Ah! Now these must have been a rival to Milk Tray Bar cos Dairy Box was made by Rowntrees and Milk Tray by cadburys.
Old but spicey!

On the back of the packet it has the flavours listed but I can't work them out!

I reckon this picture is from the 50s in which case it predates even me (well, I was born in 1957 actually).

Bar's like this seem so far away and exotic from what we have now.

The closest we have to a selection all in one bag/bar is revels! Its a sorry state.


There are a few bars in America/Australia that have mixed bars. For example the Cadbury Snack bar and the Turtle Bar.

Maybe we could strike a deal with Cadbury and get them to reintroduce Fry's Five Centres by telling them they could re-brand it as Dairy Milk with Five Centres - they seem to do that with everything else...

That's because Cadbury's happiness loves our money.

Salsa you are fantastic in many ways, but I may have to revise that opinion if you continue to berate my beloved Fry's!

These bars look similar to the Cadburys Snack bars from Australia. In a Cadburys Snack each chunk has a different filling, I think they have things like Caramel, Pineapple, Strawberry, Orange, Coconut and Turkish Delight. The Australians seem to have it good when it comes to chocolate *dreams of Cherry Ripes*

Fry's Five Centres was dark choc so I wonder  how it would taste with Dairy Milk instead. Some flavours are better with dark choc, don't you think?
