Since my last visit to WDW, I've been reading about the fabulous chocolates available in the UK pavilion at Epcot. What are everyone's favorites/suggestions? My favorite American candy bars are Kit Kat, Twix, Snickers and Skor
 
Do they have the Aero bars there - I love those! I'm pretty sure I got one of those in the UK at Epcot.
 
It's got to be Cadbury's, if you want real British chocolate! None of that Nestle rubbish! ;)
 

Any of them!! I LOVE UK chocolate because it doesn't trigger migraines for me like US chocolate does.

Some of my favorites (not sure what is sold at WDW because I buy a lot from two local Brit Expat shops):

Curly Wurly
Double Decker
Dairy Milk with Caramel
Time Out
Maltesers
Wispa
Buttons (white chocolate - yum!!)
Fry's Turkish Delight

(Also - not chocolate, but Jelly Babies are yummy, too!)
 
The Flake is awesome. My favorite is the Curly Wurly. It's braided carmel covered in chocolate.
 
Ah - the Wispa, I think that's what I was thinking about when I said Aero bar. They're similar I believe, but I think Aero bars were sold in our local grocery when I lived near Canada, or else I got them in Canada.
 
I like their Mars bars. They're not like Mars bars in the US. They're like our Milky Way, only the chocolate is much better!
 
I love Buttons and usually buy every bag they have out on the shelves...:rolleyes1
 
Will you have a car with you? If so go offsite to the Publix grocery stores and get all of the same stuff for 1/2 the price

Alot of the British confectionery you get in the likes of Publix is still made in the USA under licence so it isn't quite the same as the "real" stuff you can buy in Epcot :thumbsup2

Any Cadbury's chocolate is lovely especially Flake, Twirl and Dairy Milk.

This. U.S.-made Cadbury and Canada/UK-made Cadbury are very different. They use a slightly different recipe. (The U.S. stuff will trigger my migraines, the foreign-made stuff won't.) They also don't make all the varieties in the U.S. that they do overseas.
 
We tried the Flake, Aero, Curly Wurly, Turkish Delight and Kit Kats. The Flake and Curly Wurly were my favorites. I have to say that I could taste very little difference in the British Kit Kat and American ones.
 
I brought a bunch of them back 10 days ago, Aero bars included. :goodvibes
 
Flake, cadbury and aero are my favs. I am really lucky that my local grocery stores has imported UK candy bars, so I get them often now, but they don't carry flakes, so that is a special WDW treat.

I don't remember if WDW has Lion bars, but those are good to if you come across one.
 
Last time I checked, the difference was in the sugar, if sugar is in the ingredients it should be really good, if it's high fructose corn syrup put it back :lmao:
 
Well, I read the topic line and was thinking a different direction entirely!

I was going to recommend Thorntons! :goodvibes

I have an awful evil friend in Ireland who got me addicted to the stuff. Its not easy for a girl in Michigan to get chocolate from the UK! I'm very sad as I haven't had any in a long time now!

Can I make a suggestion to start selling Thorntons in the UK at Epcot?
:goodvibes
