    Shortcake Snack Shots:

    To be honest, not very nice, too much chocolate & not enough biscuit. Tastes nothing like a yellow snack biscuit, and even the chocolate doesn't taste that great.



    Cadbury Spots v Stripes bar:

    (I'd already tried some, and then found there were no photos to be found (easily anyway) online)

    Now perhaps those who liked Top Deck may like this, as it's the same principle, except different thickness. I was never a big Top Deck fan myself and I don't really like this bar either, just doesn't do it for me.

    Anyone else come across either of these? / has an opinion?

    Still trying to find a Spots v Stripes bar in Dublin...

    Have seen the Signs... but not the product?
    Teh Snack Shots seem to be on sale everywhere though!

    has anybody seen the Spots v Stripes bars for sale in Dublin CC?

    Tried the Spots v Stripes one the other day. It's nothing special - it's definitely no Top Deck, which used to be a favourite of mine. The layers are too thin to really distinguish the white and milk chocolate properly. It's ok though.

    What's a Top Deck? Sounds familiar...

    Cadbury® Dairy Milk® Top Deck block is Cadbury Dairy Milk, milk chocolate with a layer of creamy white chocolate on the top deck.

    Spots vs. Stripes looks too luxurious and blah.

    Give me that milky filth that IS Cadburys chocolate. :pac:

    Spots v stripes is heaven.

    Snacks shots are woeful. Very disappointing.

    I didn't like either of them. I don't like yellow snacks at the best of times, and I thought the Spots Vs Stripes tasted very cheap - almost like cooking chocolate :(.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,429 ✭✭✭✭star-pants


    I love yellow snacks, but those shots are muck.
    Yeah I'm not a fan of the white on milk, and it does taste kind of cheap, the chocolate on the shots tastes cheaper though. Very disappointing altogether.
    /goes back to Crunchie biscuits

    I didn't like the Crunchie biscuits either! I do like the Crunchie cluster thingies though.

    yet to try those!! *note to self for tomorrow* :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,740 ✭✭✭Asphyxia


    I don't see anything special in the spots vs. stripes I tried it the other day and would choose a Cadbury's Top Deck over it. The shortcake snck shots on the other hand were fabulous I devoured the packet :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,335 ✭✭✭✭UrbanSea


    I forgot about those Top Deck they were unbelievable. Also the Cadbury Marble bars were to die for. They tasted so sugarry but soooo good.
