What a classic chocolate bar!?


Why would it ever be discontinued? The Dairy Milk Bubble is not the same!


Does anywhere know where I can get my hands on these tasty treats? YUM

Probably because it wasn't selling very well. As for where you can get them, you can't get proper Wispas anywhere, but sometimes foreign versions crop up at the market or in discount shops.

Who needs karma when you know you're great already?

Dairy Milk Bubbly is the exact same thing as Wispa. Its just a different shape and in a different wrapper.


So buy those and stop complaining.

And I suppose a KitKat is the exact same thing as a Mars Bar, just with wafer instead of caramel and nougat?

Wispas were absolutely bloody horrid.  The 'gold' and 'mint' varieties were pretty acceptable (I miss Wispa Gold actually) but the milk chocolate ones were really not nice.

I loved Wispa Gold and Mint - probably the only time variations have been nicer than the original.

I'd agree with that.

I was thinking about Wispas the other day, they were far superior to an Aero or Cadbury Bubble!

Indeed. CDM Bubbly is the wrong shape and the bubbles are too big for it to be as good as a Wispa. Aero is just Dead

I actually like CDM Bubbly better, but it's a shame we couldn't have that as well as Wispa rather than instead of.

In the interests of research (!) if I can find a large bar of CDM Bubbly I am prepared to eat it. But I still prefer the size and shape of the Wispa, it was perfect for dunking and just not the same with the chunks of the CDM bar. I agree we should have both Smurfy!
