AeroName: Aero  I’ve seen these bars before, usually in import stores, and as I recall I picked up one or something similar in London when I was there. It’s basically a milk chocolate Nestle bar that’s been whipped into a froth and then quickly molded into a bar. It creates a bit of a lighter feeling treat than a dense chocolate bar.
Note that because of the bubbles, I suspect that it’s a little more prone to softening in the summer warmth than other bars, so you might want to store this one in the fridge. In fact, I’ve heard that some folks prefer it that way. On the whole, it was a pleasant bar. The chocolate is very milky, as European chocolate usually is and if you like that, you won’t be disappointed. I find European milk chocolate tastes a little like powdered milk to me which is not an entirely pleasant reminder. My rating: 6 out of 10. See also - taquitos.net review. POSTED BY Cybele AT 5:19 pm

What’s amazing about this is when you look at the bar unwrapped, it looks like a king sized bar, but it weighs about the same as a regular bar. It’s overwhelmingly sweet and chocolately smelling. Upon biting into it, it yields easily, more like marshmallow or fudge than chocolate. In fact, that’s what it resembles most to me, fudge. It’s definitely very chocolatey, a little sticky feeling in the mouth, but because of all the air, it melts fast, bursting on the tongue.

mmm aero… have u tried the mint aero?
” it melts fast, bursting on the tongue”
I guess that answers the question posed by the wrapper! Not sure if you felt that was good or bad, though!
Wow, this looks so good. And mint aero? Imma hit my local Cost Plus looking for this one soon.
we have those in canada too.
I live in the UK and we get these everywhere. We get many different flavours: Normal, mint, orange, honeycombe and white and normal chocolate together. Yumm!
This is the closest thing available to the long-discontinued Nestle Choc-o-Lite bar of the 70s.
The mint Aero ROCKS!
Mint Aero is sex in a wrapper. Happens to be my favorite chocolate bar. Glorious.
candy
If you like this kind of candy, please try a Cadbury Flake bar if you see them. It is that sweet, milky Cadbury chocolate in thin sheets all rolled into a bar. Fab texture.
i would like o point out we did have an aried bar in the US, it was called WISPA and didnt last very long, i did see them in the UK a while ago thou.
I had to buy them a few years ago when i went to canada.Now they sell them at the local krogers in the U.S.
The WISPA bar is the Cadbury version of the aero and was introduced in 1981. It was discontinued in its original form in 2003 and renamed Dairy Milk Bubbly but after much opposition and petitioning, the Wispa was re released and after a trial is back on UK shelves for good as of last october. The Bubbly was no where near as popular.
It far outsells the aero 3 times over and is something of an icon in Britain. It also came in a caramel variety (being re released as a limited edition in september) called Wispa Gold, a mint one called Wispa Mint , a Biscuity one caled Wispa bite and a coffee one called Wispacino.
I didn’t know these had once been available in the US. Cadburys don’t use powdered milk as most opponents do (inc nestle) just fresh dairy milk hence the delicous unique fresh creamy taste that UK dairy milk is associated with and loved for across the world. Wispas are gorgeous!
