It seems the Wispa is quite sadly missed. I never used to buy it very often but it's a shame the option has gone. Wispa Gold and Mint are different matters though - I could have happily lived on them  Aero Caramel is a very poor imitation of Wispa Gold

Really? Have you tried the new version? I might be tempted to give it a go. I still have an original in my fridge that will be eaten at a point of desperation.

It has been relaunched with the other Aero's except orange, as 'now more creamier'

Yes but they have also changed the internal layout of it.

Please tell me they don't really call it 'more creamier'

I am sure on the packet it has the new Aero logo, they have changed the
font. And then in the corner 'now more creamier'. I will have a look
when I go in the shop next time.

I'll go along with 'now more creamy' or even 'now creamier' but 'more creamier?'.  Still it wouldn't surprise me, the standard of English nowadays....(walks off into the sunset, wringing her hands and muttering darkly to herself).

The term "creamier" suggests an upward moderation from "creamy". Therefore, "more creamier"  is superfluous (??) and also bad English!

Old but spicey!

You can breath a sigh of relief goldencup. It says 'New creamier chocolate'
