I used to carefully bite off the milk chocolate, then shave off the bubbly white chocolate with my teeth, then there would be a slightly thicker bit of milk chocolate around the biscuit which I would carefully nibble off, leaving just the chocolate flavoured biscuit which was, by now, just asking to be snaffled.” While firm favourites Mini Eggs and the Creme Egg will remain on the shelves this spring, Cadbury says it is removing Dairy Milk Egg ‘n’ Spoon cartons from its seasonal range to reflect people’s ‘changing tastes’.

Why does Cadbury Flake taste different?
The main ingredients of any milk chocolate are cocoa, milk and sugar. That much they all have in common. What may differ are the proportions, the taste of the raw ingredients, the way they are mixed together, and any extra ingredients.
Remaining on sale in South Africa, there was much excitement among chocolate fans last year when retailer B&M managed to get its hands on some Astros and put the boxes back on sale for just over £1.The Trio was a toffee flavoured biscuit bar first produced by Jacob’s and proved to be a popular snack in the 1980s, however Jacob’s stopped producing the bars, which came in a red wrapper, in 2003.And it remained a staple part of the sweet and chocolate section in most shops and supermarkets until 2006 when it was taken out of production in the UK. The Cadbury Fuse arrived in 1996 and was made up of milk chocolate, nuts, raisins, cereal and fudge pieces. A reported 40 million Fuse bars were said to have been snapped up during its first weeks on sale. Launched in 1997 Astros were made by Cadbury and were said to be designed as a rival to Nestle Smarties and Mars M&Ms. The candy coated chocolate with a biscuit centre was a firm favourite in the UK during the 90s before being discontinued.First launched in 1995, the bubbly Cadbury chocolate in mint flavour stuck around for eight years before being taken off the shelves. It has yet to make a return like the original Wispa.

The Cabana was a milk chocolate bar found inside a blue wrapper where the inside of the sweet treat was filled with a coconut and caramel filling and chunks of cherry.

Popular in the 1980s the bar was discontinued by the York-based firm in the 90s. Despite numerous petitions and facebook groups that have long campaigned for its return it’s yet to make its comeback.
Very much like the Freddo bar we see in shops today the small slab of Cadbury milk chocolate, filled with caramel, used to feature the Loony Tunes character Taz, the Tasmanian devil. Bars proved to be a popular pocket money treat often only costing 5p each.

Dream was a white chocolate bar made by Cadbury that was similar to Nestle’s Milkybar. No longer manufactured in the UK you can still buy the Cadbury white chocolate bar in parts of Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. However at Christmas, a white chocolate advent calendar from Cadbury is often available to buy in England with the chunks behind the doors closely resembling the now outdated Dream. The spiral chocolate bar – which took its name from the spiral like chocolate shape inside – was first launched in the north east of England by Cadbury in the 1980s. After proving to be exceptionally popular it was rolled out across the UK and became a firm favourite among chocolate fans. The Trio brand, now owned by United Biscuits and produced under the McVitie’s name made a temporary comeback in 2016 when the bars went on sale for a limited amount of time. The decision to bring back the retro treat is thought to have been driven by the huge popularity of a Facebook campaign that appealed for its return.A Fox’s Echo was a combination of white chocolate on the top half of the bar and milk chocolate on the bottom. Technically a biscuit more than a chocolate bar it was billed as the perfect after school snack or lunchbox treat in the late 90s but was later replaced by other wrapped biscuits in the Fox’s range and in particular the Velvety bar.

Released every Easter since 2013, the Egg ‘n’ Spoon treat consisted of four chocolate eggs, wrapped in foil and packaged in a traditional cardboard egg box with a plastic spoon that could be used to crack and eat each one.

Why can't you melt a Flake?
Although Flake is made from milk chocolate, the manufacturing process gives it a different arrangement of fat and cocoa solids, so the melting fat isn’t able to lubricate the cocoa particles to the point where they can flow. In a bain marie, a Flake will never melt. In the microwave, it eventually just burns.
But the iconic chocolate maker has said it won’t be bringing the Dairy Milk eggs in their box back this year and instead has some ‘great new treats’ for fans to try.The Taz bar was released in 1994 and remained on shelves for a few years before being pulled. The Freddo frog character and bar continues to be a favourite.The Wispa bar from Cadbury, which first arrived in 1981, disappeared for a while but then made an extremely popular comeback in 2007 – however the same can’t yet be said for its friend the Wispa Mint.A mix between a traditional Cadbury Flake and a Twirl the Cadbury Snowflake was crumbly white chocolate encased in milk chocolate. The Snowflake was also at points called a Flake Snow to separate it from its milk chocolate counterpart. It arrived on shelves in 2000 but by 2008 had been discontinued in the UK. The bar – under its name Flake Snow – is still available in other parts of the world.

