Another plus for being in Toronto...I can get just about anything Cadbury's make. My favourite at the moment is Cadbury's Cashew and Coconut bars.
I'm trawling back through the pages...would there be some sort of index?

There a link to the index in the first post. You can also search the thread for CB's posts. I think she posted the recipe a couple of months ago.

I propose a mutiny if they ban creme eggs next year.

Any idea what is behind this?

Are the Jelly Babies threatening to turn in to UN soldiers and invade? Do Crunchy bars spread socialism?

Really??? My sister is arriving tomorrow with, amongst tons of other chocolate, many crunchies... damn. Chances are she will get stopped as she will be carrying a home made (and iced) christmas cake too! Anything else been banned recently?? Where can I find out?
So looking forward to my Cheese and Onion Walkers crisps!

I knew about Jelly Babies ans Wine Gums.
But Crunchies? Jeez. My local fresh n easy sells Cadbury's (the real stuff) Cost Plus only sells biscuits now - not the chocs. They still sell Nestle though.

Look, the FDA have a VERY IMPORTANT job! They are trying to keep us safe! After all, phen-phen had to kill how many people before they pulled it...???

Oh good grief! Bye bye diet! I totally must make this. Today! Shall post pics to my FB just to irritate my fellow Expat friends, but not post the link to recipe!

Also Jelly Babies must only be eaten by decapitation. That is the only way to eat them. No other way. If you don't eat them that way they you are doing it wrong!

I know Crunchy is a cadbury product, but are Jelly Babies as well?

My guess is Hershey has been enforcing their licensing rights in the US, I can't find much online, but Hershey has enforced their licensing right before and gone after importers and stores in the past.

Also the US bans the use of vegetable fat in chocolate which is a big reason why it tastes different here.
