Zen Giveaway ~ Cadbury Marvellous Creations Banana Candy, Peanut Drops and Choc Biscuit

What can I say ?  just when I thought they couldn't create a more interesting and unexpected flavour combination. Cadbury surprised me . A few weeks ago I was sent the new Cadbury Dairy Milk Marvellous Creations Banana Candy, Peanut Drops and Choc Biscuit to sample !

First - my Zen Chocolate Thoughts

  1. “There is nothing better than a friend, unless it is a friend with chocolate.”
    Linda Grayson
  2. “Without pain, how could we know joy?' This is an old argument in the field of thinking about suffering and its stupidity and lack of sophistication could be plumbed for centuries but suffice it to say that the existence of broccoli does not, in any way, affect the taste of chocolate.” {I still love broccoli}
    John Green, The Fault in Our Stars  
  3. “Strength is the capacity to break a Hershey bar into four pieces with your bare hands - and then eat just one of the pieces.” {Tried - too weak}
    Judith Viorst, Love & Guilt & The Meaning Of Life, Etc  
  4. “Can I come back and see you sometime?"
    "Long as you bring me some chocolate," Gramma said, and smiled. "I'm partial to chocolate."
    "Gramma, you're diabetic."
    "I'm old, girl. Gonna die of something. Might as well be chocolate.”
    Rachel Caine, The Dead Girls' Dance  
  5. “May your life be filled, as mine has been, with love and laughter; and remember, when things are rough all you need is ... Chocolate.”
    Geraldine Solon, Chocolicious 


Once we broke open the block , we devoured it ...[seriously a resealable package ]- within , thickly wrapped in smooth and creamy Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolate, were velvety - melt in your mouth peanut drops- to get tastebuds tingling, as delightfully as the retro and oh-so-scrumptious banana candy pieces , colliding with a hearty crunch of choc biscuit.

We shared it with family and friends. Some liked it and some commented on the strong banana flavour. It is apparently peanut butter in the drops and the biscuit crunch though not new is still delicious too.

 I wasn't so much a fan of Peanut, Toffee Crisp and Biscuit variation myself , none the less  I enjoyed the Banana Candy, Peanut Drops and Choc Biscuit but not as much with the Jelly Popping Candy Beanies !!!

I love all types of Cadbury chocolate. My favourite is still the recently added variation Marvellous Creations Clinkers, Raspberry Chips & Marshmallows. I was sent a bag of actual raspberry chips in June and they are like jaw breaking toffee mmm so good.

I haven't tried the new Marvellous Creations yet, but it's my daughter's birthday coming up so the perfect time to share with family. Nothing says love like a mouth full of chocolate.
I love the jelly popping candy beanies and I love sharing it with my 3 daughters while watching our favourite movies.
I love jelly popping candy beanies marvellous creations! I love sharing it with my husband after the kids are in bed while we watch a movie or play a game together and relax <3

My BF, without her, I wouldn't have been able to cope this year. She's kept me sane throughout the many, many hospital visits, kept me grounded with her ability to keep everyday "normal" and now she's needs me and I'm there for her, respect!

I'm the same as you - LOVE the Marvellous Creations Clinkers, Raspberry Chips & Marshmallows! But it's a bit of a battle to get any in this house! Lol
But despite the fact hubby has a habit of gobbling all the chocolate while I'm trying to get the kids to sleep, I'd still share it with him (I'd just make sure I hid a bit for myself first!)

Popping candy with jelly beans is my favourite.
I either share it with my husband if the kids are in bed or hide in my wardrobe scoffing some before the kids find out I have chocolate and want some. Then I have to share with them.
If I get to try the new banana candy I only have to hide it from the kids as hubby hates banana. Mmm I sense more wardrobe time for me! Must remember to open the pack quieter this time!
Love the Gummy bear one!!! Once the silky smooth chocolate has melted away, love the chewy bits that remain.
The Clinker one!!! Wish they made it though only with pink Clinkers, no green ones!! I'd share with hubby, while snuggled up on the couch watching TV.
My Favourite is the Clinkers, Raspberry Chips & Marshmallows. I'd share it with my Pappa. He's a chocolate connoisseur, so it would be fun to sit and eat and talk about it the way wine connoisseurs talk about their wine. Oh did you get that fruity hit of raspberry with the marshmallow overtone. Especially while Nanna sits watching us and laughs because we would rather chocolate over any other meal.
I would share my Cadbury with my family even though I feel like saying "me, myself and I lol", but it's so much more fun to share.
Banana candy would be so dandy,
I would love to share
With little beauty, my cutie Lucy-
My five sisters would say 'Not fair!'

I am a Clinkers, Raspberry Chips & Marshmallow girl. Ooh, that luscious chocolate that makes your mouth salivate and dribble chocolate down your chin. If I had my way I would hide the lot, but I've been caught out before, unable to respond due to a mouth stuffed with tasty goodness. So feeling guilty I reluctantly share. Like a Sergeant Major, rationing out one piece at a time. But if nobody is watching I will sneak a piece of three. It is just too overpowering. It's my daytime fix of 'pleasure'.
I love the Jelly Popping Candy Beanies and I won't share this flavour with anyone. I share all my other Cadbury chocolate with everyone because life's too short to be greedy and if I don't share with them, they won't share with me.

Seeing as though Father's Day is fast approaching, I'd share with all of the important men in my life; my dad, my husband, and my father-in-law!
I've only tried the Peanut, Toffee Crisp and Biscuit flavour, but I loved it! If I won, I'd share the chocolate with my mother's group - we're all chasing around after almost-toddlers at the moment, so I think they could do with a little something. :)
My recent post Bacon and Nutella Toasted Sandwich
Do I have to share????? I would share with Hubby - each night he makes me a cup of tea and it would be nice to share a 'little' each night with him...who am I kidding - pretty sure it wouldn't take long for it to just disappear!

My hubby and I both love Banana Candy, Peanut Drops and Choc Biscuit. We have it every morning to start our big day with joy!
Chocolate Biscult is my favourite. I would share most of it with my family but keep one block for myself - it's not often enough that I have some luxury just for me :)
I would share with my 3 sisters, though it may not last long. I love my sisters, they are always there for me. Does not matter what's going on in life, I know I can count on them. The Jelly and Crunchie bits is the best one I have liked so far. They should make one with caramel chunks, macadamia nuts and raspberry licorish.
I want to speak to the Marvellous creator him or herself! I need to let them know how much bigger my thighs are getting every time I go to the supermarket. I am absolutely obsessed with these creations. I sneak them in the shopping bag and eat them in the car by myself. I refuse to share! Greedy, I know..but I am not sharing..no matter what!
I haven't tasted the Marvellous Creations yet, but I'd share with my nephew. He always shares his toys with me, so I'd return the favour
I haven't tried these yet but I just love the fun & quirky packaging! Reminds me of Willy Wonka :)

I'd share this with my mum, so we could have a time to sit down over coffee and chocolate in the afternoon and catch up properly! She deserves all the chocolate in the world for everything she does for me, and I know she'd love this awesome flavour combo.

Thanks for the chance!
