Sorry chocolate isn't better, although Tim Tams are good!
It's a bit waxier(?) and not as creamy. Sorry it's hard to describe. On the plus side we eat less of it! I hadn't actually thought much about it until a friend sent choccie from the UK and the difference was unbelievable!

Ok, just my personal opinion of the chocolate - I think its less sweet than the British stuff - I find that has a more sugary taste, whereas Aussie stuff is very slightly more bitter. Much much nicer than the American which has no taste at all (except something remisinsent of soggy cardboard!).
Also I like the liquid centres & will kill to get hold of a bar of Cadbury Snack (lots of different centres in one bar) and Peppermint!
For the addicts out there, they also have Black Forest, Turkish Delight, Crunch, and the good old Fruit & Nut, and Dairy Milk.......

Don't worry, the Chocolates excellent. I think OZ they strive to stress out your sweet tooth.

I'm there in 3 weeks (coming from USA) and can't wait for those Tim Tams (Double Coat, yum :D)
Now you're talking!

Cadburys slightly different but mmmmmmmmmmm

If chocolate be the staff of your life, make your own - who knows, you might be good at it or at least more appreciative of what is:

The mission of the Church of God, Cocoa Office is to proclaim a living and saving message based on a resurrected Christ, in the spirit and power of Pentecost (Acts 2:1-4, 6,13-18);
to invade the territory of Satan and crush his power through the following: Centrality of God's Word, Evangelism, Ministerial development, Christian discipleship, lay ministry, Biblical stewardship, church growth, church planting, family enrichment, and servant leadership.

The Vision of the Church of God, Cocoa Office is to develop effective leadership designed to destroy the powers of darkness and to enhance and advance the Kingdom of God in the hearts and lives of all people through: prayer ( Mark 11:24), preaching of the Gospel (Matthew 28:18-20), teaching kingdom principals,

(Acts 8:5-7).

Lift your gaze, do not be profane in the sight of gOD.

Please expand - what makes are available? How is it better? Is there more variety? Am I obsessed?:D
I dont want to spoil your expectations but the Cadburys chocolate that I had was not very good - I am a chocaholic and I found that it had a different taste. I think they add something to stop it from melting.

Like Water For Chocolate, a Rubicon across which only the intrepid stray, a nibble of low cocoa butter Australian chocolate will, in a moment, resolve the imbibers subconcious ambivalence on matters Australian.

Seems the Church of Christ Cocoa Office is a mere tool of Hershey’s Global Imperialism.
