Vanilla fudge

Marydoll Sun 07-Apr-19 20:13:55

Urmstongran, it's the same Vanilla fudge. grin It's Poundland, the shop with the teal and yellow front.
They don't always have it, so you just have to keep looking!

I'm sorry about that BB life is tough isn't it.

BBbevan Mon 08-Apr-19 06:19:54

Not so bad sodapop like being 3 stone lighter ?

I don't see anything unhealthy in a bit of chocolate now and then.

I used to crave Cadbury's at a certain time of the month but only one or two squares - and even that went with menopause. Couldn't eat it now to save my life.
Even the divine Fry's Chocolate Cream is too sweet. sad

Now I eat chocolate for the sheer pleasure of it because I'm not scared of my food.

My favourite, and one bar lasts me months, is the Lindt Orange. It's very thin and very, very delicious. grin

Thanks Marydoll fellow fudge lover!

I’m enjoying this thread. Thanks everyone for joining in. Best time of day (breakfast) to read these then I’m not craving any ha!

Can't eat sweeties now, (diabetic) but my weakness used to be Charbonnel & Walker violet creams.

CariGransnet (GNHQ) Mon 08-Apr-19 10:10:05

Montezuma's milk chocolate peanut butter mini eggs (SO good!)
Lindor mint
Lindt extra creamy milk chocolate

But I can always happily partake of a mini egg (and most other things)

NannyJan53 Mon 08-Apr-19 15:45:49

Lindor (Milk in red wrapper)
Toblerone
Walnut Whip

trisher Mon 08-Apr-19 15:50:31

What's my favourite? What have you got, what's in the cupboard?...... That'll do nicely!

Nonnie Mon 08-Apr-19 16:17:12

Lindor
Maltesers
Dime

and a second three!

Cadburys whole nut (its a myth that Cadbury has changed anything but the eggs and they changed that back)
Bounty
Just discovered Aldi chocolates (from GN) and love it.

Would not eat Quality St, Aero or anything else made by the disgraceful Nestle.

KatyK Mon 08-Apr-19 16:36:59

I agree Aldi chocolate is great. They do packs of mini coconut bars which I think are exactly the same as Bounty. You get about 12 for about 85p.

Nonnie Mon 08-Apr-19 16:39:09

Must go back and try those Katy, be glad when they open a store near here.

whywhywhy Mon 08-Apr-19 20:57:28

Anything from hotel chocolat
Peanut M&M's
Walnut whips

Mmmm I'm hungry now! X
