    I bought one because they are on a half-price offer (£1.29) at the Co-Op, not terribly impressed, just tasted of sweetness, no real nut flavour coming through, prefer Galaxy cookie crunch. Definitely wouldn't pay full price for one.
    Favourite bar of choc at the moment is one from Lindt's Creation range - Sumptuous Orange "an indulgent heart filled with zesty orange pieces wrapped in rich dark chocolate" Extremely toothsome!

      I've now tried just the small one, picked up as predicted at a service station (you tempter, ER! ) - perfectly nice, as you say Anna not really nutty, just a sweet crunchy texture in the chocolate. I wouldn't buy a big one either, but I'd buy another small 6-piece bar as an option to standard milk chocolate...

      ... but I don't know about the Galaxy alternative, I'd like to try that as well


      PS Anna do you mean Galaxy Cookie Crumble, available it seems only from.... ahem... (vinteuil - look away)... Tesco? http://www.thechocolatereview.net/20...ookie-crumble/
      "...the isle is full of noises,
      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

        Sorry, it is Galaxy Cookie Crumble which I think is quite yumptious and not sickly. Well, vints will be pleased that I've always bought mine from Waitrose .... The Cadburys Marvellous Creations with jelly popping candy sounds absolutely gross, I dare anyone to try it!

          Well I loved the cookie nut crunch but I'm not tempted by that jelly popping thingy Anna.
          Been getting through a few of these lately.



          They dunk like a dream.

            This looks strangely Aero-like, ER. Are they similar?

            I admire your commitment to dunking. Do you have to chill them first?

                Must just remark that boarders seem wedded to Nestle and Cadbury....

                I admit to being a Lindt sucker

                  Not at all, on my post upthread I admit to Lindt's Orange being my favourite at the moment and I like their Intense range, particularly the salted caramel, but sometimes only a bit of Galaxy will do for an instant sweetness hit.
                  I don't share Rob's enthusiasm for dunking chocolate bars, the only permissable dunk is that of a gingernut!

                    I tried one the other day ER, all in the interest of science you understand () and I loved it - triffic dunker!

                    Meanwhile ... yesterday I tried a 70% dark choc Kit-Kat - what a total delight it is. I may have to get another today and chill it a while but at the moment it is very much at the top of my list for a sophisticated sweet (-ish) munch
