Advantages: Nice taste

Disadvantages: Fattening

Most people are quite partial to Chocolate and if they were truthful they would probably say they did have too much chocolate. I am one of those people and there are many chocolates that I am quite partial to. Here is my review of Cadbury's Milk Tray which is one of the most well known boxes of chocolates.

Milk Tray was first made in 1915 and is one of the longest running products from the brand. There have been some subtle changes to the assortment of the chocolates and the packaging since the first boxes in 1915 and there have been many adverts including the biggest recent one of sponsoring Coronation Street.
The Milk Tray name is now owned by Cadbury Schweppes and there are around 8 million boxes of these sold every year in the United Kingdom alone.

Now that's all covered. So here we come onto the various chocolates included in Milk Tray. The Boxes come in two different sizes 454g which is available for around £5 and 227g which is available for about £3 depending on where you buy them from. This is around the standard price you would expect to pay for boxes of chocolates like Milk Tray.

And now a rundown of the chocolates you will find in boxes of Milk Tray.

Caramel Charm

This is a hard caramel square which is very chewy and takes the longest time to eat of all the chocolates here. It has a creamy caramel taste and the touch of the Milk Chocolate with it works well.

Mocha Mystery

Coffee chocolates are very common and this is one of the nicest tasting ones. I am not a coffee drinker but I do quite like eating one of these.

Honey Love

This is one of the most different chocolates that Cadbury have done. It is a really nice combination of their unmistakable milk chocolate touched with honey flavoured caramel which is divine.

Orange Truffle

There are some many different chocolate orange products on the market and this is one of the nicest. A orange segment shaped chocolate which melts in the mouth with it's tangy flavour coming through.

Hazelnut Caress

Of the chocolates containing nut Hazelnut is probably my least favourite but this chocolate is still very nice I just don't like it as much as I do the others.

Fudge Dream

A box of chocolates from Cadburys is not complete without a fudge one and this doesnt dissapoint with it's Vanilla Fudge flavour encased in creamy Milk Chocolate. Lovely

Hazelnut Heaven

This is the Hazelnut chocolate that comes bottom of them all in the Box. Not a big fan of Hazelnut chocolates and this is the worst of the four of them.

Soft Whisper

This is yet another Hazelnut chocolate put the redeeming feature is that it also has praline. One of the nicest Hazelnut chocolates I have tasted

Strawberry Kiss

This is another one that melts in the mouth just like the Orange Truffle. A gorgeous mix of Strawberry and Vanilla. Very nice indeed.

Nut Secret

Yet another Hazelnut chocolate but this one is alright. It's a nice milk truffle chocolate. Four different Hazelnut chocolates is too much though for one box.

Eastern Delight

This is one of the nicest Turkish Delights I have tried. A really nice square shaped mix of the chocolate and Turkish Delight filling. This Also has a great texture.

Caramel Heart

And we end on the Caramel Heart, A delicious heart shaped mix of soft caramel and the distinctive Cadbury's milk chocolate. A really nice chocolate.

Overall

As you know having too many chocolates is not good for you and will make you put on weight but as long as you only have a few of these it won't harm your health. The good thing is that these are great to share and many boxes are bought as presents for Birthdays and special occasions.

Buy one for the family and all have a few chocolates each, spread them around. Nice chocolates but don't eat them that regularly.

Summary: Great tasting
