Yes, you will need to wait for one of the "oldies" to come on and give you an answer.

If the Skippy bar wasn't available separately, how come we have this old post:


Can you help me, i often reminisce about a chocolate bar i used to eat when doing my paper round 20 years ago. It was called Skippy, it had a blue wrapper with red and yellow writing. They where a bit thicker than a curly wurley with a biscuit base a thin layer of caramel all wrapped up with a coating of chocolate. I have searched on Google but cant find any references, all it came up with was some peanut butter bar.

Am i going mad?

 

Did this person eat a selection box every day?

So, what were Skippy bars like then? What did they contain? I'd love to know and can't imagine why I don't really remember them as I go back much further than the 70s!

But these are not Cadburys. They are obviously Australian.

Skippy bars were made by Cadbury's and apparently resembled a single Twix or Drifter type bar - very chewy.  So I've been told!
