Some days, you’re not looking for a full-blown dessert or a “chef mode” kitchen experiment. You’re just craving something sweet, quick, and unapologetically indulgent. The kind of snack you’d whip up with whatever’s in the pantry — like that packet of Chocobakes someone gifted you, half a pouch of Gems lying around, or the Morde chocolate bar you bought “for baking” but secretly nibble every other night.
Welcome to the world of emergency desserting. It’s creative, chaotic, and honestly, the most fun your taste buds will have in under 10 minutes.
Why These Three?
Let’s be real. These aren’t just ingredients. They’re memories.
- Chocobakes (from Cadbury) is basically your chocolate fantasy wrapped inside a biscuit shell.
- Gems is pure nostalgia — colorful, crunchy, and chaotic, just like our childhood.
- Morde chocolate? The OG for home bakers, party-makers, and all of us trying to make fancy desserts on a budget.
Put them together, and you’ve got snack magic.
1. Gems Biscuit Sandwiches 🍪
What you need:
- Parle-G or Marie biscuits
- Morde melted chocolate
- Gems
How to make:
Spread melted Morde chocolate on one biscuit, top with another, press gently. Now dip the edges in Gems for that rainbow crunch. Chill for 5 minutes (if you can wait).
Why we love it:
It’s like a party in your mouth — crunchy, chocolatey, and super cute to look at.
2. Chocobakes Bombs 💣
What you need:
- Chocobakes biscuits
- Crushed digestive biscuits or cake crumbs
- A little cream or condensed milk
- Cocoa powder for dusting
How to make:
Crush the Chocobakes and mix with cake crumbs and cream until you get a doughy texture. Roll into balls. Dust with cocoa or dip in melted Morde for drama.
Why it works:
It’s truffle-adjacent but takes zero effort. Perfect for late-night snack attacks or last-minute guests.
3. No-Bake Gems Bark 🍫
What you need:
- Morde chocolate slab
- Gems
- Nuts (optional)
How to make:
Melt the Morde chocolate and spread it on a baking sheet. Sprinkle Gems and nuts on top. Let it set in the fridge and break into pieces.
Why it slaps:
It’s colourful, crackly, and gives off serious “Made at a fancy chocolate shop” energy. But shhh… no one needs to know it took you five minutes.
4. Chocobakes S’mores (Desi Style) 🔥
What you need:
- Chocobakes
- Marshmallows
- A microwave or lighter (yes, we’ve all done that trick)
How to make:
Place a marshmallow between two Chocobakes and microwave for 10–15 seconds OR toast the marshmallow and press between biscuits.
The result?
Sticky. Sweet. Gooey. Basically, comfort in two bites.
5. Mini Gems Popcorn Mix 🎉
What you need:
- Plain popcorn
- Melted Morde chocolate
- Gems
How to make:
Toss popcorn in melted Morde chocolate, sprinkle with Gems, and chill. Or skip the chill and enjoy warm if you’re feeling impatient (same).
Why it hits:
Sweet-salty, crunchy-melty — the kind of snack that disappears faster than you can say “Netflix and snack.”
Make It a Party: Mix ‘n’ Match Fun
You don’t have to stick to the script. These three ingredients are playgrounds for your cravings:
- Chocobakes Crumble over ice cream
- Gems trail mix with dry fruits
- Morde Chocolate-dipped fruit skewers with Gems on top
The best part? No baking required. No judgment either.
🍫 Real Talk: Are There Any Benefits to Chocolate?
Yes, chocolate isn’t just a guilty pleasure — especially when you’re using better quality ones like Morde Dark or semi-sweet cocoa-based chocolates. Here’s what science has to say (and what your taste buds already know):
- Mood Booster: Chocolate triggers the release of serotonin and endorphins — aka your brain’s happy chemicals. That’s why we all reach for it during stress (and heartbreak).
- Heart Health (in moderation): Dark chocolate, especially, is rich in flavonoids — compounds known to improve blood flow and lower blood pressure.
- Antioxidant-Rich: Quality cocoa contains antioxidants that fight free radicals — supporting overall cell health and skin glow.
- Improved Brain Function: Studies show that regular, moderate dark chocolate consumption may enhance memory and focus (great excuse for a mid-study snack).
- Mineral Powerhouse: Chocolate contains essential minerals like magnesium, iron, and potassium — tiny nutrients that do big work for your body.
- Kids Eat Better When There’s Fun Involved: Okay, not a “scientific” fact, but if a few Gems sprinkled over fruit or a Chocobakes surprise gets them excited about snacks — it’s a win!
Just remember: moderation is key. And if you’re making your snacks at home (like with Morde or Chocobakes), you’re already ahead — no added preservatives, weird chemicals, or sugar overloads from store-bought desserts.
Final Crumb: Let’s Keep It Fun
Whether you’re making treats for a kid’s birthday, a sleepover, or just your own moody self on a Tuesday evening — these quick snacks have your back.
So the next time you’re raiding your kitchen like a dessert detective, look for these three words: Chocobakes. Gems. Morde.
Your snack hack game just levelled up.