Savor the unrivaled delicate, crumbly texture of the best chocolate flakes that taste like heaven! The Cadbury Flake is a delicious flaky chocolate bar, created by accident when a Cadbury employee at the Cadbury factory in Birmingham, England, dropped some chocolate onto a rolling conveyor belt. Cadbury Flake chocolate bars are made from Cadbury’s milk chocolate and have a flaky surface.
This Flake bar presents a delicious treat with each chocolate candy offering the iconic pleated milk chocolate layers. The Cadbury Flake is light and flaky, forming smooth, creamy overlays that have a firm and almost crunchy bite that leaves the Cadbury Flake to melt deliciously in your mouth. It gives a sweet but not too compelling flavor, without the oily feel as it touches the palate. Each Flake bar contains 525 Calories for every 32g pack. Cadbury has surely made a Flake of heaven with each bar of this chocolate goodness.

Is Flake chocolate discontinued?
Cadbury Snowflake was one of the most beloved chocolate bars of the 1970s and 80s. It was made by Cadbury and sold in the United Kingdom. Sadly, it was eventually discontinued. It was a popular snack among children and adults alike, but its demise left many wondering why it was taken off the shelves.
Some compare the Cadbury Flake and Twirl, saying both are the same but definitely they are not. The Cadbury Flake is a chocolate bar made from Cadbury milk chocolate layered in flakes. The Cadbury Twirl, or the dipped flake, is made of Cadbury dairy milk chocolate flakes but smothered all over with extra choco coating.You don’t have to drive around! The English Tea Store gives you your favorite Flake bar within your reach. You are even guaranteed quantity discounts when you buy six or more packs of Cadbury Flake!Unlike any other chocolate bars, Cadbury Flake chocolate bars are impossible to melt inside the oven. Add the Flake bars on top of your desserts or break them into pieces and spread them over your confection.Although wheat is not included in Cadbury Flake’s ingredient list, unfortunately, Cadbury works around an environment where gluten products are made. It may still contain traces of gluten.

Dunk a Flake bar into your favorite ice cream or accentuate the chocolatey taste crumbled to your cheesecake or mousse recipes. You can even put the flakes standing around your birthday cake as if holding it together!
The product gained some notoriety for its highly sensual advertising. In the UK, the advertisements showed people – almost always women – enjoying a Flake whilst relaxing. Flake is a British brand of chocolate bar currently manufactured by British chocolate company Cadbury, owned by Mondelez International, consisting of thinly folded milk chocolate. The bar has a unique crumbly texture, and softens but does not melt when heated. In 2021 and again in 2022, Mondelez announced that there were shortages of Flakes in the UK and Ireland. In 2021 this was attibuted to high levels of demand due to good weather. In 2022, Mondelez attributed the shortages to “some global supply chain disruptions” alongside demand pressures.

In 1999, a tribute advertisement to the Flake Girls of decades past was released. The montage began with a clip of the very first Flake Girl advertisement from 1959, followed by a 1965 clip of a girl relaxing in a rowing boat whilst being pestered by a cheeky swan for a peck of her Flake bar. The next clip showed the 1973 advertisement of a doe-eyed artist in a field of poppies painting a watercolour and indulging in a Flake bar, before being caught in a summer shower. This was followed by a clip of the exotic 1987 ad in which a restless woman in silk negligee reposes on a window sill on a sultry night, indulging in a Flake bar whilst a gecko lizard is noted crawling over a ringing telephone. Next was a clip of the classical 1991 Flake advertisement in which a woman sporting a dark, cropped hairstyle reposes in an overflowing bath tub in a great painted hall. Lastly, this tribute montage advertisement ended with the latest Flake Girl advertisement (1999), featuring a Parisienne relaxing in a summery garden overlooking the Eiffel Tower. As she bites into the Flake bar in her ice-cream, the garden sprinklers are set off and she is drenched in refreshing water.

