You're still doing that American thing of forgetting that "caramel" has a second "a" in it. There's no corn syrup in New Zealand food. That's also an American thing. Flake you don't cut, it'll fall apart. You eat it from pushing it out of the wrapper at bite size chunks and bite it off.
Crunchi you get in almost any country I actually thought it was South African where im from I also thought picnic was south African we have it also you can get picnic you can find anywhere in the world.
A good numbr of fish &chip shops will do a deep fried Moro bar for you. If done well it's like a jolt of dopamine to the brain and a deep fried heart attack at the same time.
The Cherry Ripe chocolate bar was introduced in 1924 by MacRobertson Chocolates (later to be taken over by Cadbury in 1967) and is uniquely Australian. It’s combination of cherries, coconut and dark chocolate and is Australia’s oldest chocolate bar. In 2013 Roy Morgan Research found it to be our most popular chocolate bar. Cadbury, owned by Mondelez International (previously Kraft foods). The MacRobertson Picnic bar was first released in Australia in 1950 (also released in UK by Fry in the 1950s).[1] In 1967, Cadbury acquired MacRobertson Chocolates, a well-respected Australian confectionery manufacturer founded in 1880. The move gave Cadbury another major manufacturing base on the Australian mainland - at Ringwood in Melbourne, Victoria. It also added a range of unique confectionery brands, including Old Gold (launched in 1919), Picnic, Cherry Ripe (created in 1924) and Freddo Frog (created in 1930), which were household names.
I love the alpaca sweater!!! I ate candy bars growing up, but as an adult I never eat any!!! You might need to walk 5 miles or jog about 3 to run all that sugar off!!!! To bad you don’t have Snicker bars there! If you have a pool, you can put a Snicker in the pool water, and have the pool all to your self!!!!! LOL
I remember back in the early 1980's there was a bar called 'Peppy' bar -just like the Pinkie but with pale green peppermint flavored marshmallow filling. It unfortunately wasn't a success.
Flake is a British brand of chocolate bar...The original Flake product was first developed in 1920 and was discovered by chance by Ralph Thompson...By 1930, Cadbury's was selling half-length Flake specifically for garnishing vanilla soft serve ice cream in a cone ("99 Flakes") which was served by ice cream vendors.[2] First sold in the UK, they would later be sold in Ireland, Australia, South Africa and other nations. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flake_(chocolate_bar)
Whenever I come back to NZ I load up on Pinky bars to bring back, I'll be disappointed if they're going off the market, hopefully it's just temporary shortage.
The peanut slab, one of my favs, you have got to dunk it in hot coffee or cocoa - both with milk. Then you literally suck the death out of it, Whitakers, heck yes. I'm pretty sure Cadbury is no longer in NZ - all Aussie based. (They were in Dunedin) Favs, Whitakers Peanut bar, Cadbury Crunchie Bar (even though out of Aussie) Cadbury Pinky Bar (source the old jingle for it) and the Cadbury Moro. Bar. With the exception of Whitakers, I'm sure all of our bars come out of Aussie now. My opinion is these bars are now far too sweet and the chocolate is sub standard. Little NZ again gobbled up. Cheers Stephanie.
Many are either of British or Australian origin; Whitakers is very good, Australian law state that our chocolate has to be 55% cocoa (or used to be before Coscam19...).

The original NZ bars are the Crunchy ,Pinky , Flake , Moro and Whittakers Peanut Slab . These were manufactured by Cadbury in Dunedin and ,of course, Whittakers All the others are Australian imports that have appeared ,first, after import restrictions were relaxed and ,now , after Cadbury moved all manufacturing off shore. Once Cadbury left Whittakers expanded their range of products btw Moro was a local copy of a Mars Bar - not identical to avoid patent problems.
All of these have been around for years. Maybe stuff like this just tastes better when you're a kid. Don't like many of those except crunchie bars. Gotta have peanut slabs of course. Staple Kiwi Chocolate bars. Whittakers all the way.😂 Do love dime bars if you can find them but don't know where they are made.
Lol there is a choc covered Flake the majestic Luxury Flake, there was also a white choc snow Flake and again choc covered The Majestic Luxury Snow Flake lol not sure if they still make them? Also the moros were bigger and came in nuts the yellow wrapper and fruit and nut with the red wrapper. The Cadbury chocolate fingers with the twin layer of old, and of course spearmint minties and the choc ones sooowoooonkc
Thanks for the video! Nearly all these are now owned brands from Mondelēz International Inc. Aero comes in mint and the bland gold one you tasted (from Nestlé) and is European.
Not a single one of them made in NZ any more, IIRC. The Cherry Ripe and Perky Nana are Australian "icons", not NZ. The Cadbury's stuff is lower quality than they used to be when they were made in NZ.

