We can get Hershey chocolate in our local shop. We keep a couple of bars handy for the grandchildren and threaten to make them eat it if they don't behave.
Hershey chocolate is made with milk powder which because of the process used lypolisis it then contains butyric acid which is literally what the taste of vomit is when you throw up.
20:19 Joel just dissed Freddo for being the dumbest looking chocolate lol Freddo is actually the most useful chocolate in the box. It lets us know how the economy is doing. It can even tell you the age of someone.

Roald Dahl was at a public school near the Cadbury factory, they would bring new chocolate bars into his school to test them, so you are right Joel, Cadbury was the inspiration for the Chocolate factory.
Copied from BBC page (because I remember reading that he went to Repton): At the age of 13, Dahl moved on to Repton School in Derbyshire. So, yes, he did look forward to Cadbury's sending their chocolates up to the school. I think that the purple colour associated with Wonka and the font used in the films shows Dahl was influenced by the local chocolate factory.
I left London 28 years ago, when my son was 2, for Barcelona. Spanish chocolate is like cooking chocolate, strong and bitter. On a trip home, I took my then teenage son into a newsagents and bought him some English chocolate. It was love at first bite. He's 30 now and on a recent business trip to London, he bought me a huge tin of Cadbury chocolate ( plus one for himself.) I destroyed it in 2 days. You just can't beat our chocolate.

My mum once worked in a cadburys factory. On the first day they were invited to eat whatever they wanted until they felt so sick they didn’t go near it. Best part was on a Friday when she was allowed to take misshapen bars home for free. Heaven for us kids.
Cadburys was bought up by an American company a few years ago. They changed the recipe so that it was more like your chocolate. Most brits would say the chocolate is not as good as it used to be
The first ingredient in UK chocolate is milk and in the US it’s sugar. Also British chocolate has higher fat content and no preservatives unlike American chocolate. Milk from different cows change the taste
@@juliecarne7706 no, we now have what is basically the U.S. recipe. I believe that Cadbury used real milk and cocoa beans. In U.S. they use milk substitute and various additives. Cadbury was one of the biggest losses of a generation

Hi Joel, Double Decker does not contain Marshmallow. It’s Crispy, cocoa rice pops layered with soft, chewy nougat. Two tastes and two textures, all in one chocolate bar.

Galaxy is the UK version of the US chocolate called Dove. Dove is the best milk chocolate produced in the US for sure, but it doesn't better Cadbury's. Also, I'm pretty certain that the US Dive recipe differs slightly from the UK Galaxy recipe.
'Flake' was created by accident, when one of the Cadbury workers, noticed chocolate shavings, coming out of the machines that were making the chocolate bars, and tried compressing the shavings together, thus creating a new chocolate bar!!!

You must understand that with many UK chocolate products, the chocolate itself, be it Cadbury or Galaxy, is basically a given, it's the TEXTURE that they're offering you... flake, aero and wispa are all about how they feel to eat, just like the thin edges on a chocolate orange segment, it's all about mouth-feel.
You just have to understand that with us brits its never just about chocolate... its also a bout texture as well as flavour, we love the different textures
Gotta love Arturo! He's a real chocolate lover, and I know one when I see one as a chocoholic! I knew he was, the moment he scooped up the last bits of Flake with his finger, even though there was tons more chocolate to come in the box! Respect Arturo! But Arturo, the KitKat IS British, first made by Rowntrees before being hijacked by Nestle!
They should try creme eggs and the caramel egg they like caramel if they all had an caramel Cadbury egg each it would change their life. Reckon mint aero would be worth trying they probably not had anything like that. Kipling's bakewells aswell, Jaffa cakes, Hob nobs, kit kat chunky, Cadbury mini rolls, galaxy mini cake bars, munchies, minstrels, kinder Buenos, gold bar, bounty, galaxy caramel, diam bar, milky way, Mars bar
Back in the 1970s my mum was the 1st person to try a Curly Wirly at the Cadbury factory. My Grandad was the Local MP (Memeber of Parliment) for the area of Birmingham at the time so my mum aunt and uncle were allowed to have a special visit to the factory and got to taste the choclates and sweets.
@@Apple1519fruit and nut was my late mother’s favourite. My dad would always buy about 5 big bars every Christmas and wrap them up for her. She knew I wouldn’t steal it as I disliked it.
