Absolutely awful..! I have not had these for a while due to the changes in the flavours, and apparently the Uk Cadbury Co are using palm oils etc these days.. can honestly say that after receiving these as a gift, that I would NEVER have these again, they are waxy and ‘greasy’ and the centres are horrible..! What a shame that a country once famed… Read more
for some of the best chocolate, is now producing such utter garbage. Honestly, they are vile and not what you would associate with Cadbury years ago.. shame on you
I used to love milk tray, I've just had three from a Christmas present box. What's the brown wax covering? Surely not chocolate. What a cheap tasting waxy substance... Yuk! And where's the yummy strawberry flavour. I'll be certain not to ask for this again. Cadbury has slowly ruined it's entire range. I'll pop the rest of the box on the fire, it's not worth eating the calories Show details
Absolutel sh!te. Plastic looking and chemically aftertaste. Doesn't taste like it used to. Less choclately. Had a few then threw the rest away. If i could do negative stars i would.

Horrible. They ruined them – Over sweet. Oily. And the orange one? You wouldn’t even know it was meant to be orange. Show details
Foul tasting milk tray chocolates – It looks like previous reviews are from Australia, but these are from the UK. I had a chocolate out of a friend's box, it tasted bad, no one else said anything so I thought it was just me, or I thought maybe out of date. Then I got a box as a thank you present, tasted a few, they all taste the same- as mentioned in the other reviews, some kind of… Read more
chemical taste, I had to spit the last one out. Then someone gave me a box for my birthday. It's unopened, no point giving it to someone else if they taste so bad. You can smell it as well. What is wrong with them??

Absolutely Awful waste of money & Disappointing – Absolutely Awful No soft centres I know the Lime barrel was discontinued years ago but where has the taste gone? Whomever thinks this is progress lol Bring back the originals! Show details
The new Milk Tray chocolates were so disappointing – Horrible. Non of our favourites at all. New centres were awful. So disappointing. I have put the box and uneaten chocolates into the bin.
Not the Milk Tray i remembered – Great box , terrible chocolates. i bought a box for the first time in years. No coffee cream, no strawberry cream or orange chocolates. A variation on caramel and hazelnut chocolate. Not a nice tasting chocolate and won’t be buying another box. Show details
Disgusting – What happened to Cadbury? Big corporate greed is what happened! These chocolates , like all other Cadbury chocolate is disgusting low quality. Just like Arnott's biscuits & twisties ..there all crap now.
Good the bad now disgusting – WHAT HAVE YOU Done these chocolates are nasty if you can't make chocolates better don't bother, give us back some creams take out the truffles and give us better chocolate if I got these as a present I'd happily return to sender Show details
Just awful – Horrible, greasy, oily, chocolate, hard nasty centres. Just absolutely awful. Limited flavors and choice make this the chocolate box to avoid If NO STARs were an option this would get minus stars.

Not at all like they used to be – Poor choice of individual chocs. All taste the same, sickly sweet. Where has the variety gone? Quality of the chocolate is poor. Show details
Diagusting – Used to be my favourites but not anymore , all the old favourites are missing and the chocolates all taste the same (Vile) they leave a strange taste in your mouth ,I will never purchase them again ! Show details
This is a disgusting example of a box of chocolates – Something completely lacking in quality here. The chocolate is awful, almost tasteless and poor quality, and the filling is just sweet, no actual flavor to it. Straight in the bin for me Show details
Thé old taste of Cadbury milk tray is long gone – This product no longer tastes like chocolate for quite some time. Very oil and sugar based , difficult to consume without retching. I now bin them if I get them as a gift. It is such a shame as they were such a great brand. Show details
Oh my God what did they do – Cadbury used to be my favourite chocolate. Just bought myself a milk tray for the first time in many years and it is AWFUL. Not only are all my favourites missing but the new ones all taste almost the same as each other and are so gross... they're like eating sweet oil or something with a sour after taste. The raspberries and cream chocolate… Read more
actually tastes like vomit... I believe it may be the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted. I'm sure they can't be actually selling a lot of these... right?
Chemical taste what have they done? – Cadbury Milk Tray never use to be horrible. My wife opened them and said this taste funny so I tried it and we both said at the same time it's a chemical taste! Probably changed something to make it cheaper in our current climate. All about the £££ rather than pleasing the consumer. I'm just glad we had Mars Celebrations for Christmas rather than Cadburys!

