Not had one for ages. But it used to be a favourite, and unless they did something daft and changed the recipe, I think it a mistake to drop it.

I used to love caramac  I didn't realise it was still around.  NNw I only like dark chocolate, but i wouldn't mind trying a bit.

 

[Lie-in King]

Not had one for a donkey's age, but I seem to recall they were quite sickly-sweet.

I bet it's more than 30 years since I had a walnut whip.

Loved them but thought they were too expensive 

[Ellipsis]

Absolute filth ...

[retrocop]

Not in the least. I use chocolate for chilli con carne only

Ellipsis, many a man was disappointed to learn that the Caramel bunny is the marvelous  Miriam Margolyes

[Countrylover]

That's puts me right off Barry.   Can't stand that woman!

[anneasquith]

She's so crude now, used to be a fan . 

[Redhelen72]

how nice to have an almost 100% pleasant thread in news

[Redhelen72]

Also Miriam never used to be so crude - I think she got to an age where she just wanted to be herself and not what others thought she should be

DM headline

"Iconic chocolate bar is discontinued"

"The caramel-based chocolate bar first appeared on shelves in 1959...

...the iconic bar - which is made from condensed milk and treacle and doesn't contain chocolate..."

Eh?

[Countrylover]

For me  it's

Hot milk

Bananas

Chicken and turkey manure

 

[Countrylover]

Sorry.  Wrong thread!

[ynnafymmi]

Yuch.Never a favourite of mine.Far too sickly sweet for my liking.

[Ellipsis]

> Also Miriam never used to be so crude

I think Queen Elizabeth I had something to do with it ...

[Dagman]

All the chocolate bars I loved have all been tampered with to make them as cheap as possible to make changing the recipes, making them smaller yet more expensive. I buy non famous brands now. 

[smurfchops]

I am hooked in the two finger Caramel Kit Kat .....

[barry1010]

The DM is stupid.  Caramac was never marketed as a chocolate bar.  I recall it being called a candy bar.

[ynnafymmi]

One chocolate bar i really miss is the Topic Bar.I see from Google it was discontinued in 2022.Shame.
