Do you know if Coconut Boost Bars still exist? These used to be the best chocolate bars around. Regards Kevin
Hi I remember as a kid eating lots of Coconut Boost’s – They were in a Red wrapper Whatever happened to them. they were so nice ??? Regards Lisa
Coconut, peanut, biscuit? I think peanut Boosts were re-branded Star Bars, which have since returned to their original name in the last few years. Coconut Boosts have disappeared entirely around the mid-90s. Biscuit Boosts, based on the Irish Morro bar, seem to have also vanished to be replaced with Guarana Boost bars.
Boost (in the red wrapper) It was delicious, moist, crunchy coconut, covered with smooth caramel and encased in smooth milk chocolate mmm!!!

I have been on the hunt for these elusive laser beams for a while now. They were and remain mine and my sisters favourite sweets ever! I tracked down some laser beams by Malaco but they were not the same. Less hard and not hollow. I am still not sure whether I did not find the right ones and they are still out there somewhere or if the company have changed them. If they have changed them, they are not as good.

Dave remembers: -
They did used to have coconut ones first, then they brought in the Peanut ones in a tasteful brown wrapper, then they brought in Biscuit boosts last. I used to love the coconut ones. Now that i live in Australia, its funny that Biscuit Boosts are only new in the last 12 months. And i always thought that Star Bars were and have been around in addition to Boosts. And the Biscuit Boosts come in 2 packs, so they are like King Size size.
Gary remembers: -
I too remember the Coconut Boost (the original and best in my humble opinion).
I used to put mine in the fridge for half an hour and then peel off the chocolate and caramel to leave the coconut centre in one piece then slowly eat it.
The Boost you now buy in the shops with the Blue wrapper(with Glucose) are still widely available in my local shops and I have rather a liking for them as well although I wish they’d bring back the original Coconut Boost in the Red wrapper.