@@iatsd Nope. Same with the Creme Eggs, when they moved production from Dunedin, the quality went way down from "sickly sweet but nice every so often to" to "slightly gritty and way, way too sweet" as well as the chocolate being worse.
A luxury flake was the bomb very tasty don't know if they sell them any more when Cadbury in Australia took over went down hill Cadbury why don't know tried a luxury flake here in Australia and nah not the same oh well go Whittaker's your chocolate is yeah
Most of these are actually Australian Chocolates. Made by cadbury in NZ. But one thing all Aussies hate is the bloody Moro Bars. Ugh YUCK. However the Whitakers blocks are genuine NZ. In Australia supermarkets have convinced manufacturers to downsize products but hike the price, Whitakers are the only chocolate bar i will buy in australia now as cadbury bars are the same price but not even half the size. Nestle is a terrible company. Flake is great for.... come at me kiwis Australian Pavlova. thats actually french lol

Cadbury is rubbish,they sold out and started using palm oil,plus they sacked 360 workers ,then moved to Australia. Because they said it would be cheaper,but, the Company tax rate is higher in Australia,and the basic tax rate is as well .

it's almost like... she's American.
The flake is important if you're making desserts - you can just crumble it on top 😋
Yip only time I buy flakes
They’re my favourite! I break off big bits then just pour the rest straight into my mouth yummo!
Stuck into a soft serve. So good.

Crunchie and peanut slab are the only ones of those that I buy when I'm in NZ.
Apart from the Whittakers peanut slab ALL the others were English varieties, made for Many years by Cadburys in Bournville.

@@stephendickson9000 Really, Never seen it here (i'm Over 50, and have lived in 4 eastern states)...
Flakes are so good in soft serve ice cream cone
Probably no high-fructose corn syrup. It’s not common here. Depends on brand.
Pinky bars are pink marshmallow coated with a thin layer of chocolate.
They *all* have HFCS! And low quality chocolate on all of them these days.
@@iatsd oh sad they’ve really gone downhill then
Ok I looked up ingredients and I don’t see any corn syrup. Glucose syrup yes, but that’s not the same thing as corn syrup.
@@riverAmazonNZ ah well, I was wrong on that then. :)
try making our new zealand onion dip with maggi onion soup mixed with condenced milk, its the goodz.

There’s a mint aero too - or at least there used to be!
@@riverAmazonNZ mint is the best
Have a flake inserted into ice cream. Deep fried Moro or deep fried mars bars are good. I like frozen crunchie bars.
We don't use corn syrup in New Zealand.
Cadbury Picnic is also available in Hong Kong.
Crunchy is just like hokey pokey
Cutting the Flake Bar is an insult. If you want the full experience of what we go through, you need to bite it.
You should look up the ads on UA-cam for these chocolate.
Sprinkle over ice cream. Vanilla ice cream and flake
you need to freeze the perky nana it is so much better when its cold
Thanks for the video! Nearly all these are now owned brands from Mondelēz International Inc. Aero comes in mint and the bland gold one you tasted (from Nestlé) and is European.
"Candy bars"- LOL! Here in NZ we never call them candy bars.
Bounty's
Yes just mounds ...
But bounty is so much better 😂😂
Snickers are my favorite. We can get PInky Bar.
I lived in NZ 4/66-1/68 (I was 12 when we arrived). I was addicted to Chocolate Fish - a fish shaped marshmallow chocolate covered piece of Heaven.
Mmm picnic bars yumm

Always a laff 🏆
Thx for doing so I don't have too 😜
Any last requests???
Except for Moro, and Pinky ( made by Cadburys), none of the rest are New Zealand products. Cherry Ripes are Australian.
So were Picnics, brought by cadburys along with others...
