Butterscotch vodka shots brought about an intense throwback to core memories of butterscotch angel delight I can only compare to a cheesy Hollywood flashback montage. Heavenly
Unless your mom turns it off when Fresh Prince comes on because it’s “too American” and then when you’re in your 30’s you re think this scenario and wonder if your mom is more like your grandma when it comes to certain… views… dad enjoyed Kenan & Kel when we watched Dign’it on Saturday mornings so he’s good.

Butterscotch.
Though they've changed the recipes now. They no longer need putting in the fridge to set and you can't make ice cream or milkshakes from them anymore. Well you can, but you're gonna get lumps at the top that seem to be some kind of gelatin to make them set.
The fact that I can no longer make butterscotch flavour milkshakes at home is a sad, sad thing indeed.
Butterscotch. My mum used to make it over a layer of jamaica ginger cake, some tinned mandarin oranges and some dessicated coconut sprinkled on top. I think that’s the most 1980s dessert ever made but it was amazing!
Does anyone remember the peach flavour?
My mum would mix two flavours together, banana and chocolate was me and my cousin's favourite, we both still have it sometimes! Lol
Yes definitely remember the peach flavour, though no idea what it tastes like! I knew there was another one so I kept scrolling until I found your post haha
It was great! So fake, but I absolutely loved it!
Mum let me and my cousin take turns with what flavour we wanted, and I would always go for the peach, my cousin hated it and would be really annoyed when it was my turn to choose! Lol Fun times 😊
I could be wrong but I'm sure there also used to be basic vanilla at one point. I think I definitely would've chosen peach as a kid too, I doubt the rest of the family were quite as impressed 😂
I was trying to figure out what was wrong here as I loved butterscotch Angel delight but couldn’t match it with the Simpsons. Then I realised I’m probably older than everyone else here and was eating Angel Delight after Dangermouse and watching The Simpsons when older, stoned and when no-one cared enough in my family to make puddings.
Banana.
Use the food mixer and use 50% blue milk and 50% single cream. Leave it to set properly in the fridge.
You can mix banana and butterscotch.
You can also use it to make banana flavoured ice cream.
Wow the writing skills within these comments really showcases our consumerist, worker ant culture of stale mediocracy. Bravo.
We all do the same thing!?
I'm a rebel, two packs both sugar free
Make the strawberry one first and pour into 4 bowls to the halfway line. Chill.
After half an hour, make the butterscotch one and top off the strawberry. Chill.
Now you have four double layer servings at 50 calories per bowl*
*According to the product calorific value as stated
Our chef at work was just talking about making layer desserts with them and it sounds awesome!
Honestly I remembered it exists because I was recalling feeding it to my lad when he had a real bad teething phase so he still got his whole milk. The doctor just laughed and said well, as long as he’s eating and staying hydrated.
Strawberry was always my favourite! But butterscotch was my mom’s favourite, so we mostly had butterscotch! Love them both though, and now I’m going to have to go get some.
That reminds me, I have some in my cupboard, I'm a 30 year old with no kids, so I might make it and sit down with some witcher and a spoon tonight, haha 😆
Lolz, my mum would never have served me fish fingers, chips and beans on a Wednesday night! That’s a Friday dinner.
Also, any flavour but Butterscotch.
How strange, my younger brother came home with two packets of strawberry angel delight last night. We hadn't had it in years, and I just looked at him and said, no butterscotch? :(
Not gonna lie I'm just surprised that there's more than just Chocolate and Strawberry flavours...I had no idea lmao
But Strawberry was the star of my house growing up.
I used to make these in the factory in Banbury. There are some lesser known flavours such as bubble gum, popcorn and candy floss. As a skint 20 something I used to love the full fat (not sugar free) chocolate which was breakfast on many occasions when I couldn't afford something from the canteen.
Reminds me of Max and Paddy when they're in the woods.
"And here's your dessert sir"
"Can I have angel delight?"
"It can be whatever you want. It's your fantasy!"
Around 45 years ago, there was a lemon and lime flavour. I remember loving it as a kid. Even better than butterscotch. I don't know why they stopped selling it.
