Cadbury Dairy Milk Fruit & Nut Milk Chocolate Candy, Bar 3.5 oz

You know, sometimes you just need a little something to get you through the 3 p.m. slump at work. I usually keep a stash in my desk drawer for that exact reason, and I grabbed this Cadbury Dairy Milk Fruit %26 Nut bar to restock my supply. First thing I noticed when I opened it—it actually smells like chocolate. Not waxy or artificial, just rich and sweet. The bar itself is a decent size for an afternoon treat; thick enough to feel satisfying without being a whole meal. The fruit and nuts are pretty generous, too. I hate it when you bite into a "fruit and nut" bar and it's mostly just chocolate with a stray almond every third bite. This one has currants or raisins (not totally sure which) and almonds scattered throughout pretty consistently, so you get a little texture and that salty-sweet pop in almost every piece. The chocolate itself is that classic Cadbury creaminess, which I personally love. It melts at room temperature really nicely, so it doesn't feel like you're chewing on a rock. My only tiny gripe? I wish the almonds were a tad more roasted. They add a good crunch, but they're a little mild on the flavor side. Still, that's a minor complaint when I'm just trying to make it through a Thursday afternoon. The bar disappeared pretty fast, so I'm hoping it stays a consistent go-to. Nothing worse than finding out your favorite snack changed the recipe after you've already committed to it.
