Cadbury's Roses - Which do you eat first? - Food and Drink

24-12-2007, 21:14

Tis the season after all,for giant tins of chocolate. So here's my question. Upon opening a tin of Roses, which sweet do you go for first?

Or if you prefer Quality Street, which one of those do you go for first?

Strawberry dream or hazelnut whirl.

i'm always more than happy to solve the 'left over coffee ones' problem

falconry-fan · 24-12-2007, 21:41

I love coffee creams too, but they stopped making them years ago in tins of Roses and QS.

They were my favourites

I don't know why they did that.

Me too, although actually I love them all

Haven't had roses in a while, quality streets I like the orange creams and the other orange ones and also the coconut eclairs

flicker · 24-12-2007, 21:56

The ones with the nut in the soft caramel. Mauve wrappers. Yum.

Hogs Head · 24-12-2007, 21:58

Always the strawberry dreams. Then I go for the long yellow ones, gorgeous!

I also like the lovely soft ones with the caramel in the middle - I think they're the ones with the blue wrapper and the little red roses over it!

maudie · 24-12-2007, 22:03

I like the green foil trangular ones

The strawberry ones and I'm partial to the caramel keg too.

maudie · 24-12-2007, 22:13

Why am I a wierdo? they are covered in green foil paper!

RootsFran · 24-12-2007, 22:24

I like the praline stick things in Roses and in QS the green triangles and caramel cups. I hate strawberry things.

I like the orange/strawberry creams......also turkish delight & coconut ones, oh & the big purple one.

In fact any of them except the coffee creams. Bleurgh

I wish QS would go back to the original ones......I used to love the praline & fudge ones.

quackaquacka · 25-12-2007, 13:30

Anything with praline or hazelnut, coffee, orange or strawberry.

Then the fudge.

Then whatever's left.

Has to be the strawberry one for me. Absolute luxury.
