Cadbury Crunchie Chocolate Bar

In just 9 days World of Snacks will begin selling candy, crisps, cakes, and chocolate bars from England online.  Each month following we will add a new country and their delicious snacks to our inventory.  Leading up to the grand opening of our store we are reviewing a British Snack every single day.  Once the store launches, all the recently reviewed snacks from the UK will be offered for sale in the US and shipped internationally.  Yesterday we found our new favorite candy bar, the Nestle White Lion.  Today we are reviewing another chocolate bar, this one produced by Cadbury.

Cadbury is one of the leading British Snack brands and produces many of the top chocolate bars from England.  Among these British Candy bars is the Cadbury Flake, one of our all time favorite chocolate snacks from anywhere the world.  Although Cadbury currently manufactures the snack under review, J.S. Fry & Sons initially developed it back in 1929.  For some reason Cadbury chooses to use the Fry’s brand one some of their snacks, but not all, and not the one we are looking at now.  Our review today is for the Cadbury Crunchie Chocolate Bar.

This snack from England comes in a shinny gold wrapper, has the trademark Cadbury logo in the left top corner, and has red text that reads “Cruchie” running across the width of the bar.  Underneath the Crunchie logo, the bar reads, “Milk Chocolate with Golden Honeycombed Centre.”  Although we had an idea of what we were reviewing, we didn’t fully understand it until we started our taste test.

The Cadbury Crunchie Chocolate Bar does indeed have a honeycombed center, although what is the center exactly?   Our first guess was a burned, hardened caramel.  To be sure we jumped online to see exactly what was the center of the Crunchie Bar.  Turns out we were close, the center is toffee, and toffee and caramel are very similar.  In fact, the main difference is how they are cooked.  So our guess was right, but more importantly, how does the Cadbury Crunchie taste?

Well, this snack is good, but not great.  Our entire testing group involved enjoyed the Cadbury Crunchie Chocolate Bar, but no one was truly wowed.  Of course the Cadbury chocolate coating is delicious, but the center just didn’t do it for us.  We definitely recommend this British Chocolate Bar to those who have previously enjoyed, and we do encourage new testers to try it, but it just left something to be desired.  The toffee center is very crunchy, and crumbles in your mouth.  It’s sweet, very sweet, and tasty but overall, it comes together to make an OK snack.

Well there you have it.  If you are searching for the Cadbury Crunchie Chocolate Bar from England in just 9 days you will be able to buy it in the US and have it shipped anywhere in the world.
