0 It's possible that it was referring to a '99 Flake' - a Cadbury's chocolate bar, which is usually assossiated with ice-cream - a small '99 Flake' would be pushed into the ice-cream - these are most often bought from ice-cream vans. Sometimes this is shortened to just '99'. 0-

0For us culturally challenged Americans, what on earth do you mean by "chocolate flake"? It means nothing to this American! 05000 OK - except that it's chocolate, of course.010id1

0 Hmmmm. Hard to describe. I'm not sure you have them in America. 02br

00They are only made by Cadburys. They are roughly finger shaped and width, and about 6 inches long for the ones you can buy directly and special ones for ice creams about 3 inches long, and are made of Cadburys milk chocolate (very distinctive taste/texture) and are sort of ripples of chocolate all

00I'll have to see if I can find it somewhere around here. 02br
00We can certainly get Cadbury's products, but I don't recall seeing chocolate flake. 02br
