~ Milk Tray ~

Advantages: Great variety, amazing tatses, luxury packaging
Disadvantages: price for some

...~ Milk Tray ~ Milk Tray chocolates are one of my favourite boxes you can buy from Cadbury?s. This week one of our colleagues brought a box in for us all to share. We usually have biscuit Fridays but this week it was chocolate. I only ever see boxes like this really at Christmas time. We never buy boxes otherwise and I hadn?t had Milk ray for years. Due to the demand and high quality the box was pretty much gone by noon. You have to be quick in this place, as soon as you?re offered you have to take one or you won?t get a chance. Even those on a diet can?t resist one of these cheeky choc?s. I am not a huge fan of chocolate myself, I mean I like the stuff but if I had to choose out of a bar of chocolate and sweets it wouldn?t be the chocolate. ~ Where did it come from? ~ The Milk Tray box is produced by the one...

Review of Cadbury Milk Tray

Cadbury Milk Tray!

Advantages: Yummy!!!!! Great for all occasions!
Disadvantages: None!

...Well like most girls Chocolate is my best friend, and although I love the posh chocs you can get from Thorntons and the likes, I think that Cadburys Milk Tray has to be my favourite, mainly cause they're all milk chocolate (i hate dark choc!!!) and there's a nice mixture of flavours. Milk Tray comes in a variety of sizes. The largest been 800g boxes then 400g boxes and the smallest been 200g boxes. The prices of these boxes vary depending on where you buy them from. The 800g boxes are gift boxes and are around £10 from the Cadbury Gift Site, the 400g boxes are around £5 a box and 200g boxes around £3, so they are relatively cheap for chocolates of a brand name. As I said the chocolates are all milk chocolate, and there is a variety of caramels, creams, pralines and plains. The chocolates are a great gift for any chocolate...

Just because my lady loves Milk Tray

Advantages: Good quality chocolate at a reasonable price
Disadvantages: Not so good for the waistline

...Call me an old romantic, but every week I buy my wife a box of chocolates, it's become a ritual over the last 36 years!! She isn't a lover of dark chocolate and Milk Tray is always well received. Now I want to add here that I don't climb in through the window an a tuxedo and leave the box on the bed - I'm not THAT romantic!! Milk Tray comes in a variety of sizes. The largest is 800g boxes then 400g boxes and the smallest b200g boxes. The prices of these boxes vary depending on where you buy them from. The 800g boxes are gift boxes and are around £10 from the Cadbury Gift Site, the 400g boxes are around £5 a box and 200g boxes around £3, so they are relatively cheap for chocolates of a brand name and chocolate of a good quality. All the cholocaltes are coveren in Cadburys milk chocolate, and there is a wide variety...

Review of Cadbury Milk Tray

Cadbury's Milk Tray - Brighten up someones day with a box of yumm

Advantages: Instant pickme up - tastes delicious
Disadvantages: Not too kind to the waistline

...I was recently given a box of cadburys milk tray chocolates as a belated christmas present off my mum. Packaging The box of cadburys milk tray chocolates is instantly recognisable by its deep luxurious purple colour. I don't know why but this is such a sexy colour and I have seen the tv adverts so I think it is maybe the idea of a dark handsome stranger going to such an effort of delivering me a box of chocolates and saying "All because the lady loves milk tray" as his tagline. There is the gold cadbury logo. Then there is some writing saying milk tray in a white handwritten style. The box itself is made of cardboard. The box has a lid which is easy to refasten after opening to stop your chocolates falling out of the box. Once the box is open you are met with a picture of all the chocolates that are contained in the box...

Review of Cadbury Milk Tray

Milk Tray? Milk Tat more like!

Advantages: cheap...
Disadvantages: ...it shows

...Oh you remember the adverts, how could you not? The man always dressed in a dinner jacket skiing over perilous pistes and swimming through shark infested waters and almost coming a cropper with a laser between the legs (or was that James Bond?). Anyway it seemed nothing would stop this man from delivering his precious cargo. And what, pray tell, was this precious cargo? Was it a human heart being rushed for transplant? The nuclear launch codes? What was it? A box of chocolates! But not just any old chocolate but Cadbury?s Milk Tray! And why did he go to such lengths to deliver a box of Milk Tray? Because the lady loved them. Or so we were told because he never stuck around long enough to see her enjoy them. But I digress. Christmas has been and the goose that we plumped up nicely has made us fat, so as we struggle to both...

