Cadbury Flakes are proving to be too flaky for the classic ice cream 99s. A shift in production to Egypt has left vendors complaining the choccy sticks are "too crumbly" to be used in the summertime favourite.
According to The Express, the chocolate-making giant's parent company Mondelēz International claims the issues have now been addressed. However, it warned older stock might still be in circulation.
John Taylor, owner of C&M Creamery Ices, claims he is being left "embarrassed" by the quality of the flakes he is having to sell. He told the BBC: "You can't give someone a 99 with a broken Flake. It's embarrassing for an ice cream man."
