The guy said in a few weeks, be patient my friend. Although it is a bit concerning to think that the reason we have to wait that long is because you have a few weeks worth of chocolate to get through? Ouch.
But really, your site is trully entertaining. I've just been enjoying a good 20 minute read myself
My personal favourite are the reeses cups. I was once given a bag of cups but not like the ones in the packet of two. This was a big bag with loads of tin-foil-wrapped smaller ones in. Delicious.

Your concerned at a weeks worth :O :O :O man I have about 100+ bars in my cuboards....possibly about 6 months worth I would say!! And thats not counting the ridiculous order my American supplier is currenty sending me....its got over 20 items in it :S :s Im completely overrun!!

...im doing about 2-3 reviews a day at the momment! Eating far too much! Im still only posting one a day as more than that and people complain and get annoyed and cant keep up - all a bit of a nightmare really.

lol im complaining but I love it! Thanks for the kind words on the site my man! Be sure to check back each day for the new review....its hardly like you can mis it anyway the amount I whore out my site

Gil-martin - bear with me mate! Its gonna be done in the next few weeks! all a matter of buying the damn thing...photographing it..eating it...reviewing it....it can take a while!

Great blog!

Fry's Turkish Delight > Cadbury Dairy Milk Turkish

Fry's Turkish Delight > Cadbury Dairy Milk Turkish

Cheers Garth....I will have to test that theory! Fry's Turkish is actually something I have already in the old stash...been there for a long while aswell! To be honest its gonna be bloody ridiculous if that theory is right - Fry's are actually now owned by Cadbury

I think it's down to less chocolate and more Turkish Delight, personally. I look forward to reading your thoughts on the subject!

Sunday / Monday - You no doubt complain that it hasn't (I assume) got 10/10....

Enjoy todays reviews - I broke the rules today and posted two! Busy times!

I'm only pissing with you, Laggy.

It'd be nice to see the review, but it's not as important to me as I've made it seem.



Hope you enjoy it though, likes.


Oh aye, been looking at your site a little bit every day now. It's brill.

A fair way until you're a http://www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com beater, but getting there.

I haven't had a packet of Dairy Milk Buttons (Giant or otherwise) for years.

I'm tempted to buy each of these as you review them

Garth - You are too kind! Buttons are awesomelly nostalgic! Next time your heading for the cinema grab a bag to munch. They suit the bill there awesomely!

Martin - Haha i know its hardly gonna spoil your day , You may be glad to hear though its ahead of my planned schedule and will be posted at 9am today

Yesterday was ridiculous - that package from America has arrived! All the mail stuff said that it cost $68 to post and the contents had a total worth of $215 .... its just contains chocolate

Todays Review: Cadbury Flake Praline
&... especially for Martin
M&S Swiss White Mountain Bar

Just read the Swiss White review and I will probably pick one up after reading it.

I am gobbling down some Milkybar Moments that I bought as an impulse buy as I write this. Just found your review, and I agree they're not that great. I like the taste, but the shells are too crispy. I mean, this is what I imagine eating glass with a Milkybar would be like! If I don't chew them enough, the shards that get swallowed actually slightly hurt my throat on the way down!
Milkybar to me has always been a child focused product but I wouldn't recommend letting them have these.

I agree with your 6.3 (I think that's what it was) score

Aw, Laggjim, you are the baws!

"silky creamy milky flavour". Spot on.

8.3, through. Booooooo.

I didnt particularly like the milkybar momments either!! They got a 6.7 ... which is pretty rubbish considering its pretty easy to get a 7!! Review HERE I had a problem with the shells aswell - just too thick in my opinion! If you ever got a comment on the reviews mate wack it in the comments part after the review - makes the site lok busier

Martin - Im the baws!?? lol wtf!? 8.3 is a prety damn good score! It was good white chocolate just need that little bit more depth to its taste! You should try THIS ... its seriously great stuff!

Comment posted, it's exacly what I've written here mind.

After reading the review on Hotel Paline White I really want one now! Dunno if there's a Hotel Chocolat in Cambridge though. I know there's one in Milton Keynes, so might have to pick one up there.

It means you're great. Kind of like a Scottish 'the dog's bollocks'.

Yeah, I recognise 8.3 is a good score; just being dramatic for effect.

The HC White Praline's that good, eh? I'll probably order some, seeing as they don't deem us sweaties worthy of a store in one of our bigger cities, like Edinburgh, where I live. Christ, there's one in Watford.


Oh, just one more thing - thanks for mentioning on your review of the M&S white chocolate bar that I asked you to review it, but me name's not Martin! Gil-Martin is a character from a James Hogg Novel that I like - my name's Gavin.
