What chocolate can you not get in Melbourne?

Marie212

I'm posting my friend out a xmas present and I was thinking of putting a Cadbury's selection box in.

Are there any particular chocolates you can't get in Melbourne? I don't want to be sending it out if she can get them there. Will the chocolate melt if I do post it out?

Not sure of what you can't get here, but all the chocolate out here is different from home (not as nice). So I'd say anything you send out would go down a treat.

Not too into my chocolate but I did enjoy a few macaroon bars that were sent out awhile back.

are the chocolate brands are more or less the same but they don't taste the same as I think they have to put ingredients to stop them melting.

They don't seem to have frys chocolate cream or any Irish chocolate, but if you go to some the British expat shops you'll get most of these, but you'll pay a big addon price

Most UK chocolate can be bought here at British lolly shops
at a much inflated price e.g. $2.50-3 for a small cadbury
fudge bar. I've only seen Cadbury snack bars in March around
St Pats. Sometimes Woolworths will have a special on
something like wispas or cadburys twisted but generally
don't stock them.
posting chocolate here in summer can be bit of a risk,
I've gotten some that had melted and reset and had that
grey white tinge to it.
i don't ask for it anymore now
