Watching "Made in Great Britain" on York and the choco;ate industry reminded me of two favourites of yesteryear - Terry's Bitter Chocolate and Kunzle cakes.
As a kid in the 50's and 60's my grand-mother when I visited (virtually every week) - no added sugar or dairy and a pure chocolate taste. This gave me my lifetime preference for dark chocolate over milk choc.
My mother's favourite cakes were Kunzle Showboats which I also got addicted to. They were chocolate shells with spomge in and buttercream - J. Lyons & Co.
I;ve not seen either for many years - does anyone else share fond memories of these or any other chocs of that period
