Candy Review: Nestle Drifter Bar

Nestle Drifter

According to the Nestle UK website, the Nestle Drifter bar has two slogans: “Too much chew for one bar” and “Chewier than the average chocolate bar”. I would like to propose one more: “The chew that stays with you”. Seriously. This thing is everlasting. It refuses to die. It’s a bit of a Zombie Twix, if you will.

The bar itself is delicious: crispy wafers, light Nestle chocolate, and gobs of caramel, but the construction of the bar leaves something to be desired, causing the Drifter to stick around long after the shiny purple wrapper has been emptied. As soon as I put the Drifter into my mouth, the caramel instantly separated from the rest of the bar and found its way into the deepest crevices of my molars, where, I believe, it still remains to this day. Perhaps this is a bonus for some people: eat one on a Monday and enjoy it all week long! But after about an hour of trying to unhinge my jaw, I decided that one Drifter was enough for me.

Still, there’s an upside: I can probably eat as much candy as I want from here on out and never worry about losing my teeth. The Drifter has them locked in caramel goodness: they aren’t going anywhere.

  1. Meh, Drifter’s really aren’t that good. I must ask though, why do you have separate tags for UK and Britain? The only reason I can think of is for search engines, so…a confirmation, please?

  2. I wonder if you got a stale one? I have had many a Drifter in my day (not Engligh, just a fan of their candy) and never experienced anything like your caramel experience.

  3. I really don’t know about the tags.

    It’s possible that I got a stale one, I suppose. I’ll have to give it another go, eh?
