I like to dunk a Twirl in my hot chocolate. It doesn't work well with Ripple.

Flake Dipped was such a pointless invention - it's the same as a Twirl to all intents and purposes, and somehow not as nice.

Think flake appeals to more people?

Maybe - or maybe Cadbury thought they'd make some extra cash by launching something 'new' without doing any extra work...

Thats also a vaild point. Comparing a Twirl and a Flake Dipped...would you get more chocolate with the Twirl?

Funnily enough they had both Flake Dipped and Twirl as part of a five for £1 deal in Latifs yesterday, so I thought I'd try a Dipped to see if I was doing it a disservice. Then it occured to me I was paying the same price for one finger of flake as I was for two of Twirl.

I think the Flake Dipped is longer and a little thicker, but all in all I think there is more chocolate with the Twirl?

Also with a Twirl, I can eat one bar and save the other for later.


In fact yesterday, I saved it for a whole two minutes later
