When I was a wee fella growing up in Scotland in the 50's and 60's there wasn't nearly as much choice of choccy bars and sweeties as there is today. I can remember that my favourite chocolate bars back then were Mars Bars, Picnic, and Fry's Chocolate Cream. (And orange) My old dad's favourite was Cadbury's Bournville, a plain, dark chocolate, that I was convinced he used to eat because he knew my mum and I didn't like it, and he would get the whole bar to himself! I tried it, of course, but it used to remind me of Senopod. (or was it Senokot?) Anyways, the stuff that my mum used to give me to kick start my bowels when I would get constipated. ...  Read the complete review

I have been an unregistered reader on Dooyoo for a long time now and thought I would try my hand at a review. This is my first so please be kind. Cadbury's Bournville has been around forever and since I was a child it hasn't changed tastewise. Each mouthful of Bournville is a treat as the dark chocolate is rich with a perfect amount of sweetness. It takes longer to melt in your mouth than Cadbury's milk chocolate which serves to make the savouring of this delicious bar last all the longer. As much as I enjoy a Bournville, I am aware of better quality dark chocolate in the shops. Green & Blacks Maya Gold or Lindt 70% Cocoa Solids are the 2 best ...  Read the complete review

Ahh.. dark chocolate out of all the chocolates that exist dark chocolate for me trumps them all. From brand to brand I've tried plenty, Green and Blacks, Moser Roth, Co-operatives own brand, and recently Cadburys Bournville. From first look of this chocolate you are presented with a bright red packaging with the Cadburys logo and a picture of the dark chocolate which is obviously there to ensure you are as eager as you should be to open up the packet and start munching on this wonderful treat! According to the packaging there are 125 calories per 4 segments, a modest sum for dark chocolate, I would say 4 segments is equal to my own ...  Read the complete review
