Cadbury's Skippy

This Memory is looking a little short on nostalgia! Have you got anything you could add?

Cadbury's Skippy was a long wafer biscuit covered with Cadbury's chocolate and contained a hard chewy strip of toffee within the centre of the wafer. The packaging for Cadbury's Skippy was blue with distinctive red and yellow writing. It was really chewy!

    Ok so I’ve just found this platform and I don’t know what put Skippy in my mind at this precise moment but yes I’m nearly 66 and I kid you not but I often think about Skippy the biscuit . I lived it. We weren’t allowed/couldn’t afford a lot of chocolate back then but if I close my eyes I can imagine eating a Skippy, loved them :)

    As a school boy in the early sixties I spent my summer holiday mornings reading novels like 'She' and the Alan Quarterrmain series. Even then I had a jug of instant coffee and couple of Skippy bars. Even after aĺ this time I can still feel the chewy texture and flavour! Oh to be back......

    I loved Skippy. There is nothing like them now - the nearest thing is Lion Bar, but it's not the same. You could really pull all your fillings out with a Skippy. Bring it back, I say!

      I remember Cadbury kept them in the Selection Boxes for do.e years after they disappeared from shops. Then they were brought back in shops, I recall (may be late 80s or 90s) but the return was short lived - shame, I loved them. Anyone remembrr Nux bars?
