I noticed an ad in a magazine for a new Cadbury block. We saw them when we went grocery shopping & picked it up. They are Very Tasty and if you live somewhere that you can buy one, try it out!

It's the new Cadbury Dairy Milk Mousse bar. We got the caramel one in that link and it was nice. The inside is softish, though not as soft as I was expecting. Also, the shape/size of the individual pieces are a bit odd, largish and triangular. Probably because of the mousse consistancy, but I would have preferred something a little smaller for ease of eating.

All in all, I'd give it a thumbs up. I've seen the caramel, hazelnut and I think plain chocolate flavours. I'd love to see a mint variety that was light on the mint flavour.

I didn't realise it but their dairy milk is now Fair Trade. I'm still strongly a Whitaker's guy but between the Fair Trade for all their dairy milk and this chocolate mousse, I'm being tempted to the Dark Side!

I haven't seen those in the UK yet, though Lindt do something a bit similar, which is lovely.

I shall have to look out for it.

For all that Dairy Milk is very, very popular over here, there are still some of the lines that aren't that easy to get hold of. I really like the Bar of Plenty, but it only seems to turn up in some supermarkets and not on the High Street.

Keep your eyes open for the new bar. It is similar to Lindt, but definitely not quite the same. I think Lindt are a nicer chocolate but the Cadbury is a good, cheap eat. :)

PS- My wife really likes the Bar of Plenty with shortcake in it. I haven't tried any of the others though.

I was really pleased to see that the plain Dairy Milk is fair trade, though apparently they haven't publicised it much in Australia because their research showed people don't understand the Fair Trade logo and associate it with "expensive"!

I've seen that chocolate mousse in the supermarket - next time I go shopping I might give it a try!

I was glad to see it too. While I don't buy exclusively Fair Trade, I do buy it if I'm given it as an option over something non-Fair Trade. Bummer that they don't publicize it more because of negative connotations.

Try it and let us know what you think about it!
