Cadbury Dairy Milk Turkish Delight - 49g

Cadbury Dairy Milk sits at the heart of British chocolate, and the filled bars are where the personalities come out. Turkish Delight is the odd one in the family: no caramel, no biscuit, just that jelly centre that people either defend loudly or quietly leave for someone else.

When someone in Canada goes looking for it, they are usually chasing one particular memory: a corner shop, a bus stop, a grandparent who always had one tucked in a handbag. It is the sort of bar you forget about for years and then want, urgently, on a wet Tuesday.

It is a single bar, a proper one-person size that slips into a coat pocket or a lunch bag without fuss. Keep it somewhere cool and dry, well away from the radiator, and the chocolate stays as it should. Some eat it straight from the wrapper; others swear by a spell in the fridge so the centre firms up and the chocolate snaps.

It sits happily alongside other Cadbury bars in a basket, and it makes a good addition to a parcel for anyone who grew up with it. Buy a couple and hide one. You know why.
