Sounds like a really difficult job. Sticking all the stringy lines of chocolate together.
Could they not just snap them half. Like some ice cream sellers do. Always felt short changed when they did that.

DOOM: 99 flakes
“Ice-cream vans hit by Cadbury flake shortage
Only the UK and Ireland are thought to have been affected by dwindling supplies as demand soars
Ice-cream vans are at risk of running out of Cadbury’s famous 99 Flakes as supply problems lead to a shortage of the chocolate sticks.
Despite a cold and wet start to the summer, demand for the crumbly treat used to top soft scoop ice-cream cones has increased in recent weeks with supply struggling to keep up. The 99 Flakes are half the size of Flakes sold in newsagents and supermarkets.
Only the UK and Ireland are thought to have been affected by dwindling supplies. It is unclear if supply issues are related to either Brexit or coronavirus, or how long the shortage might last.”
