Ultimate Chocolate Tournament

Cadbury's Caramel isn't even the best caramel bar out there lads ffs.

Mint crisp and caramel are both lovely but I'd go with mint crisp

Toblerone loses out because it's the only bar of chocolate I've managed to cut myself on.

I once broke a back tooth in half after biting into a Dairy Milk that had been in the fridge. Chocolate related injuries are probably more common than we think.

No, I'm going to get two votes because you quoted it!

Going completely off topic (but hey, why not?), I did have a filling fall out while eating a Caramel bar, but I didn't notice until I bit back down on the filling, which went right back into the nerve and cracked the tooth so badly it ultimately fell out.

Another reason not to vote for the Caramel bar.

(Though they're still nice!)

Where can we watch a live stream of the draw? I presume it's like the draw for the Champions League or Europa League where you'll draw numbered balls from a bowl?

Off topic! Pun intended?

A Kit Kat shot my granddad.

Caramel hasn’t been the same since they changed the bar format and the chocolate texture. The original caramel was a thing of magnificence.

I’m know I’m too late, but I’d plump for Mint Crisp

dudara

Was Purple Snack even in the running? IMHO it’s far superior to yellow & pink Snack.

Some potentially great matches in here. Hard to say who'll be the inevitable champion at this stage. Lots of strong contenders no real underdogs or bars that had a lucky first draw.
We've got a fantastic season ahead of us

I demand a recount!

Purple Snack is the creepy uncle of the Snack family, or even in all of Chocolatedom.

It’s the king of the Corporate coffee break. Kept me alive through many a tedious workshop.

I agree the purple snack should have made the cut. Also the fat ass kit kat should have been in the running. Far superior to its skinny ass sister

I don't do 'Corporate' or even 'coffee'. :pac:

I'm aghast that Star Bar was defeated so soundly.

That was very wrong.
And I feel somewhat responsible as I hadn't found this thread and didn't vote.

ibarelycare

I’d consider both purple and yellow Snacks as biscuits rather than bars. In saying that, yellow would win of the 3 any day of the week. The only good thing a pink Snack has ever done is fornicate with a Flake to make a Time Out (RIP).

I was thinking more like this.



This is a real thing that happened last week by the way, legitimately in a chocolate factory.....

Yeah the new Caramel is awful. Why are confectionary companies hell bent on reducing the quality of their products?! Cadbury especially of late - crap new Time Out also.

Probably making savings on the quality and quantity of the ingredients, and hoping that since they're all doing it, we'll just get used to the new version and keep buying.

Omackeral

So Round 2 is up and running. We'll look for 7 votes this time and as usual, all your feedback and pros and cons are what makes it great! First to hit the quota goes through to the quarter final.
