Does anyone know what happened to Marabou Delight?


I remember this choclate over 12 years ago, and I just loved it.


If anyone has info on this, it will be greatly appreciated.

Hi  photen, yes I too remember this great bar and have missed it over the years. You say you remember this bar from about 12 years ago,but I'm sure I can recall it from much further back,maybe 1983 or so.All I know is that it had a lovely creamy almost ice-cream taste to it which was shaped like a slightly fatter dime bar with a pink centre to it.God knows what that stuff was made out of,but it was very mousse like in texture and made a good combination with the smooth chocolate coating.


The internet might be a great way to find info in general,but searching for any details on this fine chocolate bar is like looking for rocking horse droppings

I just did a Google search for rocking horse droppings (ok I'm bored).  It came up with 887 hits!

Yes, I did. But I bet a nursery school would have to do a risk assessment before they let any kids on it nowadays.

I am sure I read somewhere that there's a law now to the height a rocking horse can be.

Don't blame HSE. Blame "had a fall? Give us a call!"

When I was off work the other day I had the misfortune to turn on daytime tv.  I couldn't believe how many of these ads there were.

Same here. I was off Valentines day and it seems every other advert was 'Hurt yourself at work? Make a claim!'

You are right Paulham. I do not blame the HSE because at one time THEY would have been chasing errant employers and companies whose Health & Safety procedures were less than satisfactory. Now, thanks to THATCHER, the onus is on the victim to prove that they have been injured.