Cadbury doesn't have a monopoly in the UK, it has about a third of the market. Though the brands have been bought up by big corporations, there are historic brands whose name and products survive. Fry's was based in Bristol and made the first chocolate bar that wasn't just chocolate, the Fry's Creme Bar and Fry's Turkish Delight. Terry's famous for its Orange and Rowntree's were both based in York. Rowntree's gave us Kit Kat (back in 1935 it is a British product originally), Smarties, Rolo, and the Lion Bar. The other big one was Mars, which ran as a seperate company from the US original after a family falling out led to one brother setting up in Slough. For many years the Mars Bar, (not available in US was the biggest selling bar of all)
Mars (UK) merged with Mars USA a few years ago, sadly, and they are now a single, American based, company once more. Always thought that a bit of a shame.
It's also called cinder toffee. It's not an actual honeycomb from a beehive (as you know), but which is what the lads were thinking because they hadn't heard of it before.
True. Anyone that says hersheys etc is better than Cadburys (or any British chocolate for that matter) is lying and completely biased, not wanting to admit their countries chocolate sucks! 😂
I noticed the double decker was 'leaking". It had obviously gone very soft so that's why you thought it was a layer of marshmallow rather than nougat with a firmer consistency. I always keep chocolate in the fridge. It stops it melting in warm weather and keeps the chocolate firm. You can also appreciate the textures of the different bars (Wispa, flake, Twirl, etc) much more when the chocolate has not become soft.
I think it might have something to do with shipped on an aeroplane. I'm not sure but the air bubbles in the nougat have expanded to the air pressure. That's why it came apart i think.
Fry's, Cadbury, and Rowntree's. first started producing chocolate between1750s to 1830. Roald Dahl was inspired by British chocolate sorry Hersey, blame Hollywood if you feel misled!. Joel next time you come to England visit Cadbury world , you might even be sick of sampling chocolate by the time the tour is over.
Biggest UK rival to Cadbury is Rowntree who made many like Aero, Quality Street and Kit Kat which is British, Nestle bought the company that made them, Rowntree. Rowntree still exists and trades as that name but it’s synonymous with “Nestle UK”.
Cadbury drinking hot chocolate using milk is better than the instant water version - if you’re thinking of trying them. My opinion which may not be agreed by others 😊
Carbury Hazelnut is not hazelnut chocolate, it's chocolate with a chunk of hazelnut in each bite whereas the nut in hazelnut chocolate is crushed and mixed through the chocolate
In South Africa Flakes sell out during Christmas cos they often top desserts and trifles. Second only to Peppermint Crisp, which I don't think the UK has.
As an Englishman born and bred it’s so funny that these sweets I’ve eaten all my life and thought nothing of your reviewing and eating like it’s fine dining. 😅
A fun fact about flake is that it's dehydrated, so it has no water content, meaning you can put it on a very hot pan or in a microwave and it will not melt. It does melt in your mouth and even on your hands because you are reintroducing moisture from your hand and mouth to the flake.
When you guys visit the UK, you should visit Bournville, near Birmingham, it is where Cadbury’s products are made in the UK, which is a village that was built for their own workforce, that is now part of England’s National Trust, The Factory is also a Museum to the Original Cadbury’s Chocolate, where visitors can take a tour around the factory & see how real chocolate is made, 🇬🇧🍫🇬🇧
The Bournville village does not belong to the national trust, it belongs to the Bournville Village Trust, BVT who i work for and it isn't near Birmingham it is in Birmingham.
Cadburys far surpasses American chocolate quality wise imo of course it’s what you’re used to, a slab used to contain a glass and a half of milk giving that smooth creamy texture but since they changed the recipe through takeover it’s never been the same to me. Still a guilty pleasure though ❤
I once went to a Halloween party in Berlin, very kindly hosted by Americans. At the end, my children were given a goodie bag each. These bags were full of American sweets. Most of the sweets,mainly chocolates, were not eaten . My children didn't like them , and they weren't being biased as they were only young. We had to throw them out eventually. It's just what your pallette is used to.❤
Hi Joel, Cadbury`s Buttons, Fudge bar, Curly Wurly & Freddo bar, all started out as pocket money chocolate for school kids. Mars U.K. is Cadbury`s biggest rival in the U.K., Twix, Milky Way, Mars Bar, Ripple bar, Galaxy Chocolate, Marathon (now Snickers), Bounty bar, Bags of Revels, Maltesers, Peanut/Toffee/Chocolate Treats (now M&M`s). Rowntree Macintosh chocolate products until 1988 when bought out by Nestle, where KitKat, Aero, Rolo, Toffee Crisp, Caramac bars, Munchies in a pack & Smarties in a tube.
