It was a golden cup, they came in 2 different sizes the big bar and the little one was like you say a finger dome shaped & had a foil wrapper. That was the only size i ever had enough money for :cry: lol

Was in a cadbury factory shop yesterday and they had some great Robert Opie/Cadbury stuff in there. I bought a mug covered in pics of long gone Cadbury wrappers. There was also a storage tin that looked great!

Just picked up a copy. It's twice as thick as TV Cream Toys by the same author (Steve Berry) which I didn't expect.

Its great. I only have one small gripe.
Some (not all) of the pics used (and I have confirmed this with the authors) are CGI mockups, E.G there is a picture of a Count Dracula's Secret, in its wrapper, with lolly sticking out, but the stick is wooden, not the plastic "Trace-a-Face" that's mentioned on the pack.
Still, it gives people an idea what they used to look like
