Again this Dairy Milk milk chocolate is different in taste, it’s creamier, thicker and of far better quality. Although the new shape is a little thinner and less chunky than the old one, each individual bar weighs exactly the same. Clare, our range of creamy and sweet 33% cocoa milk chocolate bars are designed to thrill the taste buds most of the imaginative, daring consumer as well as the more traditional chocolate connoisseur. The bar purchased in Northern Ireland was judged the sweeter (“smoother” and “creamier” were other comments), but when we compared ingredients (which were exactly the same) and nutritional information, we saw that the Irish chocolate had slightly more fat, sugar and calories than the other. I am a huge fan of Carmelo chocolate, and the Irish version of this classic treat did not disappoint.

I think flies would even turn their nose up at this thing, which looked like rotten infested seaweed. Let’s face it Irish Cadbury Dairy Milk has totally smashed British Cadbury Dairy Milk right out of the park. They are made in Ireland and I believe they were possibly once sold here years ago but are no longer available and have not being for years. In a world where it seems like everything is getting smaller and more expensive, it’s great to see that the Dairy Milk bar isn’t cutting any corners.In February 2015, the company announced it was closing its Tallaght plant and moving some of its production from Coolock to Poland, resulting in the loss of about 200 jobs. MILK**, sugar, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, vegetable fats (palm, shea), emulsifiers (E442, E476), flavourings. They were certified back in 2008 and have increased the amount of fair trade cocoa sourced in West Africa.

In fact, their Irish operation makes some products that aren’t even available in their homeland of the UK, such as the Golden Crisp and Mint Crisp. But if you want that pure, velvety chocolate experience, Cadbury’s Dairy Milk is what you’re looking for. Turns out that packaging was very misleading because nothing could prepare me for the horror that was lurking inside. This felt odd, as we all felt the Northern-Irish bar tasted sweeter, but it actually had slightly less sugar and fat.The Irish and British communities in the US are still mourning the loss of authentic Cadbury's chocolate after it was banned in the US in 2014, following a lawsuit from American confectionery giant Hershey's but we just have to hope that we receive a nice care package in time. It would appear more care and thought has gone into these bars than those sold here in the UK, and this definitely needs to be addressed.