Having visited most of the US over the last 31 years, American chocolate is something I am not partial to. We are spoiled for choice in the UK, and there are other brands as well as Cadbury.. Please try other chocolate brands and then move onto our biscuits, cakes and traditional puddings. I recommend a strict fitness regime if you decided to do this lol.
Double Decker isn't marshmallow, it's a very soft type of nougat(proper nougat is break your teeth hard until you've knawed on it for half an hour and warmed it up in your hands a bit).
Flake is actually just dairy milk chocolate that is passed through a special machine that folds the chocolate in layers that are cooled rapidly... The result is a larger surface area of chocolate that hits your tongue... and it melts faster in your mouth meaning you get a more intense hit of flavour more quickly.
22:25 I wanted to mention this earlier but Roald Dahl (author of ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ was an official taster for Cadbury’s before he was a writer.
Hi JPS to coin the Cadbury advert in the UK. "Everyone's a fruit and nut case!" Cadbury Vs Hershey. Cadbury every time Hershey tastes very chemically Cadbury is a lot creamier and natural Nestle was actually a British and Swiss chocolate company before the USA bought it out
Double Decker - it's nougat in those, not marshmallow. They've always been one of my favourites...😋 Incidentally...here's me sat looking at a box of Cadbury's Milk Tray...lol. Maybe you should try those too. Or Cadbury's Roses...or even Cadbury's Heroes which are the miniature versions of some of those chocolate bars you've just tried. You may think you've tried all the Cadbury's chocolate but there's still plenty to go at - LOL! 😀
Interesting fact. The guy that wrote Willy Wonka ( Roald Dahl) loved chocolate so much, he actually invented the flake bar the lads tried earlier. He had the idea of folding hot chocolate then cooling it into them shapes. He took the idea to Cadburys and they produced it for him
The original Flake product was first developed in 1920 and was discovered by chance by Ralph Thompson, an employee of Cadbury's at the Bournville factory who noticed thin streams of excess chocolate falling from moulds cooled into flaky ripples.
There are so many British chocolate manufacturers, our dairy, confectionary and bakeries are all a delight. My Mum and Dad lived in South Carolina and I loved the new (for me) foods I tried there except for grits and collard greens. Some of my favourite chocolate bars in my country are Turkish Delight, Toffee Crisp, Topic and Bounty.
@@deniseroney Both Topic and Bounty are still on sale. Some chocolates bars are not as widely stocked - just certain shops carry them but Bounty is very much available.
Joel. I know Birmingham has little to offer,especially after yor last visit, but maybe hop off bathe train before Birmingham and have a quick nose around Bournville, the town purposely built by George Cadbury for his workers, still HQ of Cadbury, if it peaks any interest
Have you heard Joel complain that "After Eights" taste like 'toothpaste' ?!! Their American taste buds are weird !! 😮 I love "After Eights" (and chocolate liqueurs are not pronounced lickoors !!) ☹️
Memo to Arturo -you need to turn your v sign the other way round - that gesture you made means something quite different to "peace" over this side of the pond 🤣✌
The original boost in the 80's was coconut flavour, they've also had peanut flavour and energy editions boost glucose and boost gaurana.. gaurana was 👌🏼
When you try the digestives, make sure you have a cup of tea with it to dunk them in, trust me. And watch a video on how to make a proper british cuppa before! And for the beans on toast make sure the toast is toasted, not too soggy, get heinz or branston beans, and if you can try to get some HP sauce to go with it, and some white pepper 👌
In my opinion you don't put the beans on the toast itself as it makes it too soggy. You put them on a mouthful at a time. Also baked beans are best with grated cheddar cheese melted in. Cheesy beans are so good! I just buy shop brands as the heinz ones taste wrong to me.
I'm watching you sample our chocolates whilst devouring a Terry's chocolate orange 😋you should try Thornton's chocolates. The only chocolate that beats the UKs is Belgium chocs
There used to be the original boost bar in an orange wrapper, coconut, then the peanut boost in brown wrapper, and the one you guys have is the biscuit boost. The peanut one was the best for sure🏴
I live right next to Cadbury in Bournville to the village , They only make Cadbury Buttons and a few other sweets , Although it is the first Cadbury factory and at the time built the houses here for the workers . Now it is basically a tested chocolate in the science of chocolate testing all flavours . Basically a museum ,The area dating back to the time of 1870 and still has its fields and a rare house built right next door .
