Doesn't Lidl or Aldi make copycats for most of these, including bounty? they usually come in multiples in a bag.

I actually don't eat chocolates, so it's not something I look for ๐Ÿ˜…. But one of the few I actually liked and everyone else seems to hate is this one. I would need to check in one of those places, but considering that I'm not in a central european country and we only get a very small sample of products from those supermarkets I'm not so sure. At least considering that it's a fringe chocolate.

Not a real replacement but Raffaello does the job.

How about Rapunzel Kokos Happen / Glรผcksstรผcke (same product, two names)? German / Ecological. The bittersweet version is vegan and tastes great, the milkchocolate version isn't.

So does the milk chocolate version not taste great, or is it not vegan, or both?

It's not vegan and I never tried it. ;)
