I have some good news ;D
Woollies has obviously listened to the customer complaints about their homebrand cocoa, and has reinstated their original supplier of the cocoa. Soon we will see their shelves being restocked with the familiar box of German quality cocoa.
Thank you Woolies, and thank you to all the people who complained directly to Woolies or posted their complaint in this thread.

Yay, people power - how good is that.  Well done forum members and thanks ES for that great news.

Once it hits the shelves, maybe a few thank you emails wouldn't go astray either  ;)

Our Woolworths was fully stocked yesterday when I was there but it was still in newer plastic packaging so I didn't bother picking some up, I might have to buy a packet to try next time I'm there.

Wonder, check the packaging for the country or origin- the one you want comes from Germany ;)

Woohoo!! People Power! ;D
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

There's still no HomeBrand cocoa at all on our shelves here  :(  Had to buy another brand and not at all happy with it.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.
