Galaxy Milk Block - 360g

In Britain, Galaxy is part of the furniture. It is in the corner shop, the petrol station, the cinema queue and the meal deal, and it has spent decades being sold on one idea: smoothness. Ask someone to pick a bar for a night in and a good few of them will say Galaxy before you finish the question.

People in Canada search for it by name because they know exactly what they are after. It is the bar from the sofa on a Sunday, from the bag on the train home, from the cupboard at a grandparent's house. Nothing else scratches quite that itch.

This is the large block, so it breaks down into plenty of squares and lasts a while if you have the willpower. Keep it somewhere cool and out of the sun, or in the fridge if you like it with a snap. Some people chop it into brownies, which feels like a waste of good squares, but nobody complains at the plate.

It rarely goes home alone. Most people put it in the basket next to a box of proper British tea and a packet of biscuits, which is a full evening sorted.
