Has anyone ever used Cybercandy?

Quite interesting seeing some of the stuffs you can't get over here - they seem bloody expensive though - £1.42 for one standard bar??? (Ozzy section) :roll: :lol:

Yeah,i've used them twice in the last year or so. Great selection of stuff,but as you say,very expensive. They were very reliable both times when i used them and everything came well packaged.
Yeah,dunno how they work out the prices,cos like you say,they are very expensive,but they way i looked at it,you're kinda treating yourself,so why not?! :D
I got (amongst other things),a cookie dough Chunky Kitkat...oh my...taste sensation!

I must say I wouldn't mind trying some of the US, Australian and Japanese stuff.
I wonder if Oz cadbury chocolate really is better than UK stuff? :)
I'm sure there was another candy/sweets website but I cant remember its name.

You must have to buy a few bars at least to make it worthwhile though.

I bought a few Aussie things cos i had an Aussie friend who was living here and she was missing her choccy bars. Violet Crumble,Cherry Ripe,Dairy Milk Malt Crisp,Cadburys Snack were a few of the ones i remember getting.
Think it came to around £15 or thereabouts.
I don't remember the chocolate tasting all that different to be honest.
I think i read somewhere that they use little or no animal fats in their chocolate or something like that and maybe that has something to do with the taste being different.

Yeah, I think I read that too - our Cadbury uses mostly vegetable oil or something and their Cadbury uses proper milk.

If you don't know someone in the relevant country check eBay first, often cheaper.
