Me too Cinders. But then I get over excited so easily.

I just hope it's not a huge disappointment.

Re: Cadbury Darkmilk

Cadbury's, as you probably know, is now owned by Mondelez International, Inc., an American multinational confectionery, food, holding and beverage company based in Chicago, Illinois, USA.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...a-content.html

Cadbury is launching a new darker chocolate bar for ‘grown-ups’, but has shrunk the size – making it appear healthier.

The Darkmilk bar has a much higher cocoa content than the popular Dairy Milk and reflects an increasing demand for ‘pure’ chocolate with a stronger kick.

A standard Dairy Milk bar weighs 110g and normally costs £1.50, whereas Darkmilk is 23 per cent smaller at 85g but still has a price of £1.49. Cadbury has also shrunk the recommended portion size.

On Dairy Milk it lists a portion as six chunks of chocolate – 27.5g – adding up to 147 calories. The Darkmilk bar, pictured above, lists a portion as just three chunks – 14g – adding up to 79 calories.

The calorie count for Darkmilk is 562 per 100g, which means it is actually more likely to make consumers put on weight than Dairy Milk, which is 534 calories per 100g. Darkmilk is also higher in fat, although lower in sugar.

Caveat emptor .....

Cadbury's chocolate is not what it was. It used to melt in your mouth to leave a nice creamy taste but now it's like a lining of grease in your mouth. I now buy Lidl brand chocolate (when the itch takes me). Very nice it is.

Agreed. I do miss that silky sensation as the melted chocolate slides down