By 1930, Cadbury’s was selling half-length Flake specifically for garnishing vanilla soft serve ice cream in a cone (“99 Flakes”) which was served by ice cream vendors. First sold in the UK, they would later be sold in Ireland, Australia, South Africa and other nations. The later product, Cadbury Twirl, has two Flake-style bars covered in milk chocolate.
The Flake song was composed by UK jingle writer Ronnie Bond, who also composed “Tasty tasty very very tasty” for Bran Flakes, and “I’d rather have a bowl of Coco Pops” for Coco Pops.

Why do Cadbury flakes not melt?
According to Science Focus, the Flake’s manufacturing process means the way the fat and cocoa solids are arranged is different to other chocolate bars. This means the fat isn’t able to adequately lubricate the cocoa particles to the point where they flow, and so it can’t melt.
Former Tyrannosaurus Rex percussionist Steve Peregrin Took wrote a song, Peppermint Flickstick, in 1970 as a satire on the campaign. The song was recorded that year by his band Shagrat and released in 1990.The Flake girl was finally retired after 40 years, in 2004. However, in 2005 she was found to have a 19% recall in the UK population, leading to a revival in 2007. The new advertisement featured Australian model Alyssa Sutherland eating a Flake in a convertible during a shower of rain.

Cadbury refers to the exact process of making Flakes as a closely guarded secret; however, experimental evidence by food scientist Ann Reardon shows that the result can be recreated by seizing chocolate.
The Flake Girl became famous as a symbol of indulgence and secret pleasure. Her emphasis – to a jingle (“Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate, tastes like chocolate never tasted before”) – was on allowing herself a guilt-free luxury. The advertising of a girl in a field was produced by Barry Myers.UK singer Joss Stone became the new Flake girl in 2008 – the first non-model to promote the product. In the television advertisement she is seen breaking off a small piece of Flake before popping it into her mouth and brushing the crumbs off her blouse whilst softly singing the Flake theme song.

The original Flake product was first developed in 1920 and was discovered by chance by Ralph Thompson, an employee of Cadbury’s at the Bournville factory who noticed thin streams of excess chocolate falling from moulds cooled into flaky ripples.
On 8 June 2010, a new advertisement (first aired on Channel 4) saw a woman float around on a black background. Whilst part of ‘The Flake girl’ series, there is no mention of any text or slogan aside from the image of the bar at the end of the advertisement, and the familiar music jingle is replaced by a haunting piano piece.

Lawrence Allen says Europeans have a prejudice against American chocolate.”The chocolate tradition in America evolved differently than it did in Europe,” he says. While chocolate is a delicacy or at the very least a treat in Europe, it is a mass-market product of the everyman in the US, he says.

“I know people in Australia who are die-hard Cadbury advocates,” says Lawrence Allen. “But they go on business trips to the UK, and they bring their own chocolate.”
In a test conducted by BBC Newsround, British and American children tasted the two types of Cadbury chocolate. Surprisingly, most of the American children preferred the British-made Cadbury chocolate, while most of the British children liked the US-made version better.As an expat living on the border of U.S. and Canada and having a partner who is also British and makes frequent visits back home, I can tell you there is a difference between U.S. Cadbury’s and that of Canada. The Canadian one is much better but the prize must go to that from the U.K. a hands down winner.

