Food & Drink Chocolate Straws: The List

I'd love to see cheesecake biscuits, i have finally found the biscuity goodness centre of the web.

 

Thats what we need...Extreme cooling

Anyone fancy trying a deep freeze and if freezing your choco bar improves lastability?

 

Yes, just plain yes. These taste so good when used as straws. I can't comment on using tea but do it with orange squash which is awesome.

Squash > Tea ... stops degrading molecular stability :|

 

No drink goes better with a biccy (chocolate or not) than a good cup of tea.

 

I can confirm that crunchie works BRILLIANTLY.

But Pink Wafers are better

 

What ive bought for testing

Cream egg twisted
Boost
toffee crisp
Kitkat Chuncky
and a cheep option, Cad fudge bar

 

i'm thinking frozen butterfinger crisp.


oh wait, you lads don't get those on the right side do you?


and forget the tea - try it with a nice cup of properly brewed, sweetened, and creamed coffee. (none of that sissy french press or nasty perculatored junk - Bunn pots or hand poured through a melitta cup filter please - 1 oz by volume medium grind per 16 oz water. )

 

Hmm, do Cadbury's still make the "Spira"? It was basically a chocolate tube with open ends & 6 ribs in a spiral pattern.

 

havnt seen those for ages they were pretty nice.

 

They were just a chocolate-coated flake tbh. Pretty good.

They could work quite well though.

 

I would very much like to see my abs by the end of summer. This thread has put that endeavour in serious jeopardy.

 

No, that was the "Twirl". The Spira had pretty thick (2-3mm?) sidewalls.

To answer my own question, the Spira is long gone. I just found an online petition asking for it to come back.

 

Tried the Time Out, out of pure scientific intrest ya see, and It's brilliant, and fun

 

hha yeah, spira is like thick chocolate, where as flakes and ripples are FLAKEY!

also, i got some tunnocks and rockys to try

 

Ahh... I remember I used to mix up Spira and Twirl. They are variations on the same awesome theme though.

 

Have a go with Tim Tams. There is a thing called (I think) a Tim Tam Explosion which apparently Kylie loves. I was introduced to it by a teacher at school but you bite off the opposite corners from a Tim Tam (which is like a Penguin bar with a softer middle) then suck up warm tea until some come out the top, then stuff it all in your mouth and munch it.

If it very yummy, but be careful with the temperature of the tea - too hot and it all explodes on the way to your mouth/burns you

 

People! People!

If you've tried stuff I want DETAILED ANALYSIS for the first post!!

Also if others have tried it - do it again and recommend your own experiences!

 

Ok, so you guys are really serious about this then lol

 

Flake - almost failure. Falls apart and barely makes a straw. Lasted all of 3 seconds.

Overall, not very good.

 

Crunchie - Takes a LOT of scucking to get it up. I found, breaking it into 1/4ths or so made it easier. The honeycombe is awesome when full of tea.
