The BBC reports that Penguin and Club Bars can no longer be called chocolate because the coating doesn’t contain enough cocoa solids. The price of chocolate has rocketed so much that the bars will now have a chocolate flavoured coating.
i would prefer to buy real chocolate coated biscuits less often than I do at present, rather than consume chocolate coated biscuits that taste of plastic.
It’s such a shame that chocolate has become so expensive. It feels like we are going back in time to the16th century, when cocoa beans were so expensive they were used as currency and were kept under lock and key.
