Psst.... want to be the first to taste a brand new chocolate?

Cadburys sent me some chocolate! And I have 10 packs of two bars to GIVEAWAY!!!!!! YIIIPPPEEEE!!! And best of all, I have just recently learnt that they are no longer using palm oil.

I would normally not do this kind of thing as Cadburys is such a well, multinational and well, I generally try to avoid these kinds of companies because they are so well, big. I haven't eaten, or even set foot inside of a McD****** or K*C since 1994. Seriously I haven't. Not even to use the bathroom. So I did have a good think about if I wanted to do this..... and I thought after all these years: LIGHTEN UP CATH! It is just chocolate and I want you guys to have some too!

 Anyway here is my honest review. I didn't get paid for this I just got a bar of each plus the chance to giveaway 10 packs of each bar.
It is called Bar of Plenty and it comes in two flavours: Berry Fruit, Vanilla Shortcake & Chocolate, and the other is Roast Hazelnut, Honey Roast Cashews and Chocolate.

The first thing I like about it is the size. It is 190g so you could buy this instead of a family block, (because if I am honest if Chef and I open a family block there is generally not much ( ahem...any) left and then I get annoyed at myself because I ate so much chocolate) the family block is 350g- just so you get the comparison. ( I didn't actually know this off the top of my head I did have to look it up)

So here is what it looks like:

This is the nut one:

This is how it tastes:
We do love a nut in chocolate so I had already decided I would like this before I tasted it. As Chef just said " we are nut people" so we were loving the nut, and I actually could taste the cashews and the hazelnuts. It was really good. I would buy it again. Thumbs up for the nut one. Chef says: We are nuts.

This is the berry one:
I think this one sounds so much better than it tastes. To be honest I couldn't really taste berry fruit and vanilla shortcake at all, Chef says he could. But he is a Chef. The actual name of the flavour doesn't really appeal to me and I didn't think it tasted to exciting. I probably wouldn't buy this one.
So you want to make up your own mind right?

You need to leave a comment telling me the first thing that comes into your mind when you see chocolate. I think it has a lot of meaning attached to it particularly for women so the first thing you might think of is guilt, naughtiness, etc... get me?
Good luck, you have until this Thursday night to enter. I will annouce the winner on Friday.
