Cadbury's Drinking Chocolate

[chrismpw]

Well, makes a change from blaming brexit, covid or Putin ...

Putin is to blame for causing a stupid war based on his own paranoia, which the free market capitalists of the west have used as an excuse to make everything more expensive.

Covid or brexit isn't the cause of a cocoa shortage.

Delivered half a pallet of the stuff to Booths warehouse this morning, if you're near one of them

Thank me later.

they're amazing - you literally melt a bag of chocolate into milk.

Galaxy drinking choc is nice.

Thanks for the info. Gave it a whirl. It was OK. Prefer Cadbury's to be honest.

Sorry to be such a miserable sod ...

I got some Twinnings hot chocolate recently. Definitely far better than Cadbury.

Having a mug of this now. Deffo nice but I wouldn't say it was any better than the proper Cadbury's stuff.

I'm too old to be changing things like hot chocolate preferences ...

Just break up and zap some actual dairy milk in the microwave for 30-45 sec and add warm milk. 1000% better than powdered chocolate.

This stuff is tremendous, most hot chocolate is a bit too much for me. After a couple sips I’m done. Only time I’ve ever had hot chocolate that I liked was in Australia. In some chocolate shop chain that did an Aztec one, really thick with a bit of cinnamon and chilli in it. Cadburys is to sickly for me so I don’t know why I liked this one so much. If anyone in Oz knows the name of this chocolate shop chain I think I went to it in Melbourne.

Edit, found the place. It’s called San Churro and the drink was the Azteca

There’s a UK manufacturer that has its own stores, that also does an ‘Aztec’ hot chocolate called Montezuma’s. Might have had a store over there possibly?

Going to keep an eye out for that Horlicks though, love malted chocolate drinks.

When I got back from Oz I became obsessed with it and used to get this in Asda. It’s the mutts nuts. Asda don’t sell it anymore but you can find it online, used to be £5 for a big tub but now it’s pretty pricy.

I’d defo recommend that Horlicks though mate, really nice and not too chocolatey. I know that sounds weird me saying that after saying how much I loved that thick stuff. I think the chilli and cinnamon stopped it being to much, also comes in a small cup cos it’s so potent. FYI Mrs Bedford blue will thank you for the chilli in your chocolate. It does more then Taste good

When I were nipper, we had cocoa powder. You had to put sugar in it or it tasted revolting.

 

[Cels]

I'm definitely going to give the Chocolate Horlicks a go.
