Fry's peppermint creams - the ones that came in a hex/octagonal tube; a regular feature in my Christmas stocking around a thousand years ago. And for the crunchy lovers out there, try The Chocolate Society's "Hokey-Pokey". Milk or dark, and now they have it in Easter egg form.
Thanks! Happily (on several levels) it must be a year or two since I had one.

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.

Some nostalgic wrapper designs here - including your 'Fry's 5 Centres' Edge... (I remember those 'Week End' chocolate boxes being very disappointing when the grandparents had them )
However it has reminded me that Cadbury's ICE BREAKER was a MASSIVE favourite of mine! You could suck away all the chocolate from your mouthful, and be left with a load of crunchy mint shards! YUM!!! Possibly the first time in 30 years that has crossed my mind! (Earlier 'list' post duly amended)
What a super pic that is.
Does anyone remember the Milk Tray bar ?
I recall they were quite expensive,I couldn't afford one until I started work.
My dad would bring one home on pay day and share it with us,that was one chocolate each,'appy days.

Eeee lad!
Question is: would you risk it for a Swisskit?
(We never did. Sounded really boring
Likewise I always found Terry's WAIFA offputting, I thought the stupid spelling must mean the chocolate was dodgy. I was such a prig at the age of 10 )

In his edit john corrigan mentions Rolos (which I liked and surely are still around?) but there were also Munchies and a peppermint version called Mintola. It's rare for me to buy a chocolate bar now (as opposed to a bar of chocolate, if you follow) but occasionally Mars do a Limited Editiion which is dark chocolate - I love those, a normal Mars is too sickly sweet.