Great video. Couple of great Cadbury bars you didn't get: Star Bar (which is full of peanut butter and caramel) and a Picnic Bar - if you see either of those, I'd pick them up to try as they are lush
Double Decker like the bus ... OR Double Decker because there are two layers, crispy cereal (bottem deck) & not marshmellow but nougat (top deck) covered in milk chocolate. Sometimes things are as simple as they sound ;)
I went on a tour of Cadbury's factory when I was younger and it felt like being in Willy Wonkers Chocolate factory. Trying the cream eggs fresh off the line and still warm, they were amazing!! You definitely need to try cream eggs next time.
My favourite has always been a fudge, “ a finger of fudge is just enough to keep you satisfied”. If I’m going to eat chocolate I prefer Belgian chocolate but a fudge bar reminds me of my childhood and it has always been the one for me.😊
A finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat, A finger of fudge is just enough until its time to eat... It's full of Cadbury goodness, and very small and neat... A finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat.

In case you're doing more of these tasting video's: you could start by taking pictures of all the things (packaged) you are going to taste (before taping the tasting). That way you can paste those pictures into the video afterwards, so we can see clearly what it is that you are tasting.
Greetings gentlemen. Well done for appreciating our chocolate goodies. Enjoy them all, they're all British staples. I've nearly OD'd on all those bars. You are all truly honorary British.
I can remember some of the vintage TV ads for these chocolates. The Double Decker was advertised by this actor, Willie Rushton, unable to decide whether it was smooth or crunchy. The Flake song was like, “Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate- tastes like chocolate never tasted before!” and featured a sultry model performing something unmentionable on the Flake. The singer Cilla Black advertised the “glass and a half of milk” in Cadbury’s Dairy Milk. And Miriam Margoyles was the voice of the Cadbury’s Caramel in the 70s/80s.
Can’t wait for when your friends try beans on toast, I reckon that’ll be a hilarious reaction! Joel, I think you should qualify for automatic British citizenship now that you like our chocolate so much❤😂
Except Cadburys isn't really "real" chocolate - none of the supermarket brands are. Buy expensive chocolate with just 4 ingredients and you'll be getting the real deal and it puts Cadbury to shame.
@@nealgrimes4382 I actually really like Cadburys Bournville, but trust me, the difference between Cadburys and handmade chocolate is like the difference between instant coffe granules and freshly ground coffee beans.
Cadburys is based in Bournville Birmingham, they are the best confectioner in the UK, we also have Mars based here. We have a ice cream cone with a half flake we call it a 99. Cadburys use a lot of milk in their chocolate hence the smoother taste. There is a Cadbury where you go on a tour and get lots of free chocolate the building looks a bit like Willy Wonkas factory.
British chocolate defo the best 😋Not surprised some of it started to taste the same as none of you were cleansing your pallet before trying the next one 😂
I'm from scotland and I know our chocolate is much tastier than a lot of other chocliatiers,but there is one that might top Cadbury chocolate and that would be thorntons chocolate and they have countless flavours and textures to try,so why don't yous try thorntons chocolates and see what these guys think after the taste test.👍👍
Thumbs up for Thorntons' fudge & toffee too. Unfortunately many of the local THORNTON shops have closed. Bought a box of Thorntons' Continental chocolates from a local Co-op. Not so fresh & most of my favourites were not in the box. Sigh. Who said that there was no such thing as the Good Old Days?

It's because it made from condensed milk and chocolate flavouring
Wouldn’t even class Hershey as a chocolate, doesn’t even contain the legal amount to be classed as chocolate 🤣😂

Cadbury doesn't have a monopoly in the UK, it has about a third of the market. Though the brands have been bought up by big corporations, there are historic brands whose name and products survive. Fry's was based in Bristol and made the first chocolate bar that wasn't just chocolate, the Fry's Creme Bar and Fry's Turkish Delight. Terry's famous for its Orange and Rowntree's were both based in York. Rowntree's gave us Kit Kat (back in 1935 it is a British product originally), Smarties, Rolo, and the Lion Bar. The other big one was Mars, which ran as a seperate company from the US original after a family falling out led to one brother setting up in Slough. For many years the Mars Bar, (not available in US was the biggest selling bar of all)
I remember driving through Slough when I was younger with my parents and smelling Mars chocolate in the air. 😊
Nah cmon surely the
% of all chocolate bars would surely be about 70% Cadbury’s
Mars (UK) merged with Mars USA a few years ago, sadly, and they are now a single, American based, company once more. Always thought that a bit of a shame.
I am 73 & remember that railway stations used to have dispensing machines for Frys' Five Boys chocolate bars
i went to the chocolate factory museum in York
Terry's chocolate orange - every birthday since I was ~10. Got to be up there with the best.
