Another sweet bar bites the dust

[Saleen836]

Has always been a favourite of mine and Nestle are stopping production

[Sheepshanks]

Oh no!

I wonder if they'll still do the Caramc Easter eggs?

ETA: Just told my wife, she said she knew, but didn't want to tell me!

[cliffords]

They started tasting horrible about 4 years ago , unless it's just me .

[Soloman Dodd]

They tasted sickly and horrible in the 1960s.

[anonymous-user]

It was never very good to begin with, newsagents near me even as a kid struggled to sell them

[TIGA84]

Isn't this because Caramilk now exists?

[Quhet]

I don't think I've ever had one and can't remember the last time I even saw one in the shops so i guess this isn't really a surprise. Wonder what the next chocolate bar to go will be?

[sgrimshaw]

Had a hankering for some last month, maybe it was a premonition

No comparison.

What a wonderful bit of free advertising they've got, it was even on the national TV news last night. That should be good for when they reintroduce it in January 2024 due to 'exceptional customer demand' and should guarantee them another round of free advertising at that point.

The worst chocolate in a Christmas selection box in the 80’s, and I don’t suppose much has changed. Good riddance.

There's a video on YouTube of a Canadian chap turning paint thinner into cherry soda and drinking it. I imagine caramac involved a similar chemical process.

More importantly with the season of goodwill and over-eating nearly on us, Andrews Liver Salts have been discontinued!!

Utter twunts!

I emailed them yesterday and they just blamed declining sales.

Really? never advertised or promoted, who would have thought it.

But your competitor is chucking their version in everything like there's no tomorrow, so maybe there is a market for it.

Yeah, normally because it's sh*t !!

What a load of sickly mess !! See comments above - the majority don't like it. Therefore it fails.

(Sorry to sound harsh but it is a load of sickly old poo ...... )

[ade73]

Found some



Also seen Munchies gold and smarties gold both with made with Caramac on the packaging, so maybe Nestle are doing what cadburys are with caramilk.

WRONG

Turkish Delight was the worst.

Potayto / potahto.

[Mr.Chips]

Found some today in the local Iceland. Apparently, a woman came in during the week and asked to buy 10 boxes!!!
Turns out she makes wedding cakes and some people just love it when it is used sparingly to decorate their cakes.

[Nethybridge]

I did have a taste for white chocolate and
Caramac.

So RIP Caramac and thanks for the fillings.

More likely she's put them on ebay.