Do the Ladies Love Milk Tray

Advantages: Smooth 12 different centres Tried & Tested
Disadvantages: A Bit Pricey

...I love a bit of trivia and I also happen to love chocolates. I have long wondered how many ladies would place receiving a nice box of chocolates for Valentine's Day, their Birthday ,their Anniversary,or for Christmas.among their fave presents. My guess is that the figures would be high ! Cadbury's,Britain's ever popular chocolate maker,have been producing nice.cool,velevety boxes of Milk Tray for yonks. I do believe they first came into production during the first world war and right up til today are exceptionally popular. Their huge sales prove that. Well go down to your local chocolatier or supermarket and the two most common sizes of these boxed chocolates seem to be the 227 gr and the 454 gr containers. The former will cost you between Stg3 - 3.50 pounds in the High street while the huge 454 gr box will retail at between Stg...

Review of Cadbury Milk Tray

Bumbo add-on. The Play Tray

Advantages: Easy to clean, good play surface for baby.
Disadvantages: Tricky to fit, can scratch the Bumbo

...The people from Bumbo have now developed a play tray to go with their innovative baby seat which mums and dads across the world thank their lucky stars for every day. Anything that looks like it is going to make the Bumbo experience more baby friendly should be a must-buy for any Bumbo owning parent. When my eldest was little the Bumbo Playtray was not around so when I bought one for my youngest a couple of months ago I bought the Playtray to go with it. It works by hooking over the front of the leg guard and sliding underneath the front of the Bumbo, using babys weight to keep it in place. Baby has to be sitting in the Bumbo before it can be fitted and it must be taken off before baby is taken out. Once fitted it provides a small, easy to clean surface for babys toys or finger foods. I have found that baby is much happier to sit...

Review of Gro Company Bumbo Play Tray

Food cube trays make feeding baby so simple!

Advantages: Ease of use
Disadvantages: Cost

...I just love the Annabel Karmel food cube trays and they have made weaning my baby (and feeding my 10 month old!) so much simpler. I first bought them when weaning my baby at 6 months. I started making the basic purees as recommended by Annabel Karmel and freezing them in these little trays. When frozen, I would turn them out of the trays into plastic food bags, and return to the freezer. This meant that when I needed a block of food, I could easily defrost & warm it up for an instant meal. Now that my baby is over 6 months old, I mix in a little whole milk to the warmed up food to make it creamier. I still use them with my 10 month old, and instead of purees, use them for mini meals e.g. mini cottage pies, bolognaise, rice puddings. In fact, anything I cook in surplus now gets put into these pots to freeze! WHY I WOULD RECOMMEND...

Review of Annabel Karmel Food Cube Trays with Lids

Annabel Karmel food trays

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Too time consuming to wash and remove frozen food from

...Bought these to freeze larger batches of fruit and veg for my growing wee one. They were fine up until I came to remove the frozen portions which would not come out of the tray.Due to the tray being almost rubber like in construction, I could not manipulate the food portions to pop free. The sides are too deep and too flexible, meaning I had try to pull the sides back on each individual cube to get the food out. After about 20 minutes (time which busy Mums don't have) of fingernail bending I took a pair of scissors to cut the food free. I will go back to my rigid, lidded, smaller cube trays and take out several smaller portions as baby eats more, progressing on to tot pots for freezing. These trays are NOT dishwasher safe however can be sterilized in a cold water solution. I bought 2 boxes and will not be opening the other one....

Mmm! milk tray simply irresistable UPDATE!!

Advantages: Great selection of treats, great to share, good gift idea, cheap
Disadvantages: fattening, dont last long enough

...now one of the biggest factories in Britain. In 1899 Richard died at the age of 63 leaving George to become chairman of the board. Also in 1899 the factory trebled in size and the business began to expand. There were now 4 factories each with over 2000 employees. Production of the MIlk Tray Soon after saw the introduction of the milk tray in 1915. The name 'Tray' derived from the way in which the original assortment was delivered to the shops. Originally Milk Tray was packed in five and a half pound boxes, arranged on trays from which it was sold loose to customers. The half-pound box was intorduced in 1916 while the one pound box was introduced later in 1924. With its stylish presentation, Milk Tray was the assortment for everyday, not just special occasions, and represented the best buy in chocolates for millions of people. The pack...