Crunchies do have honeycomb in it... its a bar of honeycomb, with a thin layer of Cadbury milk chocolate around it 😋
It's also called cinder toffee. It's not an actual honeycomb from a beehive (as you know), but which is what the lads were thinking because they hadn't heard of it before.
Your friends are just bias to American chocolate because they dare not say it sucks!! 😂😂
True. Anyone that says hersheys etc is better than Cadburys (or any British chocolate for that matter) is lying and completely biased, not wanting to admit their countries chocolate sucks! 😂
I noticed the double decker was 'leaking". It had obviously gone very soft so that's why you thought it was a layer of marshmallow rather than nougat with a firmer consistency. I always keep chocolate in the fridge. It stops it melting in warm weather and keeps the chocolate firm. You can also appreciate the textures of the different bars (Wispa, flake, Twirl, etc) much more when the chocolate has not become soft.
I think it might have something to do with shipped on an aeroplane. I'm not sure but the air bubbles in the nougat have expanded to the air pressure. That's why it came apart i think.
Fry's, Cadbury, and Rowntree's. first started producing chocolate between1750s to 1830. Roald Dahl was inspired by British chocolate sorry Hersey, blame Hollywood if you feel misled!. Joel next time you come to England visit Cadbury world , you might even be sick of sampling chocolate by the time the tour is over.
I loved my Cadbury tour, freebies and never knew, chilli in Mexican cocoa?
The Fry, Cadbury and Rowntree families were all Quakers.
Biggest UK rival to Cadbury is Rowntree who made many like Aero, Quality Street and Kit Kat which is British, Nestle bought the company that made them, Rowntree. Rowntree still exists and trades as that name but it’s synonymous with “Nestle UK”.
In the U.K. when we buy an ice-cream cone it sometimes comes with a Cadbury flake in it. So good!
Cadbury drinking hot chocolate using milk is better than the instant water version - if you’re thinking of trying them. My opinion which may not be agreed by others 😊
Bung in some Cadbury buttons as well let me melt😊
I tried some a few weeks back & thought the taste was awful.
100%.
You gotta do it with condensed milk, mix up a little with the choc powder into a paste then top up with the water.
Yh but you still have to add milk to both
Hazelnut chocolate is indeed a very huge thing in Europe
It's the same with biscoff in the uk just over 20 years ago no one had heard of it. Look at it now, but it's lovely with a cup of coffee.
@@louisesawyer1 And biscoff is Belgian too :D
Carbury Hazelnut is not hazelnut chocolate, it's chocolate with a chunk of hazelnut in each bite whereas the nut in hazelnut chocolate is crushed and mixed through the chocolate
Generally with the flake, you can buy them to eat on their own but most often they are used in ice cream cones
In South Africa Flakes sell out during Christmas cos they often top desserts and trifles. Second only to Peppermint Crisp, which I don't think the UK has.
"Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate, tastes like chocolate never tasted before" ☺️❤🖖
Most often?! Not really.
Is there a Flake bar that is coated with chocolate still being made?
@@colinp2238
I would call a 'Flake' bar that's covered in chocolate, a 'Twirl' ! Apparently they're still available here in the UK. 😊❤️🖖
As an Englishman born and bred it’s so funny that these sweets I’ve eaten all my life and thought nothing of your reviewing and eating like it’s fine dining. 😅
This is so true. I love their respect & appreciation, not just for our chocs but for us as a whole.
A fun fact about flake is that it's dehydrated, so it has no water content, meaning you can put it on a very hot pan or in a microwave and it will not melt. It does melt in your mouth and even on your hands because you are reintroducing moisture from your hand and mouth to the flake.
When you guys visit the UK, you should visit Bournville, near Birmingham, it is where Cadbury’s products are made in the UK, which is a village that was built for their own workforce, that is now part of England’s National Trust,
The Factory is also a Museum to the Original Cadbury’s Chocolate, where visitors can take a tour around the factory & see how real chocolate is made,
🇬🇧🍫🇬🇧
The Bournville village does not belong to the national trust, it belongs to the Bournville Village Trust, BVT who i work for and it isn't near Birmingham it is in Birmingham.
