Checkers brings back iconic chocolate bar discontinued over 10 years ago

Checkers has brought back an iconic South African chocolate bar after more than a decade off the shelves.

Damn, I used to love a Caravan and Inside Story.

Why not Tempo or Yes/No?

Headline should rather have been: "Checkers brings back watered down chocolate bar discontinued over 10 years ago"

Unfortunately it isn't nearly as good as the original Caravan was. I don't know if some Tex recipe has been added, but it was "meh" at best.

Yea, Tempo was legit good. Isn't a Caravan more or less a Tex?

Too much wafer, not enough caramel

There was caramel? All I tasted was wafer wrapped in cheap chocolate.

I think it was (top to bottom) chocolate, wafer, caramel, wafer, icing, wafer, caramel, wafer, chocolate. The new recipe probably doesn't have the caramel in. I need to buy some more and cut them open, for science.

I'm saying there was so little caramel I couldn't taste it - at all.

Old one, two thin layers of caramel.

New one, no caramel present.

Huh, Caravan probably would have been my last choice.

Give me Tempo any day,.

What is all this love for a Tempo? That thing was so sweet it burned my throat.

 

[boomslang]

It just tasted like a normal Tex to me

Yes - @geezer pointed out why in post #12

I have checked the wrapper the other day and it doesn't have any caramel.
