Do you like chocolate?

Why not make the most of some free chocolate treats?

Whether it’s a Mars Bar, a slab of Dairy Milk or a Boost that’s your ideal choccy bar, chocolate is one of the most purchased treats on the plant. In this country alone, the yearly spend on chocolate bars is three billion pounds, thats 3 thousand million pounds! The bulk of this is bought from the big 3 manufacturers, Cadbury Schweppes, Roundtree and Nestle.

The most purchased chocolate bars are Dairy Milk (Milk Chocolate), Snickers, Kit Kat, Dairy Milk (Fruit), Boost, Mars, Dairy Milk (Caramel), Toffee Crisp, Twix, Lion Bar, Crunchie and Twirl. Additionally, there are specific extras such as Wispa and Creme Egg which are available seasonally or made for limited times.

In recent times, the success of mini bars has risen hugely, especially around the winter season. A great example, Mars Celebrations can be purchased in huge tins approaching the festive period, and commonly fly off the shelves in the run up to Christmas as demand is that high. Many houses will have plenty of chocolate waiting for guests and family occasions at this holiday and celebration time.

Worries about the population’s eating habits come to the headlines of the media from time to time, and as a result, chocolate manufacturers have brought in schemes such as Treatwise to increase customer awareness of the nutritional value of their treats.

Adverts on the Television might be fast to insinuate that chocolate is rich in calcium, which we all remember is great for bones and teeth, however a quick look at the packaging identifies the inclusion of fat and sugar to highlight a couple. Of course, everything in moderation is generally considered as good guidance, and chocolate bars are no different. Awareness is the key, and the chocolate makers can’t be accused of trying to hide the facts, even if their advertising agencies are successful in their jobs of highlighting product benefits al the expense of faults.

Order your free chocolate today, or if healthy snacking is more your bag, why not try out a free fruitbox?
