5 scrumptious chocolate bars you can't get any more after one icon made a comeback
Milky Way Crispy Rolls returned to stores this year after being axed in 2022, but some other popular treats have never made it back. Chocolate fans were delighted earlier this year after a popular snack returned to shelves three years after being discontinued. Shoppers stocked up on Milky Way Crispy Rolls as they returned to UK supermarkets in February. After the tasty treat was axed in 2022, sparking outrage and even petitions to bring it back, foodies were taking no chances of losing out again and made sure they packed their cupboards with cylindrical wafer snacks. But some chocoholics have been left with a bittersweet taste in their mouths, as the return of the crispy rolls reminds them of certain other fan favourites that have been discontinued over the years and sadly never made it back to our stores. And much like the Milky Way wafer spin-off, many of these are quirky versions of more classic confections. That may be why they don't last forever, but it doesn't stop Brits moaning about it, The Mirror reports. Over the years, we have certainly lost some of the finest examples of offshoot chocolate bars. And while we can't list them all, below are five of the very best that are gone but not forgotten. Mars Delight While Milky Way's wafery treat has made its return, the same can't be said for the Mars Delight. The scrumptious confection contained the filling of a normal Mars bar, but it was spiralled around a crispy wafer and covered in chocolate. This lighter version of the classic bar was a proper fan favourite. One person, posting on X, formerly Twitter, said: 'Feel like pure s***, just want Mars Delight back.' Cadbury Snowflake Flakes are not only a tasty treat, they're also a challenge. It can sometimes feel less about eating and more about trying to stop it crumbling all over your clothes. But it's usually worth the risk for the delicious delicacy, and when Cadbury put a white-chocolate spin on it with the Snowflake - it definitely was. The popular bar even featured in a celebrity wedding. TV presenter Anthea Turner and businessman Grant Bovey posed with the chocolate bar for a photoshoot with OK! magazine on their big day in 2000. A Cadbury spokesperson admitted the company had supplied the chocolates to the happy couple but had not insisted that they were included in photos. The couple divorced in 2015. Taz Okay, okay. We know that a Taz bar is basically just a caramel Freddo and those are still available. But who wants a second version of the frog on their chocolate wrapper when they could get an iconic Looney Tunes character?! The spluttering, spinning, short-tempered cartoon character disappeared from the Cadbury chocolate and was replaced by a re-skinned Freddo. To us, they'll always be Taz bars. Wonka Bars Originally thought up to tie in with the 2005 film Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, there was a time around the Johnny Depp movie when you could buy real-life Wonka bars. They looked pretty much like the ones from the film with their bright pink colour and bold branding. They also came in a variety of different flavours. They were axed due to dwindling popularity and have since been replaced in the quirky chocolate bar stakes by Cadbury's outlandish Marvellous Creations bars, which have been a suitable substitute. But there was something pretty magical about feeling like you'd received a chocolate bar from Willy Wonka himself, even if it didn't come with a golden ticket. Terry's Pyramint Picture a Terry's Chocolate Orange with the taste of an After Eight, mixed with the aesthetic of The Crystal Maze. Confused? We're not surprised. The Pyramint might not even be classed as a chocolate bar. And it's probably not first in line for a return to stories, but its unique style gets it a place on this list ahead of other, more established favourites. According to food website Delish, the Pyramint was discontinued due to falling demand. Admittedly it's not hard to see why, but a place in snack folklore is the least it deserves.
