Traumatised by the green coffee Roses? You are not alone

They’re still there, and they’re not going away.

LAST DECEMBER, WE brought you the disturbing news that Cadbury had ditched the green caramel in the Roses box and replaced it with… a coffee one.

There was widespread horror at the change, which the company claimed was due to “public demand”.

And sadly, this year is no different. Fresh waves of chocolate lovers are making the terrible discovery, one by one, alone.

Whoops!

Anger is still simmering.

Whoever decided to change the green sweet in a tin of roses to a coffee flavoured lump of disappointment, you shud be ashamed of yourself...

But even that can’t help you deal with the coffee ones left in the tin. There is no way out.

All we can do is stick together and stay strong, for the sake of the Signature Truffle.
