    I didn't get much pocket money so most of my faves were cheap...and lasted a long time -
    Giggle bars...yummy chewy bars that were 10p(old money is gas)
    Or the hard chocolate mice that ranged from 4p to 6p...chewing for a good half hour!

    Yep loved the dark chocolate Mars bars!
    Any idea why they do stop production of some bars and sweets??? :confused: I guess sales would be low and the companies don't see any point continuing!
    Will keep an eye on this thread cos I am sure that others will post some fave oldies!

    Are they the bars with Milk/White Chocolate?

    In the southern hemisphere they are still available.

    Also, you can get 'Triple Decks' which are Dark/Milk/White.

    And Dark/Milk/Mint (iirc)

    Vice Versa were a smashing sweet too.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,657 Mod ✭✭✭✭Faith


    Vice Versas! Without a doubt, I want them back!

    I can't remember if Top Decks were two or three colours, but I think they were three.

    I think here they were only two. Not sure though.

    Hmm, seemingly in Aus you can now get them with all kinds of flavours in them. Strawberry, Raspberry, Caramel. I'd love to try them.

    I'd love it if Cadbury introduced their Cherry Ripe to the Irish market.

    Delicious bar altogether.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherry_Ripe
    An Australian chocolate bar manufactured by Cadbury Australia Pty. Ltd uses the name. It is Australia’s oldest chocolate bar brand, first introduced in 1924 by MacRobertson's. It consists of a cherry and coconut mix covered in Old Gold dark chocolate.

    I just found a wonderful website! You can order all sorts of chocolate from it, including Cherry Ripes and Top Decks!

    Incidentally, you're right, Des, there's only two colours.
