Crumble

Interesting news today that Aussie chocolate favourite Violet Crumble will once again become Aussie owned. Confectionery giant Nestle has sold the brand they had owned since 1989 (following their acquisition of Rowntree's). I guess they want to concentrate on their global brands. Oddly the news first seems to have been announced to UK media, rather than DownUnder...

Have to admit to being quite partial- despite appearance it is quite different to the better known Cadbury Crunchie bar- and occasionally I treat myself from a local importer, although over here a bar is relatively expensive.

Here's a light hearted advert via YouTube from the 1990's, featuring a well known actor from the Aussie soap Neighbours.