@@naffsage1065 ,
And Bournville Village Trust is a housing association in Birmingham, England,
🇬🇧😎👍🏼
It's by Boirnville Train Station where is live
Cadburys far surpasses American chocolate quality wise imo of course it’s what you’re used to, a slab used to contain a glass and a half of milk giving that smooth creamy texture but since they changed the recipe through takeover it’s never been the same to me. Still a guilty pleasure though ❤
I once went to a Halloween party in Berlin, very kindly hosted by Americans. At the end, my children were given a goodie bag each. These bags were full of American sweets. Most of the sweets,mainly chocolates, were not eaten . My children didn't like them , and they weren't being biased as they were only young. We had to throw them out eventually.
It's just what your pallette is used to.❤
The best way to have Cadbury chocolate is after its been in the fridge
Especially the ones with caramel inside
Love from England ❤❤
I am a Brit and love your videos... makes me smile every time.
Hi Joel, Cadbury`s Buttons, Fudge bar, Curly Wurly & Freddo bar, all started out as pocket money chocolate for school kids. Mars U.K. is Cadbury`s biggest rival in the U.K., Twix, Milky Way, Mars Bar, Ripple bar, Galaxy Chocolate, Marathon (now Snickers), Bounty bar, Bags of Revels, Maltesers, Peanut/Toffee/Chocolate Treats (now M&M`s).
Rowntree Macintosh chocolate products until 1988 when bought out by Nestle, where KitKat, Aero, Rolo, Toffee Crisp, Caramac bars, Munchies in a pack & Smarties in a tube.
Having visited most of the US over the last 31 years, American chocolate is something I am not partial to. We are spoiled for choice in the UK, and there are other brands as well as Cadbury.. Please try other chocolate brands and then move onto our biscuits, cakes and traditional puddings. I recommend a strict fitness regime if you decided to do this lol.
Double Decker isn't marshmallow, it's a very soft type of nougat(proper nougat is break your teeth hard until you've knawed on it for half an hour and warmed it up in your hands a bit).
Dude you are literally making me want to go to the shop for some choccy. Probably one of the best things about the UK is our sweet shops.
Flake is actually just dairy milk chocolate that is passed through a special machine that folds the chocolate in layers that are cooled rapidly... The result is a larger surface area of chocolate that hits your tongue... and it melts faster in your mouth meaning you get a more intense hit of flavour more quickly.
22:25 I wanted to mention this earlier but Roald Dahl (author of ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ was an official taster for Cadbury’s before he was a writer.
Hi JPS to coin the Cadbury advert in the UK. "Everyone's a fruit and nut case!"
Cadbury Vs Hershey. Cadbury every time Hershey tastes very chemically Cadbury is a lot creamier and natural
Nestle was actually a British and Swiss chocolate company before the USA bought it out
Double Decker - it's nougat in those, not marshmallow. They've always been one of my favourites...😋
Incidentally...here's me sat looking at a box of Cadbury's Milk Tray...lol. Maybe you should try those too. Or Cadbury's Roses...or even Cadbury's Heroes which are the miniature versions of some of those chocolate bars you've just tried. You may think you've tried all the Cadbury's chocolate but there's still plenty to go at - LOL! 😀
Did you open the box of chocs then!!??
Interesting fact. The guy that wrote Willy Wonka ( Roald Dahl) loved chocolate so much, he actually invented the flake bar the lads tried earlier. He had the idea of folding hot chocolate then cooling it into them shapes. He took the idea to Cadburys and they produced it for him
Never thought it would be comments of TH-cam I’d be learning from 😂
Wow! I never knew that
The original Flake product was first developed in 1920 and was discovered by chance by Ralph Thompson, an employee of Cadbury's at the Bournville factory who noticed thin streams of excess chocolate falling from moulds cooled into flaky ripples.
Stop chatting waffle Neil
@@y0Popee You know better ?
There are so many British chocolate manufacturers, our dairy, confectionary and bakeries are all a delight. My Mum and Dad lived in South Carolina and I loved the new (for me) foods I tried there except for grits and collard greens. Some of my favourite chocolate bars in my country are Turkish Delight, Toffee Crisp, Topic and Bounty.
They don't make Topic anymore, am not sure if Bounty is on the 'ditch list' too!?
@@deniseroney Both Topic and Bounty are still on sale. Some chocolates bars are not as widely stocked - just certain shops carry them but Bounty is very much available.
Joel. I know Birmingham has little to offer,especially after yor last visit, but maybe hop off bathe train before Birmingham and have a quick nose around Bournville, the town purposely built by George Cadbury for his workers, still HQ of Cadbury, if it peaks any interest
How is it possible to not like orange chocolate?
Fruit and chocolate should never go together.
@@phoenix-xu9xj I agree with that statement
@@phoenix-xu9xjwhat about strawberry cream filled chocolate? 👀
Non-british is the key!!
