    I forget I'm a total dinosaur on here!! But besides Wispa and Wispa Gold, Wispa's had a couple of variations (not counting Kingsize/duo):




    Wispa Mint: Wispa with mint crisp.



    Wispaccino: Wispa with coffee and caramel.



    Wispa Bite: Wispa with caramel and shortcake.

    That's the one!! This was the era when the Shortcake flourished; my "Go-To" was always a Wispa Bite, Astros, Boost or Cadbury Snack.

    Then Wispa and Astros died here in the UK.

    So began the great shortcake depression and subsequently the Caramel invasion.

    Man, this was one of the BEST Kit Kat variants. I think they were on the shelves for all of three weeks or something. We got ONE multipack in their entire existence and I'm so saddened that I never savoured them as much as I should've.



    I fear the White Choc Kit Kat Chunky Champion contender will suffer the same fate for me (despite me stocking up on those).

    Okay, so I couldn't care less what happens to the Cadbury's Spots and Stripes bar of boring, but Cadbury's Big Race Bar is genuinely one of my favourite oddball bars. I mean, wafer, chocolate cream, shortcake bits, dairy milk... it's like a big Tunnocks Wafer Boost Kit Kat Orgy. AMAZING.



    And now, they are officially out of production. If you like them, I'd buy whatever leftover ones you find floating in the ether...

    I loved that advert, and the biscuits of course
    They have them in France though (at least they did when I went there about 4 years ago), I made sure to buy as many packs as I could take home