Some have added comments along with their signatures, like Dayne Thomas from Richfield, Minnesota who writes: “Maybe the reason people prefer British chocolate is that it’s not the over-sugared minimal cocoa butter garbage that Hershey’s makes. If they want to sell more product, how about they make a better product??”
In addition, the EU allows a different kind of “milk chocolate” to be sold in the UK and Ireland (it must be labelled “family milk chocolate” anywhere else in the EU). This contains at least 20% cocoa (powder and butter combined) and 20% milk solids – and Cadbury Dairy Milk falls into this category. The list of ingredients on the back of a British-made Cadbury Dairy Milk bar says it contains a minimum of 20% cocoa solids. When it comes to “milk solids” the label says: “20% minimum, actual 23%”. The more time spent combining the ingredients, the smoother the resulting chocolate will be, says Lawrence Allen. A luxurious chocolate, like Lindt, may be mixed for 12 hours or more, he says, while a mass-market bar, like Hershey’s or Cadbury’s, may be mixed for only two or three. I’m currently in Perth, Western Australia, and my family and I certainly think that the Cadburys chocolate tastes different from the UK. In fact, my family (all expats) ask for choccy to be brought over. Unfortunately that is illegal in Australia so they have to buy their milk chocolate fix in British specialty shops. The Australian chocolate tastes waxy, and sweeter. We’ve always been told it’s an additive to increase the melting point for hotter climates?! No one wants a soggy choccy bar, after all!I work in London, and an Irish colleague insisted that Irish Dairy Milk was better than British. We, in a flood of patriotism, didn’t believe her, so the next time she returned from a trip back home to Dublin she brought back some evidence. We carried out a blind taste test in the office, and about 90% of us agreed (reluctantly) that the Irish variety is better. Now she brings us back Irish Cadbury’s every time she makes a trip home. The Cadbury’s Golden Crisp, unavailable in the UK, is especially gorgeous. He’s not the only one who thinks so. More than 37,000 people have signed a petition to boycott Hershey’s, which has the licence to produce Cadbury chocolate in the US, and regards imported British-made Cadbury chocolate as a trademark infringement. With dual citizenship in the UK and US, and 24 years lived in the latter, Cadbury’s does taste different in the US and many countries. In my opinion, the New Zealand version tasted best, produced in a factory in Dunedin.I am originally from South Africa having lived and worked in the US and now residing in the UK. I would second that South African chocolate is far better than both US & UK chocolate but would disagree with most of the previous comments and say that Hershey is much better than UK chocolate. If you widen the debate to include Reese’s (owned by Hershey) you now have the best chocolate in the world.

So what is it that differentiates these chocolates? We carried out a taste test with British and American tasters, spoke to experts, and tried to get some answers out of the companies.
When it came to distinguishing between the US-made and UK-made Cadbury chocolate one taster noted that they were “quite similar”, another thought that they tasted exactly the same. Those who detected a difference didn’t always agree on much beyond that. One thought the US sample was creamier and more gooey, another felt the opposite, saying that the UK sample was “more melty”. One said the US sample was sweeter, another disagreed. And the tasters were divided on which of the two was better.But there is one significant difference between British and US chocolate among these other ingredients. The UK, like the rest of the EU, allows up to 5% non-cocoa vegetable fats to be blended with the crumb, along with cocoa butter. The US does not.

I simply have to comment on this article, which is the latest of several I’ve seen in which Britons compare their chocolate to the Americans’ and smugly assert its superiority. Wake up people: British chocolate is also crap. It’s so low-quality that, when the UK joined the EU (then EEC) in 1973, it had to receive an exemption to the European rules defining chocolate so that Cadbury & co could even continue calling their products “chocolate”.A look at the different minimum standards for chocolate imposed in the US and the European Union might also lead someone to this conclusion. Milk chocolate in the EU must contain 30% cocoa, whereas in the US it need only contain 10%. It’s also notable that Cadbury sources all its cocoa from West Africa, while this is only one of the places Hershey’s buys it. There could be a slight difference in taste. There is a slight difference regarding the emulsifiers. The US version lists soy lecithin and PGPR while the UK version lists E442 and E476. PGPR and E476, however, are the same thing. Soy lecithin and E442 are different but do the same job.

The main ingredients of any milk chocolate are cocoa, milk and sugar. That much they all have in common. What may differ are the proportions, the taste of the raw ingredients, the way they are mixed together, and any extra ingredients.

The ground-up cacao bean is made of cocoa butter, and non-fat cocoa powder (or “cocoa mass,” as it appears in the list of ingredients of a British-made Dairy Milk bar). Taken together these may be referred to as dry cocoa solids, or chocolate liquor. Generally a more expensive and higher quality chocolate has a higher proportion of cocoa, which may explain why people who don’t like Hershey’s sometimes state that it contains less cocoa than Cadbury chocolate.
According to Jennifer Earle, a UK-based chocolate consultant, Cadbury first combines the milk with sugar and then dehydrates it. This caramelised milk is then mixed with cocoa. Meanwhile, Hershey’s mixes the cocoa with sugar and then adds dehydrated milk. The resulting taste is “very different”, Earle says.

