No, but you get 'dairy milk with bubbles', which is almost identical in taste and texture. The cadbury-schweppes corporation decided that by repackaging all their existing products in similair dairy milk style 'foil wrapped for freshness' wrappers that they would dominate the confectionary displays in the nation's shops and service stations with a massive block of purple.
True story.

I miss sweeties from jars in the newsagents that the person would weigh out and put in a wee paper bag. They were good likes.

Hardly.

Mike, you are off your fucking head if you think they're even vaguely alike...
You sound like the fucking chocolate vending machine at Buchanan Bus Station in Glasgow which actually still has a Wispa button, but sadly gives you that booshit Dairy Milk Bubbly. Liars. SURE, on PAPER Dairy Milk with bubbles should be that Wispa magic, but... hell, no. It's not bad, but it's not a Wispa either....

Ah, Wispa Gold. Why don't you exist anymore?

Regular Wispa, I wish I hadn't overlooked you so much and dismissed you as dull when I was a child when at the confectionery counter.

Wispa, so called because it's so light it's like someone with overpowering disgusting chocolate breath "whispering" into your open mouth.

Mm.

I haven't actually had one, but i think the old wispa packaging had an influence on the taste. Likewise with caramel bars, they went downhill when the got rid of the yellow wrap-around jacket.
Wispa golds were amazing, also am i making this up or did there used to exist a mint variation of the wispa?

Yes to mint! See also, cappucino Wispa. These were introduced towards the end of Wispa's lifespan. Sadly, Aero won the bubble infused chocolate battle, and I'm sure it is because of their insistance on a foil/paper type wrap.

It's all flooding back now, what a treat they were! I've never been an aero fan, there's something fundamentally wrong with the flavour of the chocolate they use, it tastes like it's meant for dogs or something.