Have you heard Joel complain that
"After Eights" taste like 'toothpaste' ?!!
Their American taste buds are weird !! 😮 I love "After Eights" (and chocolate liqueurs are not pronounced lickoors !!) ☹️
The whole video I was just waiting for the classic American line “I’m starting to feel sick” 😂 because American food rarely has real sugar 😅
love this channel, big love from a UK fan ❤🇬🇧🙌
Arturo! Man you gotta have a Terry's chicolate orange my guy, you slam it on a hard surface to separate the chocolate segments, you'll love it. ❤️🇬🇧👍
Joël, Before Ronald Dahl wrote « Charlie and the Chocolate Factory », he was a candy tester for, you guessed it, Cadbury.
Try some with tea. Or eat some ready salted crisps, then eat some chocolate, delicious. Perfect combination 😀
Try with cheese and onion crisps!
Four bar KitKat in a ham sandwich 😁👍🇬🇧
The chocolate covering is the same in every bar! The only differences are the various textures, shapes and nuts raisins etc.
I like orange chocolate, but it does get sickly pretty quick - a lot quicker than just plain chocolate.
Interestingly Flake came about when Cadburys decided to take all the left over bits of chocolate and stick them together and the Flake was born.
Memo to Arturo -you need to turn your v sign the other way round - that gesture you made means something quite different to "peace" over this side of the pond 🤣✌
Joel's univ. room-mate Mac made the same mistake ! 😂
😂
I have to let you know that KitKat is a British chocolate, it was originally made by a company called roundtree then I believe Nestlé bought them out.
KitKat in various countries is a chocolate-covered wafer bar confection created by Rowntree's of York, United Kingdom Now made by Nestlé
The original boost in the 80's was coconut flavour, they've also had peanut flavour and energy editions boost glucose and boost gaurana.. gaurana was 👌🏼
i like this channel bc they are way more respectful of the british culture and shit compaired to some
When you try the digestives, make sure you have a cup of tea with it to dunk them in, trust me. And watch a video on how to make a proper british cuppa before!
And for the beans on toast make sure the toast is toasted, not too soggy, get heinz or branston beans, and if you can try to get some HP sauce to go with it, and some white pepper 👌
In my opinion you don't put the beans on the toast itself as it makes it too soggy. You put them on a mouthful at a time. Also baked beans are best with grated cheddar cheese melted in. Cheesy beans are so good! I just buy shop brands as the heinz ones taste wrong to me.
Stefan saying “Interesting” really spoke volumes. We Stan a person with a discerning palate.
Great & honest reaction lads! You are a good little group, look forward to watching more.
I'm watching you sample our chocolates whilst devouring a Terry's chocolate orange 😋you should try Thornton's chocolates. The only chocolate that beats the UKs is Belgium chocs
There used to be the original boost bar in an orange wrapper, coconut, then the peanut boost in brown wrapper, and the one you guys have is the biscuit boost. The peanut one was the best for sure🏴
I live right next to Cadbury in Bournville to the village , They only make Cadbury Buttons and a few other sweets , Although it is the first Cadbury factory and at the time built the houses here for the workers .
Now it is basically a tested chocolate in the science of chocolate testing all flavours .
Basically a museum ,The area dating back to the time of 1870 and still has its fields and a rare house built right next door .
Great video. Couple of great Cadbury bars you didn't get: Star Bar (which is full of peanut butter and caramel) and a Picnic Bar - if you see either of those, I'd pick them up to try as they are lush
Star Bar is the ABSOLUTE best Cadburys bar. My favourite 😍 😊
100% agree :)
Those are my two favourites! I like Lion bars also.
Star bar is my favourite too! Full of gooey yummyness.
Double Decker like the bus ... OR Double Decker because there are two layers, crispy cereal (bottem deck) & not marshmellow but nougat (top deck) covered in milk chocolate. Sometimes things are as simple as they sound ;)
I went on a tour of Cadbury's factory when I was younger and it felt like being in Willy Wonkers Chocolate factory. Trying the cream eggs fresh off the line and still warm, they were amazing!! You definitely need to try cream eggs next time.
My favourite has always been a fudge, “ a finger of fudge is just enough to keep you satisfied”. If I’m going to eat chocolate I prefer Belgian chocolate but a fudge bar reminds me of my childhood and it has always been the one for me.😊
A finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat.
@@incognito96 wow someone who remembers the fudge bar 😊
A finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat, A finger of fudge is just enough until its time to eat... It's full of Cadbury goodness, and very small and neat... A finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat.