Everyone in our taste test could tell the difference between the Cadbury Dairy Milk and Hershey’s milk chocolate. They used terms like “harder”, “more bitter”, and “not as rich” to describe Hershey’s, even when they liked it. None of the tasters selected it as their favourite of the three samples and two said they would not choose to eat it at all.
Actually, that seems unlikely. Hershey’s makes Cadbury chocolate using Cadbury “crumb” – a sandy-textured paste of powdered cocoa, milk and sugar – shipped from the other side of the Atlantic. It’s hard to imagine there is much difference between the crumb that ends up in US-made Cadbury chocolate, which is produced in Ireland, from the crumb produced in Herefordshire for British-made Cadbury chocolate.

Can Muslims eat Cadbury?
There has been a long-standing debate about whether Cadbury chocolate is halal among Muslims. Thankfully, the answer is a resounding yes. Muslims are allowed to consume chocolate as a plant-based food made from the seeds of the cacao tree, which is a plant-based food.
We get both American and British chocolates here in Lagos, Nigeria. The preference is for British chocolate, which we grew up on because of the historical links between the two countries. Though more recently most of our Cadbury chocolates are imported from the UAE and Saudi Arabia. On a final note I think the Cadbury chocolates from the UAE and Saudi Arabia also taste different, but I am used to it now.Having moved around a fair bit, I find the UK Cadbury Milk chocolate preferably to Hershey’s but Hershey’s Cookies and Cream preferable to any of the White Chocolate UK products. The joke is neither of them touch Swiss or Belgian chocolate of any type.Different milk, however, could help explain the difference between Hershey’s chocolate and Cadbury’s – and so could what happens to the milk in the production process.The very best tasting Cadbury’s chocolate in the world was unquestionably that which was made in New Zealand in the 80s and 90s. Later on the entire production was moved to Australia. Since then the chocolate has had a sickly sweet taste which burns the back of the mouth. I’m not putting down Australia, but things change and not always for the best. I would still prefer the Australian Cadbury’s to British which is often dry and dusty.

Moves to prevent retailers importing British-made Cadbury chocolate into the US have scandalised some expats, who say US-made Cadbury chocolate is inferior – and who often view Hershey’s, the most popular US chocolate, as beneath contempt. But how big is the difference?Cadbury’s in New Zealand and Australia is horrible. Went visiting family in 2005 and was warned by my sister that it tasted ‘funny’ and not to buy any. But it was Easter time, and I was desperate for some – I couldn’t believe how awful it was. It tasted cheap and nasty.

Cadburys chocolate tastes very different here in Germany. I had a British bar of chocolate I bought at the airport in the UK and one we bought in a canteen at work in Koln. I proved to colleagues that german chocolate is less sugary and has an almost caramel like taste.
So, how much cocoa does a Hershey’s bar contain? According to Jeff Beckman, the company’s director of corporate communications, it contains about 30% dry cocoa solids – cocoa powder and cocoa butter combined. About 1.5 times as much as a bar of Cadbury’s Dairy Milk.I’m a British ex-pat in Texas. US made chocolate, Cadbury’s or Hershey’s is just awful. It’s grainy and bitter. Some time ago, I grabbed a bar of US Cadbury’s at a petrol station in Texas on a long drive and could only manage a couple of bites. I bring a bagful of Galaxy chocolate back with me on every trip. Much like bacon, the US has managed to find a way to ruin a perfectly good snack.However, this applies more to continental Europe than to the UK, where Dairy Milk and its competitors such as Galaxy account for a large percentage of chocolate sales.

But these figures are very deceptive. The US requirement for 10% cocoa refers only to non-fat cocoa powder. The overall amount of cocoa, including cocoa butter, will be higher. In the EU, meanwhile, the requirement for chocolate to contain 30% cocoa refers to both cocoa powder and cocoa butter, so the percentage of cocoa powder alone will be lower.
But there’s more. Hershey’s puts milk through a process called lipolysis, Earle says. This partially sours the milk, and creates butyric acid – a compound found in such diverse substances as parmesan cheese and baby spit-up. It gives the chocolate a “tangy taste” as Earle puts it. The chief advantage of this method is that chocolate can remain on shelves longer without the taste changing – but it’s also a taste American consumers have become accustomed to and nowadays even expect. Interestingly, it was a British expat in the US, Alexandra Dimsdale, who immediately recognised the taste of “normal” British-made Cadbury chocolate, and identified a “weird aftertaste” in the US-made version – and in Hershey’s too. Yes, it does taste different. I prefer the taste of UK Dairy Milk over the one currently sold here (the US version). Unfortunately, we in Canada have lost most of our domestic chocolate producers to US-based companies, and they’ve changed the chocolate recipes to their formulas. Our chocolate bars no longer taste as they did when I was a child. Our chocolate used to taste much more like that sold in the UK.I travelled in Ireland in the 1980s and thought CDM was nicer there than in England – like the Guinness I suppose – richer, more milky overall. Also, we lived in South Africa in the late 1990s and I found the same then – CDM tasted different and nicer: slightly softer and milkier. I put it down to different (nicer and creamier perhaps) milk in both cases.

