More Cadbury Chocolate Please!

Cadbury? Rei is tempted.... 

I was fortunate enough to have won a runner up place in the Nuffnang and Cadbury Guardians of The Galaxy Movie Premiere Blog Contest :) You can read on my blog post here.

While this happened way back in August - we were only able to pick up my prize which has been waiting for me in the Nuffnang offices since winning the contest last November - during Thanksgiving long weekend.

My prize was two boxes of Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolate - in different sizes! ^_^ The grand prize was actually an iPad mini. :) - I know! Cadbury is just so damn generous! :)

Well - with all of these chocolate goodies - we made sure to give to our family and friends. Now Paul's nephew is also a Cabury monster like him. When I asked him what he wanted for Christmas he told me it starts with the the letter "C".

I tried to guess with 'Cash?' or 'Cards? - (playing cards - Cardfight Vanguard) but then he says:
"No. I'm thinking if I want Cadbury for Christmas" - True Story :)

Thank you again for this Sweet Ending Cadbury! :)

Rei is stuck in an avalanche of Cadbury - now I wouldn't mind being stuck in one of those! :P

"Chocolate Pa More!" New French Inspired Flavors from Cadbury!

"Chocolate Pa More!" 

The crowd screamed and cheered minutes before the #CadburySweetEnding screening of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 (Movie Review here by the way) I think it was from the sugar rush and I don't think anyone had any chocolate yet but the thought of bringing home boxes of Cadbury chocolate and getting to try out their new Limited Edition French inspired flavors got everyone in the room on a sugar high. 

Wait-What?? New French Inspired flavors from Cadbury?! 

Yes! You read that right! Cadbury is making something good-better by mixing up their signature Dairy Milk Creamy Chocolate with French inspired flavors - French Vanilla and Chocolate Mousse! 

These Limited addition flavors should already be available in your nearest grocery stores and I definitely recommend that you try them! (Only for P180.00! For a quick taste of French culture) My #CadburyBarkada and I are #TeamFrenchVanilla and you could definitely taste that sweet and unique Vanilla taste in your mouth as you discover the vanilla cream nestled within Cadbury's Dairy Milk Chocolate. ^_^

Team French Vanilla! For Cadbury Sweet Endings

Cadbury has always been one of my favorite chocolates, since I don't eat nuts and fruits with chocolate, Cadbury's creamy chocolate is just perfect! 

Another thing that I love about it is that it's affordable and I can just get it for like p14.00 and I can buy it from any convenient store and since I work the night shift, having this yummy chocolate bar available at any time of the day is a big stress reliever! 

I actually have a funny story about a Cadbury bar which just happened recently, so I bought a bar of Cadbury chocolate and when I went back to the office and my team mates saw me with the Cadbury bar, they collectively thought that I was going to offer them a piece of Cadbury chocolate. They were both surprised and disappointed I guess when I was a bit selfish and finished the entire bar of Cadbury chocolate all by myself. :p They still give me a hard time and make fun of me when they tease me about it. 

Okay - so I kind of feel guilty for not sharing my Cadbury Sweet Ending with my team mates so it's a good thing that Cadbury is coming out with new French inspired flavors to make that Cadbury Sweet Ending extra special! 

I've always admired Japanese culture but there is always something appealing, regal and beautiful with the French culture, most especially their food which has been regarded as the the source of many cooking techniques and this of course means yummy desserts too! 

So I'm more than glad that one of my favorite chocolate bars is incorporating French flavors to it's new line of Chocolate flavors and I'm just excited to share the new French Vanilla Cadbury to my team mates (so they'll forget that I ever was selfish with chocolate :p ) 

That light exquisite taste of Vanilla cream inside the smooth and delicious chocolate of Cadbury is a sure way for my team mates to forgive me :p The exquisite Vanilla taste will surely transport anyone to the beautiful city of Paris and will make you dream of Starry Nights and the beautiful Eifel Tower - now I've never been to Paris but Cadbury French Vanilla will definitely bring me closer to the city of Love and I'll be sure to share this Cadbury Sweet Ending with my Cadbury Barkada! ^_^ 

Let's just say we're a bit excited with Cadbury French Vanilla so we had a little French inspired Photoshoot recently, now I didn't want to just use photoshop and put the Eifel Tower behind us so I thought long and hard and then inspiration struck - why not take a photo in Rue Bourbon?!

Rue Bourbon is Bourbon Street in French, I know this from reading one of the best French novels of all time; Victor Hugo's Les Miserables (which is in my top 10 books). In the novel, the French word "Rue" was used to denote to streets. 

So - hands down this place definitely reminds me a bit of Paris and the French culture; it's a good thing that it's near the office! We even had scarves and a beret to complete our French look! Now to get my teeth into some Cadbury French Vanilla to complete this Cadbury Sweet Ending- French Edition! ^_^

Cadbury Sweet Endings

Box Of  Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolates! Now that is a Sweet Ending Indeed! 

I am the type of person who thrives on desserts, it is something I always look forward to at the end of a meal. I've probably already mentioned that I'm very picky when it comes to food, so dessert to me is only chocolate and the rich and creamy chocolate of Cadbury is always a favorite. 

I just love that the smooth and creamy chocolate of Cadbury Daily Milk always brings sweet endings; whether it is an end to a stressful day at work or a an end to a challenging task you have just accomplished. 

The world today is filled with deadlines, rushing to get from one place to the next to accomplish one task after another (trust me - Paul and I are oftentimes like headless chicken, running around the Metro when we have back-to-back events and work to juggle) but we make it a point to savor the little things in life as much as we can and even a little piece of Cadbury Milk Chocolate can give us that Sweet Ending we all look forward to.   

It's funny how one small bar of chocolate can teach us how to Stop! Take a pause and really, savor that creamy milky goodness of life (and chocolate-of course). How? Well - you just follow the 4 easy steps below on how to enjoy the Smooth & Creamy Cadbury Dairy Milk. 

1. Rip - the packaging, builds up the anticipation. 
2. Bite - into the creamy goodness that can only be Cadbury. 
3. Mmelt - it in your mouth, I think it's important to take note not to CHEW into it as this hastens the sweet ending experience that comes with every bar of Cadbury. Kind of like ruining the moment. So take time for it to melt in your mouth so you can really enjoy that milky goodness. 
4. Enjoy - the last step is to simply enjoy it :) 

Cadbury is pulling out all the stops to give us that Sweet Ending we all crave and look forward to. They have partnered with Mc Donald's, Bon Chon Chicken and KFC so you can finish your meals with a smooth and creamy Cadbury Daily Milk. How does a Dairy Queen with Cadbury Dairy Milk Fruit & Nut sound?

Sweet Endings with My Cadbury Barkada

While every story may begin with 'Once Upon A Time' there's no guarantee that it will end with a Sweet Ending or 'Happily Ever After' but I think that's where the magic comes in, that is where your will power to make things better comes in. 

For example...today, my alarm didn't go off and Paul and I were late for work for about an hour and that meant having to catch up with all of the reports I send out. Aside from that I was also nursing a really annoying dry cough. But I didn't let any of that get me down and I told myself that I just had to get through this day and that there was something sweet waiting for me at the end of the day. So I decided to treat myself to a bar of Cadbury Dairy Milk screw the cough :P 

Munching into the milky goodness of Cadbury Dairy Milk is a sweet ending, my best friend and always barkada Paul and I look forward to. :) 

So no matter if you had a rough start in your day... Once upon a time, my alarm didn't go off and I was late for work and I was also sick... it can always end with a bar of Cadbury Dairy Milk and that will always be a Sweet Ending no matter what! :)