@@leehorrocks5253 Goodness I’m impressed. I do remember the advert, I was in my late teens, seem to remember a little kid in school uniform at the end pulling a face, can’t remember why, think his mate had one and he didn’t or some such thing. But anyway still eat them though I swear blind the flipping things are smaller these days, and I’m bloody positive that curly wurly's are half the length they used to be. 😡😂😂

"the terrible trio" an amazing team joel an amazing show and looking forward to the others with them... a refreshing approach... thanks boys
In case you're doing more of these tasting video's: you could start by taking pictures of all the things (packaged) you are going to taste (before taping the tasting). That way you can paste those pictures into the video afterwards, so we can see clearly what it is that you are tasting.
Nah, they tell us what they are tasting.
You guys gel well together ,glad you like british chocolate 🍫
Freddo is an Australian invention & there are quite a few different fillings down here. Boost was a New Zealand creation.
Greetings gentlemen. Well done for appreciating our chocolate goodies. Enjoy them all, they're all British staples. I've nearly OD'd on all those bars.
You are all truly honorary British.
I can remember some of the vintage TV ads for these chocolates. The Double Decker was advertised by this actor, Willie Rushton, unable to decide whether it was smooth or crunchy. The Flake song was like, “Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate- tastes like chocolate never tasted before!” and featured a sultry model performing something unmentionable on the Flake. The singer Cilla Black advertised the “glass and a half of milk” in Cadbury’s Dairy Milk. And Miriam Margoyles was the voice of the Cadbury’s Caramel in the 70s/80s.
Can’t wait for when your friends try beans on toast, I reckon that’ll be a hilarious reaction! Joel, I think you should qualify for automatic British citizenship now that you like our chocolate so much❤😂
Questions!? Do you butter the toast or not? Beans hot or cold on the toast?
@@deniseroneybutter the toast, hot beans, real nice with cheddar cheese on top
Only great friends would share a bar of chocolate like that :)
There’s also cadburys mystery bars where u have to guess the mysterious flavour and you do not get the answer 🤫
You dont chew chocolate...you savour it. Then you get the real flavour.
Except Cadburys isn't really "real" chocolate - none of the supermarket brands are. Buy expensive chocolate with just 4 ingredients and you'll be getting the real deal and it puts Cadbury to shame.
@@londonbobby I prefer dark chocolate, but i think cadburys make pretty good milk chocolate and i can't afford expensive chocolate.
@@nealgrimes4382 I actually really like Cadburys Bournville, but trust me, the difference between Cadburys and handmade chocolate is like the difference between instant coffe granules and freshly ground coffee beans.
@@londonbobbyYes we know. 🙄
Cadburys is not a posh chocolate, it's cheap..
@@sutty85 Nothing wrong with that, I eat it too. Just know that better chocolate is out there.
A whispa the chocolate is like bubbles inside.
Cadburys is based in Bournville Birmingham, they are the best confectioner in the UK, we also have Mars based here. We have a ice cream cone with a half flake we call it a 99. Cadburys use a lot of milk in their chocolate hence the smoother taste. There is a Cadbury where you go on a tour and get lots of free chocolate the building looks a bit like Willy Wonkas factory.
Our 1 Yr old grandson called Cadburys, purple choc choc, he wouldn't have any other....😊
British chocolate defo the best 😋Not surprised some of it started to taste the same as none of you were cleansing your pallet before trying the next one 😂
Hey JP. Arturo really needs to know what his two finger greeting means in the UK... 😂
yes Roald Dahl was inspired by Cadbury chocolate when he wrote Charlie and the Chocolate factory
Dairy milk bar ... you all just chewed it in second's.. sucking it is better as you can taste the flavour better when it melts in your mouth
I'm from scotland and I know our chocolate is much tastier than a lot of other chocliatiers,but there is one that might top Cadbury chocolate and that would be thorntons chocolate and they have countless flavours and textures to try,so why don't yous try thorntons chocolates and see what these guys think after the taste test.👍👍
Thumbs up for Thorntons' fudge & toffee too. Unfortunately many of the local THORNTON shops have closed. Bought a box of Thorntons' Continental chocolates from a local Co-op. Not so fresh & most of my favourites were not in the box. Sigh. Who said that there was no such thing as the Good Old Days?
Thorntons is next level !
True.@@MISSYGful
You tried Toffee Apple Caramel Shortcake Bites ?
Not yet but I am still breathing!@@Taylor23890
Love seeing people enjoying British chocolate, we get so much flack for our food but our chocolate is fire 🎉