Has Flake been discontinued?
It arrived on shelves in 2000 but by 2008 had been discontinued in the UK. The bar – under its name Flake Snow – is still available in other parts of the world.
When I was in the biz a few years ago, Cadbury primarily used Ghana cocoa which was by far the best bulk West African beans, better farmed, better prepared. They also used high quality hard cocoa butter from West Africa and the far East. Hershey were a mix of South/Central American/Caribbean beans, Indonesian, and various West African beans and cocoa butter, and South American cocoa butter (which can be softer). This produces a less chocolatey chocolate (at least by European palates). To be fair, Hershey flavour is much loved by Americans.

Cadbury’s chocolate most definitely does taste different in different countries. I have had Cadbury’s chocolate from the UK, Ireland, South Africa, Australia, the US and even Russia. South African is the best, followed closely by Australia. The Russian CDM was waxy dark chocolate. But I’m sure the taste has changed here too over the last 20 years.
According to Lawrence Allen, a former executive at Hershey’s and Nestle and author of Chocolate Fortunes: The Battle for the Hearts, Minds and Wallets of China’s Consumers, three main factors determine the taste of the finished product:

When I first came to live in Canada (from the UK) I was outside Wal-Mart where a Hershey’s promotion was taking place. Hershey’s Kisses were being given away. I never refuse chocolate so I unwrapped a Kiss and popped it in my mouth. It was like eating joke chocolate. The greasy, waxy texture was revolting, and I couldn’t keep it in my mouth. The poor female promoters were shocked to see me spitting out the chocolate and gagging at the same time. I haven’t touched Hershey’s chocolate since. If you compared it to dog chocolate it would come out worse.My husband and I lived in Brisbane, Australia for 17 months. Wonderful city and people but the chocolate was awful. The homemade chocolate was horrible and so was the Cadburys! Australian friends told us it was because Brisbane is so hot, with an average room temperature more like 25C, that ingredients were included in the chocolate recipe to stop it melting in the wrapper! My sister sent me a Cadburys Flake from the UK and I nearly cried when I ate it :-)Hershey’s: strong, pungent, a little gritty. Cadbury’s: caramel tones, chocolate flavor not as strong, smoother. Lindt: very smooth, mellow, rich. I like them all; they are like different facets that can be appreciated on their own terms.

Our tasters identified Cadbury’s as creamier than Hershey’s. One described Hershey’s as “chalky”, two described it as “grainy”. Does this suggest it is mixed less than Cadbury’s?The difference, Beckman explains, is that milk in chocolate in the US is measured in evaporated form, while milk in British chocolate is measured in its heavier liquid form. There is the same amount of milk in the US-made and British-made Cadbury bars.

If you look on the back of a bar of Hershey’s and a bar of British-made Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate you’ll notice a difference. Hershey’s lists sugar as its first ingredient while Cadbury lists milk first.

“We’ve thrown away 70 in a single box before because they’ve all been broken,” Alston said. “For the first time, I won’t be using Cadbury flake this year. It feels a different product. If you order a 99, you want a good solid flake in it.”“Cadbury flake 99 is a naturally delicate and crumbly product,” a spokesperson said. “We are aware that recently some customers have received a product which does not meet our usual high standards.

The flake was once so lauded because of its melt-in-the-mouth texture that its adverts described it as the “crumbliest, flakiest milk chocolate in the world” – but now ice-cream sellers are complaining they are too flaky to do their job on a 99 cone.
Flake ice-cream toppers are half the size of the chocolate bars sold in newsagents and supermarkets, with the mini versions, aimed at the hospitality trade, manufactured outside Cairo in Egypt.
