Wtf has happened to these? I'm sure there used to be an awful lot more variety in these? Anyone find that about 7 different chocolates in the box are basically caramels with different names?

MrMoonX · 20 Dec 2009 at 21:09

yep too much caramel

I dislike what they have made the strawberry ones into

yup! I prefer the old style roses where the strawberry one was wrapped in the blue foil, there was a mini bourneville and dairy milk bar, coffee and other different flavours, not just caramel, caramel and er caramel.

I used to prefer Roses to Quality Street but now it's the other way around.

I think they should bring back the old Roses. Maybe we should start a petition, isn't that how Wispa came back?

I just tried Googling to find out what all the old flavours were and just saw the link for this thread..how cool

(am easily amused!)

Quality Street strawberry creams are far superior.

I miss the Quality Street coffee cream though, that used to be my favourite.

I mean don't get me wrong, I like caramel, but Golden Barrel and Caramel Velvet are the same thing but a slightly different shape ffs!

Mini-bournvilles for the win I think

Me too.

Both Quality Street and Roses used to be awesome. It went down hill after they binned the coffee creams.

Totally with you on the Strawberry ones in Quality Street, absolutely godly, especially following a Toffee Finger!

Can't stand Coffee/Coffee flavoured chocolates though

I totally agree with this .. can't believe they ditched the mini dairy milk bars

the only caramels i like are the soft centred ones can't stand thoes chewy square ones and the strawberry centres really aren't as good

Cool story bro

Get a tin of roses, some of the tins are still the old sweets. All the boxes are new crappy ones though.

I was talking about this last night. I too lambasted the demise of the Coffee Cream, much to the distaste of everyone on the table.

I love these but things just don't taste the same now.

This guy speaks the truth, loved the coffee creams, gutted when they got rid of them! The orange ones now though are horrid, taste like calpol.

I don't take calpol i thought it was for kids under ten.

You must not be old enough to be on here.

You're spot on, I like mini chocolates being just that - a tiny version of their much loved larger brethren.

I also like my king size bars to be big. There's everything awesome about the gigantification of confectionery:
