Terry’s Chocolate Orange have tried to switch things up by bringing out a new flavour of their iconic citrus-shaped snack, but a lot of fans aren’t having any of it.

...

Its quality and deliciousness has remained tried and trusted throughout the years, but that hasn’t stopped Carambarco – the manufacturer behind the brand – from experimenting with different flavours and concepts.

...

Then, in 2023, Terry’s went beyond the original orange flavour for the first time ever, bringing out the Terry’s Chocolate Mint ball.

...

This week, however, shoppers have been left outraged after a new variation appeared in B&M stores across the country.

Introducing the Terry’s ‘Chocolate Milk’ without the orange.

Naturally, fans of the cult classic treat were outraged – and many were left wondering whether there was any point in it without the key ingredient.

The alternative to dairy milk is either a different milk like goat milk (which is why American chocolate tastes the way it does) or some emulsified oil like palm oil. Neither are great and would make a noticeably poorer chocolate.

Not necessarily. I have had plenty of very good chocolate that uses cocoa butter and/or plant milks like oat milk in place of dairy. Or they could make their dark chocolate orange without milk with little to no difference in taste and texture.

What do all the vegan chocolate brands use? I assumed oat, but now I realise I may be wrong.
