Let me ask you this…
Does anyone you know have the same favourite Snack chocolate flavour as you? Cadbury swung some choccy at me last week to give away to you and I was thinking about how weird people are about their favourite Snack flavours. My favourite flavour is caramel and I rarely have to fight anyone for it, which really surprises me. Personally I think caramel is quite the crowd pleaser but not in my family. If you’re reading this you’re probably quite familiar with the Smaggles. In case I haven’t mentioned it before Daddy Smaggle and my cousin Alice are Snack Chocolate ADDICTS!
At least once a year they have a blind Snack Chocolate challenge where they have to draw and identify the different flavours and individual patterns of Snack Chocolate. They’ll be huddled around a table with a pen and paper going ‘No! CARAMEL has the art deco drips pattern and TURKISH DELIGHT has the deep grooves!’. We are not very good at sharing which is why the Snack Chocolate game occurs, because nobody wants to waste their share of chocolate on a flavour they don’t like… *cough*…coconut ice…*cough*. Thankfully Daddy and Alice Smaggle like different flavours so it rarely comes to blows. He’s a Turkish Delight man and she worships at the alter of the Pineapple. They’re both deranged. It’s clearly all about the caramel.
Honestly though, on a solo mission, I’m not so enamored of chocolate in general. I won’t ever buy it for myself. For me chocolate is a communal experience. It’s shared with my bestie on a couch in our ugg boots, it’s fed to me in bed by my lover or it’s fought over on the coffee table at my parents house, as I try to wrangle a piece from the greedy mitts of my father and brother. I adore the conversation starter that is Snack Chocolate but it’s not a terribly inclusive treat. It turns people against each other. Which is why I’m more likely to head down the path of a chocolate block with a dedicated flavour. Like the Mousse range. Double Chocolate. Chocolate. Raspberry. Hazelnut. If chocolate is even in the same family as praline I’m all over it. Hello hazelnut, you nutty devil.
If you’re fond of the odd cocoa treat you’ll be interested to know that Cadbury is offering four of my readers the chance to win a block of Mousse Chocolate (T&Cs here)! All you have to do is answer the question below…
What is your favourite Snack chocolate flavour? Or do you prefer a more focused flavour like something in the Mousse range?
P.S. Extra bonus points – is coconut ice anyones favourite flavour? I’m dying to know! Do share below.
P.P.S I thought some of you might be interested to know that Cadbury is only allowed to give away one block of chocolate per person for health reasons. I think it’s fantastic that the limit is there in the first place and also that Cadbury sticks to it. Smaggle always promotes sensible consumption of treat foods.
P.P.P.S I received a block of Cadbury Dark Mousse Chocolate to review and it was pretty bloody good but I’ve heard rumours that the Raspberry Mousse is pretty amazing too.
