My local World Market has bucket loads of Double Deckers and big Buttons... personally, that is all I care about. Although I do love a good curly wurlie

I love them, I also like crumbling them on top of the cream on my pavlova. And an after eight in each slice as a decoration.
Think thats my fav type of Pavlova but a raspberry and cinnamon, and a lemon curd are very close runners up!

It's one of my favourites. The base is made of crispies and chocolate...topped with soft nougat...all covered in delicious Cadbury's chocolate.

Only came to them recently, OH brought back some from the UK and had one at Christmas and I enjoyed it, don't know what the old ones were like though.

The've been available for years...maybe 20 or so. They've only changed in taste recently...perhaps within the last 6 months.

I must be spoiled.. The wife went ot the British store in Wilmington for Valentines for me, got me a big box off Bert Bassetts Liquorice Allsorts, a curly wirly bar, 2 Mars Bars, 2 Dairy Milk bars and a Yorkie bar...... I'm in heaven and no I ain't sharing!

Although I am taking orders for the trip in March, will be the first time I've been back since I came over 4 years ago.

I nearly lost the curly wirly bar though when I gae her a bite... although I did limit her to 1 bite lol.. yeah I'm mean

That's what I call true love. Her buying you British sweets and you sharing them.

My hubby only gets the ones I don't like.

should have seen the look on my face when I thought I was't going to get it back, was like a kid that just had his toys taken away from him.
