'Wonka' bars are back!

grimtales1 · 18-09-2013, 17:01

Remember when we had Wonka chocolate Bars in the UK for the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory film some years back? There seem to be 2 new ones now - dont know of any more.

Chocolate Nice Cream is 'chocolate with a smooth vanilla filling with chocolate sauce' - was OK, reminds of the Magnum chocolates.

Millionaire's Shortbread - this one is GORGEOUS

It's 'caramel with crunchy biscuit pieces', the caramel is very sweet.
Quite expensive (60p) though.

I saw some in the supermarket the other day but I haven't had any yet. Am tempted to try them though

60p isn't all that expensive. It's about the same as a normal chocolate bar.

60p is expensive. The price of sweets these days that people have to wait until they reduce them in price.

Some people have good memories to what things cost twenty or thirty years ago and frown when they see how much things have gone up such as Pringles.

I dont mind things going up a bit per se, it pisses me off when that is coupled with the things getting smaller too

Tiwttmos · 19-09-2013, 16:01

Who's the manufacturer?

Simi89 · 20-09-2013, 13:46

Nestlé I think. I like the nice cream bar.

At least it's a good brand!

Rogana Josh · 20-09-2013, 16:51

Camino · 21-09-2013, 07:20

They have them in Tesco. I shall wait til they are in Home Bargains or BM , I never buy full price chocolate bars nowadays.

misslibertine · 23-09-2013, 11:45

I've seen them in my local newsagents, I'm tempted every time I go in but I have a hard time justifying 60p for a relatively small bar

thanks tried both yesterday, like the caramel one but the vanilla one was too sickly for me

dgi_m · 10-10-2013, 19:42

I had the one with the filling.

It can't say that it lived up to my expectations of Wonka chocolate to be honest

Simi89 · 10-10-2013, 21:41

I liked the wonka bars from a few years back that came out after the film in 2005.

curvybabes · 11-10-2013, 21:34

Asda are selling the bigger bars for £1.20, I havent tried any of the flavours yet but I,ve ordered a millionaire shortbread one with my delivery.

What about those ones that used to be purple? Wish they'd bring those back instead!
