    For those into the chocolates especially this time of year , which ones are you more fond of ? Depends on whether you like the nestle or the Cadburys. I like the variety of the celebrations but you can't beat the taste of Cadburys.

    I've left roses out as i've given up on them. Too many sh!t flavours and " take a bite and spit them out" moments.

    Heroes hands down.

    Celebrations. Once I have someone nearby who can take all the mini Bounty bars off my hands. Yuck.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 935 ✭✭✭Whitewinged


    I want the green triangle from Quality Street, the purple and orange chochlate with the nut in the centre from Roses, the malteaser from Celebrations and plain dairy milk from Hereos, all in one tin.

    They took the galaxy truffles out of celebrations, they were the best one in the box.

    Without them heroes win hands down.

    I'll take all the bountys you have and swap them for the Galaxy Caramel ones.

    Hero's. Celebrations are so last year.

    The Galaxy ones are the keepers...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,087 ✭✭✭markc1184


    Heroes for me. Especially now that they have put Wispa in, although Toblerone is gone.

    Just opened a tub of Heroes. Utter sh!te. I'd eat Celebrations Bounties all day over them.

    I'm officially old. My taste for Cadburys chocolate is completely gone. They're terrible, even my once loved Fudge. Perhaps it's a different recipe over here. . .

    This year's heroes only had two dairy milk but had about 9 eclairs and 6 cream eggs.

    I'm all for equality.

    Malteasers might have something to say about that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,770 ✭✭✭The Randy Riverbeast


    Whoever took the truffles out of the celebrations deserves a slow painful death.

    Favourites out of celebrations have got maltesers, galaxy, snickers.

    Heroes have got to be dairy milk and the wispas

    Quality street are toffee penny, toffee finger, Carmel (dark brown wrapper)

    Gone off roses altogether only think I would eat out of it would be the caramel (blue wrapper)

    Mine as well.

    Mars and milky way can be too sickly sweet. I usually go straight for the galaxy.

    In the heroes the éclairs and fudges are usually left to last. The dairy milk is gone first, just like in the roses until they stopped doing dairy milk.

    Twilight and After Eight mints. Next question please.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,601 ✭✭✭Gaygooner


    Roses


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 102 ✭✭Usernemises


    I have just finished a full tub of heroes, the enjoyment went after the first 4/5 and I kept eating. Heading for hot weather in January and I will be panned out on the lounger swollen out like a poisoned pup.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 350 ✭✭XplaygirlX


    I'd have the golden barrels, strawberry, orange [roses] malteaser, galaxy, caramel, Mars, [celebrations] dairy milk, [hero's] [and maybe a few other hero's but can't remember the names as I never really buy them] all in one tin :)


  • Posts: 50,630 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Quality Street. All those toffees mmmmm. And coconut eclair.

    Heroes are dead to me since they took out the picnic.

    Not a single tinned sweet have I had this christmas!

    Oh indeed they do my friend. Indeed they do. Just not for 3.99 or whatever you pay for a tub nowadays. You can buy tins of Quality Street still!

    They're more like tubs than tins. A bit like myself after Christmas.

    Haven't seen a proper tin in ages.

    I'd have to go with Heroes. Celebrations aren't without their charm though. Love the Malteser and Bounty ones.

    Never got the love for Quality Street. They were always the 'meh' ones growing up.


  • Posts: 50,630 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Quality Street do a 1.3kg Tin and a smaller Tub.

    Don't know about the other inferior sweets.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43 Championship Vinyl


    You seem to know all about inferior chocolates alright. :D

    I won't have a bad word said about Roses either. A somewhat sleeping giant.
