Cadbury’s New and Amazing Flavors!
Ever since Cadbury was taken over by Kraft company in 2010 there has been many new and different flavours of the good old Cadbury Dairy Milk bar. Oreo, Toffee Popcorn, Cookie Crunch, Toffee Apple, and many more. Though I am faithful to the sacred original dairy milk and the walnut dairy milk bars, I was always up to trying the new ones just for the sake of trying. None really made much of an impression on me or became a favorite, aside perhaps from the cookie crunch launched last year which was the best of them all. However, after my last trip to London I’ve fallen head over heels in love with not one, but two new Cadbury dairy milk flavours that are now in my top five favourite Cadbury chocolates list!
First things first, the new biscuit/dairy milk bars! Two different products, one is a bard of daily milk with tiny slabs LU biscuits dotting the bar and the other just the same but with tiny slabs of Ritz salted crackers dotting the bar.
I must confess that I personally wouldn’t have reached out to those LU and Ritz Cadbury Dairy milk bars on my own but I have a husband who adores all types and kinds of biscuits and for his sake I got some of those for him to try, they came in a pack of three anyway. I decided to try the Ritz one day when I arrived back in Kuwait.
The good thing about those hybrid dairy milk and biscuit bars is the ration between biscuit and bar. If you don’t like the biscuits, you can nibble your way around them and when you do bite into the whole thing the amount of chocolate is more than the amount of biscuit.
The ratio of chocolate and biscuit also means that the chocolate is more dominant so you get all the smooth richness of the sweet dairy milk chocolate with the added bonus of the crunch of the biscuit. I did however prefer Ritz over Lu and claimed all the bars as mine. Why?
Because the Ritz crackers are salty! And they added a salty crunchy edge to the already delicious dairy milk and why on earth wasn’t a hint of salt added to Cadbury’s dairy milk before is beyond me! If they make a salted caramel biscuit Cadbury dairy milk bar, I guarantee it would be the best chocolate bar in the entire world! Lu’s biscuits however just added the crunch and not the salty edge, therefore didn’t impress me much.
The second Cadbury dairy milk bar is the one my husband grabbed off a shelf just because and didn’t even look twice at the “flavour”. When I arrived in Kuwait I read the label and it said “Cola Pretzel Honeycomb”! How interesting? Cola as in cola cola? Pretzels?
I took a bite, and the rich crunchy chewy salty sweet bomb that exploded on my tongue made me take another, and another. Who would have thought that jamming an entire cinema snack in a bar would yield such a taste? One word to describe it: AWESOME! Quite addictive sadly and since I almost polished off the entire bar in one go and I didn’t have any more in my stash, I do hope any of you good nice chocolate-appreciating readers would be kind enough to inform me, here or on instagram, the moment they see this bar in Kuwait either in Sultan Center or any other chocolate selling outlets. Do try it yourself, that cola pretzel bar and the ritz one, both are amazing and I hope they keep making them forever!