One star too many – I can’t believe how disgusting these chocolates were! Such a disappointment! A few were spat down the sink, a few were bitten in half and ended with dry retching. Not sure if Cadbury is out there reading these reviews but can someone please remove this product from the shelves I feel sorry for the poor people who will buy these unknowingly!! Show details
Horrible – One star is too many. These were made in Poland from ingredients from various sources. I would like to know the various sources because these chocolates were not nice. Milk Tray used to be one of my favourites, not any more. Show details
Purchased for my wife but they taste disgusting – I purchased milk tray for my wife and she only tried one then put the rest in the bin. Disgusting new taste. Do not trust and we will never buy again, I think they have bleach in them Show details

Disgusting flavour – My goodness what's going on at Cadbury! These chocolates taste disgusting. Taste of chemicals. I am sending them back! Will never buy them again Show details
Every chocolate in this box has the same flavour. That flavour being chemical – I tried a few and they all have a bad chemical taste to them and I had to spit them out. They aren't just not nice they are inedible. I hope I can return them to Woolworths to get my money back otherwise I will have to contact Cadbury customer service. Show details
These are not chocolate – Just purchased a 360gram box of milk tray and was looking forward to settle down with a nice coffee and a couple of chocolates. Absolutely horrible, doesn't taste anything like a quality sweet. The cheapest chocolate from any of the other manufacturers beats these hands down. I would go as far as to say they're inedible, only fit for the bin. I… Read more
checked the sell by date to see if they were out of date, nope all good there. So disappointed, I used to love cadbury chocolate, done the factory tour etc. Whoever cadbury pay for testing, is getting paid under false pretences. I cannot believe that they think this product passes the taste test.the sell by date is23/04/2023. Owro122533. Cmon cadbury, sort this out
Awful – Hubby gave me a yummy box of Cadbury milk tray as they are my favourite, however FAR from yummy, in fact they all taste awful! Almost like plastic?! Very disappointing. Show details
Just treated my self to a box of milk tray don't bother – This is a box of cheap rubbish consisting of praline and pretend truffle this isn't Cadbury anymore there are much more superior brands out there goodbye Cadbury you just lost a customer of 60 years never again will I buy your cheap made rubbish . Show details
Gross! – Forked out for my traditional holiday box of Cadbury chocolates but super disappointed. At first I thought they must be off. They have a very strange chemical taste and are sickly sweet. I couldnt give them away - noone liked them. Ive never not liked chocolate - I’ll even eat the cheap stuff. These went in the bin. Show details
Disgusting! – They taste disgusting. The first one that I tasted I thought might have just been something about that particular item - it tasted terrible - but then tried another - equally disgusting. Ergghhh! Not at all the Cadbury Milk Tray chocolates that I remember. Made me feel ill. Where were they made? How were they made!! What the heck is in it!! … Read more
Some inedible gunk!! How could Cadbury ask money for this! I'm sworn off all Cadbury products after this. I don't have any faith in their products now. No more Cadbury anything! Not consumable and totally unpleasant. and very concerning. I think I should have compensation for the horrid experience! Note: I rarely post any reviews but was motivated to seek to relate my disgust at this product. Errgghhh!!!
What's happened to Milk Tray? – I had a box a few weeks ago and they had a chemically after taste, noone else noticed but it was so strong. I thought It was just me because my husband and kids didn't notice. My mum has just been gifted a box after an operation and mentioned she couldn't eat them because they had a weird after taste. Completely different box, bought at a different time from a different place.
