolate! Oh, i'm gnawing for one now...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,921 ✭✭✭✭Pigman II


    I remember having them once or twice back in the day. Wouldn't mind one now tbh.

    (check out the guy in that ad who looks like a fat Steve Carrell).

    I remember them well. I found it was one of those bars that I would crave like mad then not bother again for quite a while.

    Wispa's were the same.

    Sky Ice Cream Bars were gorgeous.
    Only thing was, my teeth used to get stuck on the chocolate in the middle while the ice cream shocked the hell out of my poor sensitive teeth.

    My sister used to love them secret bars.
    Never had one, never liked the look of them.

    Why did you have to remind me of Wispas!!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,006 ✭✭✭MistyCheese


    Haven't you heard? Wispas are back, baby!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,243 ✭✭✭kelle


    Haven't you heard? Wispas are back, baby!

    What? Where? Take me to them, Misty - NOW!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,442 ✭✭✭Firetrap


    I haven't seen any Wispas for ages. Not since the initial launch of them. Weren't Cadbury's only going to bring them back for a short while? :(

    I used to love those Secret bars. I was in college at the time and used to buy them from the vending machine in the arts block. They were a bit dearer than the other bars but they were fuppin' gorgeous. As was the also now defunct Sky ice-creams. Now I'm depressed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,006 ✭✭✭MistyCheese


    Well, the taxi garage in Harolds Cross sells 'em. Or they did the last time I was there. Mmmmm, that reminds me of two other chocolate bars of yesteryear. Wispa Gold or Wispa Mint, anyone?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,442 ✭✭✭Firetrap


    Yep, and they've rebranded the old Picnic bar as a Peanut Moro.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47 WiCkLaMuLlA

    Argh you ****er ! I missed the post above yours about the moro and though you meant still selling Secret bars. I nearly creamed myself. :o

    Oops, :( I'm really sorry to have gotten your hopes up.

    It's the Star Bar that's back as peanut Moro in the red wrapper.I loved Star Bars and of course the Moro, though not bad, is not quite the same.

    Was my after mass treat on a Sunday... it was that or a Walnut Whip.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 730 ✭✭✭Hygro


    I once bought a Secret bar and when I bit into it it just crumbled in my hand. There was no filling in it!!! I had wondered why it was so light!! 45p down the drain (or on the ground anyway).
