About this deal

Drifter was a chocolate bar that was first introduced in the United Kingdom in 1980 by Rowntree’s, a British confectionery company that was later acquired by Nestle, a Swiss multinational food and beverage company. The brand has been around for the best part of 85 years meaning that there have been many flavours that had to be sacrificed to make way for the current offering. It's worth noting that many of these experienced minor alterations while others were dropped altogether. The bar is made with smooth milk chocolate that is infused with crispy rice pieces for added texture.

Often referred to as Cadbury's answer to the Mars Bar, the Aztec was relatively short lived, and discontinued in 1978. But it is still fondly remembered today. HeroesLike Heroes, they comprises miniature versions of the chocolate brands owned by the manufacturer - Mars.

Golden Barrel (gold wrapper, previously named Caramel Keg); Caramel (blue wrapper); Country Fudge (light brown wrapper); Hazel in Caramel (purple wrapper); Hazel Whirl (purple wrapper with orange edges); Strawberry Dream (pink wrapper); Tangy Orange Creme (orange wrapper); Signature Truffle (red wrapper with blue edges) and Cadbury Dairy Milk (the only chocolate in the selection where the wrapper doesn't bear the 'Cadbury Roses' logo, it returned to the box in 2020 after initially being dropped following its move to Heroes). Milky Way is manufactured and marketed by Mars, Incorporated, an American multinational confectionery company. The bar has a light, fluffy nougat centre that is topped with a layer of caramel and covered in a layer of milk chocolate. It’s not just a delight, it’s Fry’s Turkish Delight. Not only that ‘it’s Full of Eastern Promise’ or so the tv advert goes. While Fry’s Chocolate Cream and Peppermint Cream bars still exist, earlier variants are no longer around. Sadly for fans of this bar, Fry’s stopped making them in 1992, after nearly 70 years in production. Some of the price differential is down to the way that the chocolate makers achieve the caramel flavour. At the top end of the price range, the Manchester artisanal makers Dormouse Chocolate do this by toasting the milk powder they use, for a gentle, smoky-creamy effect. But this takes time and care, and it is much easier – and therefore cheaper – for mass manufacturers to add a caramel-style flavouring to a base of cocoa butter or a similar fat.A recipe for success in the UK, but not necessarily across the Pond. So what are the differences between the two bars and why are the stars, or should that be planets, not aligned in the same confectionary solar system?

Time Out is manufactured by Cadbury, a British chocolate company that is owned by Mondelez International. The bar consists of two crispy wafers with a ripple of milk chocolate in between, all covered in a layer of Cadbury milk chocolate. I couldn’t help but to mention a chocolate bar, that sadly doesn’t exist anymore. Aztec 2000 was a chocolate bar that was briefly produced by Cadbury in the year 2000. It was a revival of the original Aztec chocolate bar that was produced by Cadbury from 1967 to 1978. In 2006, Divine Chocolate acquired the Dubble brand and began producing the bar using Fairtrade certified cocoa. Milky Way The current slogan for Starbar is “Get Some Nuts!” However, Starbar has had several different slogans over the years, including “The Munchiest Bar Ever!”, “Starbar – the bar with peanut power”, and “Starbar – go nuts with Cadbury”. Crunchie Chocolate is the nation's favourite treat and who doesn't love to indulge in the comfort of eating their favourite bar.

Despite public outcry, Nestlé is unmoved. “This change will enable us to focus on our best-performing brands, as well as develop exciting new innovations to delight consumers’ taste buds,” said a spokesman. The bar was originally owned by Nestle and licensed by William Neilson, which created a situation where the trademark of one of Neilson’s largest brands was owned by its largest competitor. Neilson later bought the rights to the name Mr. Big to make his own confectionery. The bar’s name is taken from it’s large size, which is around 20 centimeters (8 inches) long and the length of two “standard” sized bars. Picnic
