At least it's not called cdm with flaky bits...
Selling for 49p (extortionate but I bought two) in Martin's newsagents. Very nice. Not like the one in Flake moments though, just regular flake in plain chocolate. Does anyone know if they have stopped making the Flake moments box that has just the praline variety in it? Not seen it for ages. Flake praline bar not the same.

I'd like to try this when I see it.

Woothworths had these but had sold out. I can't wait to try one.

Will you be trying the new dark choc Kitkat oldspice? It has a higher cocoa content than even dark Flake.

No. I am not going to buy any more Nestle products. I've said it before but this time I mean it. I am even going off Cadbury's products. I had a Crunchie a few days ago and it was vile. I tried again the next day with same result.

I hope everyone follows the same path in all honesty, because then perhaps the better quality chocolate (Lindt, Green & Blacks etc) will come down in price as people stop eating Nestle, Cadbury's etc.

Tried this today, it's nice. Only 44% cocoa solids, but still definitely 'dark'. 7.5 out of 10.

Where did you find it Smurfy?

smurfboy · « **Reply #8 on:** October 05, 2006, 08:20:04 pm »

Woolies. 45p each.

Bought one today. Not bad but a little too "Bourneville" for me. I wouldn't buy these very often, the normal version is much nicer.

I obtained one of these today in Woolies (they had thousands) and I am about to eat it live, on the forum, to give you my verdict.

It seems thinner than traditional Flakes, it doesn't look that dark. I'm about to bite into it ....... well it's certainly flaky, it's quite sweet, it tastes a lot like Bournville.

I think next time I will have to chill it. I find chilling chocolate makes it taste less sweet.

All-in-all, although i like dark chocolate, I prefer the milk Flakes.

Me too. Although I got one for Mama Smurf and she said it was gorgeous.

What a lovely son you are.

She also said they used to make them years ago - is that true?

I don't remember them being made here before but I know they've been available abroad (Australia) for a while.
