What is Caramilk?
Caramilk is a chocolate made by Cadbury that is very popular in New Zealand and Australia. It’s a caramelized white chocolate that has an incredible flavour!
It was originally made in the 90’s and made a come back in 2017.
If you can’t find Caramilk chocolate you can use any other type of caramelized white chocolate or gold chocolate.
Variations
I love recipes where you can change up the ingredients depending on what you have on hand in your pantry or to your preferences!
Don’t like peanuts? How about almonds instead! Here are a few ideas.
- Nuts – This recipe calls for roasted unsalted peanuts. If you don’t like peanuts or don’t have them on hand can easily leave them out. Instead try adding almonds, macadamia nuts or pistachios.
- Twix Bars – Twix have a layer of caramel and biscuit covered in chocolate. Instead try adding cut up moro or mars bars, jersey caramels or maltesers.
- Cookies – I’ve used digestive biscuits in this recipe which are plain. Your favourite cookie or biscuit would work really well in this recipe whether thats choclate chip cookies, Tim Tams or gingernuts.
- Pretzels – Crunchy and salty, pretzels are one of my favourite additions to rocky road.
- Cranberries – As well as flavour, the colour of dried cranberries looks amazing in this caramilk rocky road.
You can also find a delicious recipe for Chocolate Rocky Road here. It’s filled with marshmallows, peanuts and turkish delight.
Tips and Tricks
- Melt the caramilk chocolate slowly. Chocolate can easily seize and split while being melted. The easiest way to avoid this is melt it slowly and gently. Use a heat proof bowl and heat for 20 second bursts in the microwave, stirring in between until fully smooth. Alternatively place the bowl of a pot of simmering water, stirring contentiously.
- Don’t add too many fillings! The recipe has the perfect ratio of chocolate to fillings so if you would like to add different fillings you need to remove others. Alternatively you can double the chocoalte and use double the amount of fillings!
- Let the Caramilk Rocky Road set fully before cutting into pieces. This will take about 2 hours in the fridge or 4 hours at room temperature. Cutting before its fully set will lead to a very sticky mess!
- Make sure to store the rocky road in an airtight container. It’ll keep in the fridge for about 3 weeks or if you don’t think you will finish it in that time, place it into the freezer for up to 3 months.
Caramilk Rocky Road Ingredients
- Cadbury Caramilk Chocolate – Caramilk is a very popular caramelized white chocolate. If Caramilk isn’t available where you live you can substitute with any other caramelized white chocolate or if you can’t find that just white chocolate.
- Marshmallows – I like to use white marshmallows for this rocky road as I prefer the look. Any kind of marshmallows can be used, just slice them to be bite sized pieces.
- Peanuts – Use roasted unsalted peanuts. Peanuts can be substituted with any other type of nut like almonds or macadamia nuts.
- Twix Bars – Twix can be subsituted for any other type of chocolate caramel candy bar like moro or mars.
- Digestive Biscuits – Digestive biscuits are very similar to graham crackers. Any type of plain biscuit or cookie can be used for this rocky road.
