HAVE YOUR SAY: Chocolate
A favourite chocolate bar is back by popular demand.
Wispa Gold went back into production this week following a huge drive on the online networking site Facebook, where over 22,000 people joined the group “Bring back Cadbury’s Wispa Gold”.

Wispa Gold - back by popular demand
The original Wispa bar made a permanent return last year after 41 million bars sold out in 18 weeks – a rate of nearly four per second.
Originally launched in 1995, the caramel-filled Wispa Gold was discontinued in 2003 but is due to hit the shelves again on September 14 for a “limited period”.
What chocolate bar or sweetie would you like to see return?
Or which confectionary item can you not live without? Would you be prepared to set up a Facebook campaign to protect your perfect chocolate bar?

“Does anyone remember Choc sticks? Made by Trebor, i think. They were hard toffee on outside with chocolate running through and shaped like a barley sugar twist.”

“The big chocolate bar the Cadbury's made with a lovely tropical blend of fruits was heavenly, -- I am unable recall the name of it, -- it was produced in the 1950's and withdrawn quite quickly for some reason, -- any one here recall the name of it?”

“Think they were called Loggers but it was a chocolate bar in the shape of a tree trunk. There was a blue pack which was milk chocolate and a red pack which probably had a filling like nut or fruit. NO-one ever seems to remember them. Think it was Terrys that made them”
