Advantages: Nice taste.
Disadvantages: The calories in it!
I've always said I'm not a great lover of the Fruit & Nut chocolate bars - I've always bought whole nut or just plain old chocolate bars. But it's been years since I've had a bar of chocolate with fruit and nut, so thought I'd treat myself to a bar and see if I can change my opinion of it!
I decided on buying Cadbury's Dairy Milk Fruit & Nut. I paid £0.45p for a 49g bar. It's certainly not the cheapest chocolate around but, hey, it is Cadbury's - one of the best brands around! And everybody knows who Cadbury's are!
PACKAGING
~~~~~~~~
The chocolate bar comes in a purple and red foil wrapper, with a white strip of white in the middle, which is milk. The Dairy Milk Fruit & Nut name is on the front along with a picture of some fruit and nuts.
On the back of the wrapper are the ingredients, nutritional information and contact details. Also a very small bit about visiting Cadbury World with the phone number.
THE CHOCOLATE
~~~~~~~~~~~
There are 6 segments of this chocolate. I noticed that some segments contain fruit and nut, some just fruit and some just nuts. The chocolate is milk chocolate with raisins and almonds. The Cadbury name is embossed on each segment of chocolate.
Per 49g bar there is 240kcal and 3% protein. It doesn't say how much fat is in it, but I'd rather not know to be brutally frank with you!
On biting into the chocolate the almonds are nice and crunchy. I like the idea of nuts in chocolate, but wasn't sure what to make of the fruit. When I came to the fruit I bit into it. The raisins weren't hard and were quite chewy. When I came to a segment with a piece of nut and fruit in it, I found that the two blended well together. The milk chocolate is lovely and taste just as chocolate should do!
With only 6 segments, this chocolate doesn't last very long as you can imagine! On the other hand though, you can buy those big bars of this if you want more. I bet they sell well over Christmas!
This may contain traces of wheat and soya.

MY OPINION
~~~~~~~
I liked this chocolate, but I'm not head over heals with it. I still prefer the whole nut, but it made a change to break a habit of a lifetime and go for something I don't normally opt for.
Thanks for reading!
