Galaxy Counters - 78g

Galaxy sits at the smooth end of the British chocolate shelf, the one people reach for when they want silk rather than snap. Counters take that same chocolate and turn it into something you can share, or at least claim you are sharing.

People in Canada come looking for these because the taste is tied to somewhere very particular: a sofa back home, a motorway services, a Saturday night with the telly on. A memory that specific asks for the exact bag, and this is it.

The 78g pouch is a good handful for two or a generous one for one, and it folds over neatly if you show restraint. Keep it somewhere cool and dry, out of the sun, unless you fancy one large Counter. It goes in a lunchbox, a coat pocket, or a bowl on the table for film night.

The Galaxy family in Britain runs from the plain bar to Minstrels and Galaxy Caramel, and Counters tend to end up in the basket next to a few other things from the British sweets shelf. It is rarely just the one bag.
