The year is 2025, society has collapsed, our only entertainment is arena combat. But due to cutbacks we only have Chocolate and sweets as weapons.

What 2 chocolate bars/sweets do you take into the arena?

*Each battle is to the death

* Weather is a cool autumn day, so no chance of instant melting

* All chocolate and sweets must be packaging free (so no bludgeoning someone to death with a 2kg 1980's Quality Street Tin.

*Some of your opponents may have nut allergies, so all nuts must be declared.

Hershey's, that'll strawberry float them up

Double decker
And
A slab of rock hard toffee that can be sharpened like obsidian into a dagger.

A giant Toblerone to use as a club, plus a custard pie to blind my opponent (in a hilarious way).

Something with a lot of nuts in (a Topic bar perhaps). Should whittle the allergy sufferers out nice and early.

Edit - do Topic bar's still exist? If not then bonus points for me inflicting food poisoning.

Custard pie to blind someone is a good idea. I feel you really have to think outside of the (Lindor) box here.

What's the worst sweet you could throw into someone's eyes -- can we do better than the pie? Maybe popping candy? Or like, if this doesn't stretch the definition of a sweet too much, you could throw sherbet powder like that "pocket sand" scene from King of the Hill?

A stick of rock to use as a weapon, and a Twinkie because of the excellent sugar rush (the choice of Genghis Khan).

Chocolate Orange, one good throw to the head and they'll be dead.

Packets of refreshers, crumbled up and blown into the face of my opponent. The sugar crystals and chemicals blinding them, getting into their nose and mouth, their last words a fizzing gargled plea for a glass of water and a wet wipe.

Flying saucers - the perfect form factor to deliver sugar dust destruction to the eyes of my opponent from afar!

Highland toffee bar in each hand to deliver close up justice to anyone who survives the UFO barrage.

I’d smash a Crunchie against a table and stab people with the sharp end.

Normal-sized gobstoppers all over the floor, opponent trips, I then bash their head in with a giant gobstopper. (Those things were ridiculous, I never managed to finish one.)

A Milky Way.

I have accepted my fate and will sit in the corner dwelling on my favourite memories of being seven years old before the sweet release of death.

A chocolate orange inside a sock would make a great murder weapon, because you could beat someone to death with it

And in that scenario, you don't have to worry about any superficial damage to the box.

I may have invalidated the warranty.

I don't think I'd be fighting either. This is a society where there is no work, no weapons and only sweets, let the aliens who find our bones know we finally found peace...

But if pushed a toffee apple and a Snickers that has been in the freezer.

Curly wurly for close combat, humbugs for long range. Thunder dome combat rules.

A push pop filed down to a sharp point and you basically have a flick knife/shiv combined with ring pop knuckle dusters.

chocolate orange and a yorkie

or an airport toblerone
