We may have just got through the mega-chocfest of Easter but I still couldn't help getting excited about this funky and iconically British range of new chocolate treats from Thorntons. I want them all ! Hmmm banana and custard recreated in a bar of chocolate - sounds utterly divine ! Now, I'm ashamed to say that - despite hailing from Hastings - I have no idea what a Lemon Sussex Pond is so I will definitely have to investigate that one, just to complete my education of all things local, you understand !!

British
summertime is now upon us, and with it comes the promise of an exciting
and unforgettable season. With the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, Euro 2012,
Wimbledon and the 2012 Olympics just around the corner, Britain’s best
loved chocolate company Thorntons is celebrating Britain’s big year with
the launch of its new Best
of British range. Hitting the shelves in May and available all summer,
the range celebrates everything it means to be British this year.
Wave
the flag for Great Britain this summer with one of Thorntons' delicious
chocolate flags. Decorated with mouth-watering white and dark
chocolate, this chocolate Union Jack plaque is the ultimate British
memento for 2012.
Back
by popular demand, Thorntons' Bakewell Tart Chocolate Block has
returned to shelves alongside a new addition to the range. The limited
edition Banana and Custard Chocolate Block has been inspired by the
traditional and much-loved pudding. A nod back to childhood puddings,
the chocolate block features crispy banana pieces combined with smooth
white chocolate and custard essence to recreate this classic favourite.
Nothing
is more synonymous with Great Britain than the classic London
double-decker bus. Thorntons’ milk chocolate representation is sure to
be a bestseller this summer - the perfect patriotic present, or even
just a treat for yourself.
Want
to try something a little different this summer? Thorntons talented
chocolatiers have recreated some classic British puddings – in
chocolate! Regress
to the dessert delights of your childhood in the Thorntons Servery with

ReplyDeleteThese all sound great although I like the other comments I think Bananas and Custard Choc Block sounds the best. Ive just taken a look at the Thorntons website and can't see these yet but will definitely keep my eye out and buy some when they are available. Thanks for posting
