McVities Marmalade on Toast Digestives

McVities Marmalade on Toast Digestives

It’s certainly divided opinion and it’s not surprising really given these aren’t your conventional biscuit flavours. Yes I am talking about the new Digestive biscuits. McVities have given us not one, but THREE new flavours. There’s McVities Marmalade on Toast Digestives, Cherry Bakewell which I reviewed last week (here), and Strawberries and Cream. So far they are exclusive to Morrisons and have been a bit tricky for people to track down all three flavours. I had similar issues and only managed to find two out of the three. As expected they aren’t on any offer and were £1.50 per pack.…

McVities Cherry Bakewell Digestives

I don’t think the biscuit world has been this excited since, well…. forever! Why I hear you cry? Because McVities have given us not one, but THREE new flavours, and we aren’t talking just run of the mill. There’s McVities Cherry Bakewell Digestives, which I am reviewing today, Marmalade on Toast and Strawberries and Cream. So far they are exclusive to Morrisons and have been a bit tricky for people to track down all three flavours. I had similar issues and only managed to find two out of the three.

New Limited Edition Costa Ruby Hot Chocolate

New Limited Edition Costa Ruby Hot Chocolate

It’s tipped to be the most instagramable hot chocolate of the year, and we are only in February. Released as part of the new January menu, Costa have given us a Ruby Hot Chocolate AND it’s pink!  There has been quite a few things in Ruby chocolate form to hit shelves, including two types of KitKat (review here and here) and Presat Ruby Bar (review from Kevvie here). What makes ruby chocolate so special? A number of years ago cocoa experts discovered components of certain cocoa beans could produce a chocolate with an exceptional flavour and colour. Above all this…

White Chocolate Smarties Buttons

White Chocolate Smarties Buttons

Happy Friday! Smarties fans you are in for a treat! After 83 years you can now get Smarties in button form, what a time to be alive! You may have seen my review of the Milk Chocolate Smarties Buttons earlier this week, if you didn’t you can catch up here. Today it is the turn of these White Chocolate Smarties Buttons. They are available in sharing (err what does that mean?) and single packs. Each white choc sharing pouch contains 85g and has a pretty excessive size bag for the actual contents. As mentioned before the sizes do differ depending…

Milk Chocolate Smarties Buttons

Milk Chocolate Smarties Buttons

Did you know Smarties have been in the making since 1937? 83 years is a long old time, and 2020 is the year that they have had a little shake up and they now come in button form. As well as Milk Chocolate Smarties Buttons, they also come in white and orange flavoured chocolate. There are 2 sizes – single and sharing (which is optional). I am not too sure why the sharing bag weights differ between flavours. The milk chocolate gives you 90g in comparison to 85g with the other two. All three are slowly hitting supermarkets, and I found…
