  1. Toffee Crisp and Blue Riband can't be called chocolate any more

    'Nestle has reformulated Toffee Crisp and Blue Riband bars, reducing their cocoa and milk solid content below UK chocolate standards, leading to their reclassification as "encased in a smooth milk chocolate flavour coating." This change, driven by rising cocoa prices, reflects a broader industry trend known as "skimpflation," where companies adjust recipes to manage increased production costs. Similar adjustments have been made by other brands, such as McVitie's, which recently relabelled its Penguin and Club bars as "chocolate flavour."'

  2. Tried a new chocolate bar. I like it! It’s creamy, like it says! 🍫😋💜 It’s something new at the nearby supermarket. They definitely carry more #vegan options compared to a few years ago. 🤗

  3. Something else I enjoyed: the local chocolate bars (Vintage Pantations, handmade in Umeå nordicchocolate.se & Svenska Kakaobolaget, from the South of Sweden svenskakakao.se) I returned with. We shall not talk about how much I paid for them, too scary and Halloween has already passed. 👀🥴🤫 But it's nice stuff.
