Re: Old Skool Packaging

now its tiny lol

It's usually Wagon Wheels that folk say that about! (Groan! Sorry!)

Yeah, Trophy was rebranded as Banjo, much to the disgust of a wee guy at my judo club whose nickname was Banjo and then had to put up with all sorts of, "You're just a trophy in disguise," taunts.

Can you?. I must not be looking very hard, any supermarkets/major shops you know that still sell them?.

I bought some very recently from Poundstretcher £1.00 for a 10 pack and don't know if Morrisons still sell them (had orange flavour too)

Was Banjo chocolate once called Trophy? I only remember it being called Banjo from the 70/80's I ate loads of them!

ps excuse the small pic when I tried to upload it as original size I was told it was too large now its tiny lol

Re: Old Skool Packaging

I personally dont remember the Cadbury Craze.

Don't remember Cadbury's Craze either. On one of your photos there is a Trophy bar chocolate made by Rivingtons? I heard that Banjo chocolate which suddenly vanished early eighties (made by MARS) used to be called Trophy? You can still buy Trophy today.

Hi Darren I must admit those wrappers make me hungry too! Wouldn't mind trying them out lol. That would be my dream job working in a chocolate factory as a chief taster or even a chocolate packer as I could sample a choc or two while I worked hahahahaha.

Talking of chocolates I tried Cadburys Crispello (a bit like Ferrero Beuno which I think is better) only 3 small squares I swear chocolates get smaller (kid size). Bought Cadbury Oreo hope that is better. Those 80s chocolates looks more interesting though. The discontinued ones they should bring back.

Re: Old Skool Packaging

wow fantastic heather how do you do it.

a dble decker and a wispa for 16p.WOW.
Only one i can sort of remember is the strawberry creme..

beautiful packaging.

Strange you say that you only remember the Strawberry Creme as in another thread you claim to love the Cadbury 'Silk' bar as it tasted like silk (Defunct Sweets Thread). Why say you remember something when you don't?