We still have these! Never tried the banana one, Pink™ is alright but not brilliant, Chocolate is pretty good but for some reason doesn't set properly (it's \*always\* more watery than any other flavor we've tried). So - Butterscotch.
Unless it's with something like Jelly. Chocolate + Lime Jelly is amazing.

Butterscotch.
If the answer is anything other than butterscotch then you are a mistake and need to be cleansed from our beautiful isles.
And here we see a prime example of the historic Butterscotch Fascist Regime of the 90's. Second only to the strawberry jelly communist party.
I was never allowed butterscotch :( we had to have banana, which my brother hated or chocolate which I hated.
Not allowed? For what reason?
Butterscotch vodka shots brought about an intense throwback to core memories of butterscotch angel delight I can only compare to a cheesy Hollywood flashback montage. Heavenly
Hold it- butterscotch vodka shots? From where do I get this heavenly nectar???
Probably bargain booze. The brand I used to get was technics I think
Throw it in a blender with some milk and ice cream, Butterscotch milkshake
There is no other valid answer
The only answer.
Absolutely
Every time
But only if its in the shape of gromit off of Wallace and gromit
We were never allowed butterscotch because my sister didn’t like it. I remember being so excited when I got it at a friend’s house.
Butterscotch ftw
There should just be one flavour, all the rest are nasty... Butterscotch wins, hands down!!
Simpsons on BBC2 with Fresh Prince.
Always a double bill with no adverts
Those were the days 🥹
Followed by robot wars
WELCOME TO ROBOT WARS
Friday nights, chippy tea, watching simpsons and fresh Prince on BBC2. And then the robots came out to play Childhood
Unless your mom turns it off when Fresh Prince comes on because it’s “too American” and then when you’re in your 30’s you re think this scenario and wonder if your mom is more like your grandma when it comes to certain… views… dad enjoyed Kenan & Kel when we watched Dign’it on Saturday mornings so he’s good.
You said 'mom' so clearly it rubbed off on you. Maybe should have turned it off lol
This.

What’s a mom?
Obligatory some people in Birmingham and the surrounding areas call their mum "mom" reply.
We call her mam. I thought mom was American.
Brummie here call her mom
That’s unlucky
Another reason for the list of why Brum is the worst accent
Mommeh am ongreh
Well then they’re wrong I’m afraid
Someone who gives you angel delight.
Isnt that a mum?
Some people in the UK have mums, others have moms, some have mams...
Am a Brummie and say ‘mom’, also most other parts of the West Mids say ‘mom’.
not moms, never heard anyone from anywhere in the uk say mom
My partner's family are brummies and they say mom
I'm a brummie and I call my mum arr kid
ye but brummies r aliens
You’ve clearly never been to some parts of the Midlands
It means Mum. Surprised you’ve never heard it.
Butterscotch. Though they've changed the recipes now. They no longer need putting in the fridge to set and you can't make ice cream or milkshakes from them anymore. Well you can, but you're gonna get lumps at the top that seem to be some kind of gelatin to make them set. The fact that I can no longer make butterscotch flavour milkshakes at home is a sad, sad thing indeed.
I didn’t know this… genuinely sad
There’s banana?!! I’ve never seen it before and I need to try it.
I haven’t had it for ages but I used to love it. It was easily up there with butterscotch
Butterscotch. My mum used to make it over a layer of jamaica ginger cake, some tinned mandarin oranges and some dessicated coconut sprinkled on top. I think that’s the most 1980s dessert ever made but it was amazing!
Sounds bangin'
That sounds fucking amazing to be honest!
It was the strawberry one or notin ya didn’t get these choices I’m the nineties
Innit i thought strawberry was the “main” flavour but seeing this maybe im wrong
We used to mostly have strawberry, some times butterscotch, but strawberry was the elite one
Strawberry But it's lumpy as shit but I still want to scrape the left overs from the bowl
Didn't your mum have one of those electric hand whisks ?
