The flavours were raspberry, lime, vanilla, coffee and orange at the time this photo was taken. At 2d (two old pence) a bar, I guess this must have been in the 40s or 50s at the latest.

Its certainly different to what is offered now buy most of the chocolate brands.


Ritter Sport seem to have some good flavoured bars out. For any of those chocolate coffee lovers, the Ritter Sport Cappucino bar is lovely.

Did they change the fillings in the 5 Centres over the years? I loved them, but I know if there had been a coffee one I'd have avoided them like the plague.

I have a picture of a 5 centres as I remember them (the late 70s / early 80s) but don't know how to upload it  can anyone tell me how to upload pictures from file

It depends whether it's an internet picture or not. I had to scan this picture from a book into my son's website, then download it onto the forum (well, he did it actually).

Would love to see that picture, Cherry.  I remember the Five Centres bar as being scored into six or seven pieces - which was weird, because if you broke it along the scored lines, most pieces ended up with two different flavour creams.


Did the 70's version have the creams in the same sequence as Oldspice's picture?

I have the wrapper at home which I scanned. Now I am more familiar with this forum I know how to upload pictures so when I remember I will bring the scan in and upload it. And no, the flavours were not the same, there was definitely no coffee in my bar!

I knew that must have disappeared as, like Cherry, I was a big fan of that bar, but think coffee is puke.
