Return of the Wispa

I had an email a little while back from the A Quarter Of... website mailing list.


It's a website that sells sweets - a good place to get hold of Wham and Stinger bars and things like that. Anyway, the email was to say that the Wispa was going back on sale:


And Cadburys are saying that they are bringing it back because of public demand… and in particular demand off the internet… which got us thinking…

PS Stop Press... apparently the 'return' of Wispa is not totally what it seemed... it will just be a limited edition from what we hear. Cadbury's have made 23 million bars and that's it. It's better than nothing I suppose... but not quite the "bowing to public demand" that it initially seemed... unless the public demanded that they could just re-enjoy Wispa for 6 or 8 weeks! Just a PR ploy? You might think that... I couldn't possibly comment!

Anyway, you can get your Wispa bars now, from A Quarter Of... (other confectionery sellers are available).

Never liked wispas - odd texture, they stuck to the roof of your mouth.

There used to be a roll-thing that had fuge-type stuff in the middle surrounded by toffee rolled in peanuts. Now if I could remember what it was called I would start a campaign to bring that back...

I don't remember those ones... but I liked Wispas and also Spiras, would like those back.

Matt, I have located a Haringey Wispa stockpile! Y'know where the Maid of Muswell pub is on Ally Park Road? Go over the crossing from the pub and turn left. Eros's shop a couple of doors past the Chinese sells them.

Though you better get there quick because I'm looking under the cushions for all the change I can muster...

Brilliant, ta - and less than 10 mins walk from my flat, know it well.