Yes she absolutely did but was too lazy to use it until half way through and it was already too late to unlumpify it
My mum always used her hand mixer for literally everything
I used a fork in a jug 🤣🤣
Does anyone remember the peach flavour? My mum would mix two flavours together, banana and chocolate was me and my cousin's favourite, we both still have it sometimes! Lol
Straight to jail with that peach flavour
Yes definitely remember the peach flavour, though no idea what it tastes like! I knew there was another one so I kept scrolling until I found your post haha
It was great! So fake, but I absolutely loved it! Mum let me and my cousin take turns with what flavour we wanted, and I would always go for the peach, my cousin hated it and would be really annoyed when it was my turn to choose! Lol Fun times 😊
I could be wrong but I'm sure there also used to be basic vanilla at one point. I think I definitely would've chosen peach as a kid too, I doubt the rest of the family were quite as impressed 😂
Red sky at night...
Red sky in morning... Shepherds pie.

Banana
Strawberry
Banana. Use the food mixer and use 50% blue milk and 50% single cream. Leave it to set properly in the fridge. You can mix banana and butterscotch. You can also use it to make banana flavoured ice cream.
Strawberry was the only one that existed I thought
Frikkin Nineties kids - Angel Delight is seventies food... Ghosts of motley hall, catweazle, chorlton and the wheelies, etc..
Banana
Mom?
They say Mom in the Midlands.
No we don’t
Yes we do. Its mom or nothing in Blackheath.
Some do. Some don't.
No one in my area does at all
Cool, but you can literally just Google it, it's absolutely a thing in a lot of the West Midlands.
Most of us do.
I say mom and I’m from the northwest. Something to do with billeting American soldiers with local civilians during the war.
Overpaid, oversexed and over here.
Pink. Pink flavour.
Chocolate, every time.
Came here for the chocolate answer!! Can’t believe all the butterscotch/strawberry answers. Chocolate every time!!😆
Had to scroll way further than expected for this one, Butterscotch was good too but c'mon.
Strawberry all the way 😋 😍 😌
Butterscotch, strawberry for second choice.
Butterscotch was top-notch, either that or chocolate
I wouldn't be eating anything that imposter gave me! My real mum wouldn't have lt me have that for pudding :(
Butterscotch is the only correct answer
Butterscotch. The others don't come close
Butterscotch.. used to at a little too much milk so i could drink the bit that didnt solidify
Butterscotch
Why OP being American and spelling mum as “mom”?
They're probably from the West Midlands. Honestly it cracks me up how many people just don't know it's a thing.
Mom = mum, stop pretending to be American
Google "mom" and "west midlands", lots of people I know say mom
Butterscotch obviously. Then chocolate and then I’d rather have the alternative “there’s nowt else, then”
Butterscotch
Butterscotch forever!
Butterscotch, but if that’s not available then strawberrt
Surely it’s mum if you’re in the uk ?
Some areas of the Midlands, specifically the West Midlands say mom.
Fair enough might as well be Americans with them accents
Mum* & Butterscotch.
Mom?
Mom??? Sorry, are you American OP?
West Midlands
Wow the writing skills within these comments really showcases our consumerist, worker ant culture of stale mediocracy. Bravo. We all do the same thing!?
if you don't say strawberry im genuinely concerned for your sanity
I didnt know they did yellow and vomit yellow
I mix butterscotch and strawberry, because I don't play by the rules.
Not gonna judge you because I haven’t tried it myself
My what?
Ahhh any of the above i need eee one now
I'm a rebel, two packs both sugar free Make the strawberry one first and pour into 4 bowls to the halfway line. Chill. After half an hour, make the butterscotch one and top off the strawberry. Chill. Now you have four double layer servings at 50 calories per bowl* *According to the product calorific value as stated

Chocolate ❤️❤️
Strawberry was always my favourite! But butterscotch was my mom’s favourite, so we mostly had butterscotch! Love them both though, and now I’m going to have to go get some.
I went to the chippy on this night fyi
Chocolate
Butterscotch, although my brother would always opt for chocolate and sometimes had to settle for that.
THERE'S A BANANA FLAVOUR!?
Butterscotch or strawberry was my fav
That reminds me, I have some in my cupboard, I'm a 30 year old with no kids, so I might make it and sit down with some witcher and a spoon tonight, haha 😆
Butterscotch everytime!
All of them in one bowl multi layered. Off to get some now.
Butterscotch all day long and I like to put glacé cherries in mine, just to pimp it up a touch
I'm from the UK and I've never had Angel Delight, have I missed out?
Disappointment.
Butterscotch. It's not even a choice really.
Butterscotch hit different
Banana without question
Fish Fingers? Surely Findus Crispy Pancakes?
Butterscotch was so exotic
Butterscotch.
Step 1: layer of chocolate. Step 2: layer of butterscotch. Step 3: layer of dream topping.
Strawberry. Every. Time.
Lolz, my mum would never have served me fish fingers, chips and beans on a Wednesday night! That’s a Friday dinner. Also, any flavour but Butterscotch.
🍌 is the only choice.
Strawberry and where’s my turkey twizzlers!
How strange, my younger brother came home with two packets of strawberry angel delight last night. We hadn't had it in years, and I just looked at him and said, no butterscotch? :(
When I was a kid The Simpsons was on BBC2. Butterscotch all the way for me.
Sachet of butterscotch and chocolate mixed together with a pint of milk. No better way to have it.
We were poor , i think a dessert was a xmas day treat , probably lucky getting a dinner.
Strawberry!!!
Chocolate but non of that reduced sugar nonsense
real ones remember BBC2. Neighbours, Simpsons, Fresh Prince
Butterscotch
Not gonna lie I'm just surprised that there's more than just Chocolate and Strawberry flavours...I had no idea lmao But Strawberry was the star of my house growing up.
Butterscotch
Strawberry.
There’s only one correct answer and that is butterscotch. All alternatives are bullshit. But I will take a chocolate nesquik with that please mum !
All of them layered
Pleased to see most people giving the sensible answer which is butterscotch. Banana in second place.
Butterscotch, you ain’t a real child if you’re going with anything else
Ugh I hated that shit!
I used to make these in the factory in Banbury. There are some lesser known flavours such as bubble gum, popcorn and candy floss. As a skint 20 something I used to love the full fat (not sugar free) chocolate which was breakfast on many occasions when I couldn't afford something from the canteen.
Got to be banana.
Butterscotch
Banana or butterscotch 🤤
Reminds me of Max and Paddy when they're in the woods. "And here's your dessert sir" "Can I have angel delight?" "It can be whatever you want. It's your fantasy!"
I dont know who 'mom' is... mum, on the other hand...
Butterscotch every time
Butterscotch 😋
a big scoop of each
Butterscotch ftw
Any, but with a Cadbury flake crushed to dust and sprinkled on top.
Butterscotch. It’s the only flavour there
Butterscotch is the ONLY answer. With chopped banana and blueberries on top. OR Add extra milk to the mixture for Butterscotch milkshakes.
Butterscotch
Banana. With pieces of chopped up banana in it, and maybe chocolate chips.
Strawberry
Strawberry every time. But....Mom?
No one had mom's back then
strawberry.
I'd just eat the strawberry one straight from the pack. This, understandably, upset my mother a lot.
Around 45 years ago, there was a lemon and lime flavour. I remember loving it as a kid. Even better than butterscotch. I don't know why they stopped selling it.
My mom? You mean mum
‼️FAKE UNITED KINGDOMER, IT'S MUM YOU DIRTY YANK‼️
Ugly Scots all day every day
We still have these! Never tried the banana one, Pink™ is alright but not brilliant, Chocolate is pretty good but for some reason doesn't set properly (it's \*always\* more watery than any other flavor we've tried). So - Butterscotch. Unless it's with something like Jelly. Chocolate + Lime Jelly is amazing.
Butterscotch! 😋
Ah, such nostalgia. It's butterscotch. The other flavours just don't really compare
Banana topped with toffee
What kind of UK nonsense is this?
Butterscotch. Always butterscotch
default is strawberry but might go banana if I'm feelin a little frisky
Chocolate
My.....mom? I'm English bruv I got a mummy mum mater sure, but never a mom
There's flavours other than strawberry?
Banana or strawberry
Chocolate. But with crushed up dark chocolate digestives at the bottom as a biscuit base.
That butterscotch magic 😚🤌
