McVitie’s Jaffa Jonuts

Newness alert! Going above the usual flavour change, we have instead been given the lovechild of the OG Jaffa Cake and delicious donuts; enter the McVitie’s Jaffa Jonuts. Not just hell bent on the cake or biscuit debate McVitie’s have now thrown donuts (really it’s doughnuts!!) into the mix. The concept is out there and is bound to shake things up. Currently only available in orange, I highly suspect that other flavours will quickly follow. These were in Tesco for £2.00 or £1.50 if you are a club card member. Each box comes with 4 individually wrapped donuts. The wrappers are…

McVitie’s Strawberry Cheesecake Digestives

Flavoured Digestives are not a new thing and since last year we have had an array of them. From Cherry Bakewell to Lemon Drizzle, Marmalade on Toast and Blood Orange, it’s certainly a far cry from the usual chocolate variety. One of the latest additions to join the family is the McVitie’s Strawberry Cheesecake Digestives. Now you may remember that last year they released a Strawberries & Cream version, so why they have chosen Strawberry Cheesecake so soon after is a mystery. In fact this isn’t the first time strawberry cheesecake has featured as they previously did a filled cream version.…

McVitie’s Cherry Jaffa Cakes

Would you believe that over 1 billion are devoured each year!! That is a lot of Jaffa Cakes and fans can rejoice as there are two new flavours on the block. We are going full on fruit bowl with the addition of McVitie’s Cherry Jaffa Cakes and Passionfruit Jaffa Cakes and these join the OG Orange, Strawberry and the best flavour ever to be made, Pineapple. It is going to be tough to beat the Pineapple Jaffa Cakes, and ever since trying them I have had quite the addiction. The set up is the same as the others, chocolate on top,…

Maryland Cookies It’s Mint To Be

The track record for different flavoured Maryland Cookies in my opinion has not been great. Their flavour ambitions are up there, it is the execution that lets it down. That being said two new varieties have hit the shelves, one of which are these Maryland Cookies It’s Mint To Be. These new cookies are mint flavoured cookies (obviously) with chocolate chips and sugar pearls. You will now find them in both Sainsbury and Tesco for around £1.35 a pack. It is quite nice to see that they haven’t gone done the chocolate orange route like so many others recently. You…

Terry’s Chocolate Orange White Mini Eggs

Another new chocolate orange goodie to add to the ever growing number on the shelves. Terry’s Chocolate Orange White Mini Eggs are here and after the joy of the OG flavour last year (review here), can these be a winner too? Terry’s first treated us to the mini white segments late last year, and I have to say I was not a fan in the slightest. In each 80g bag there are egg-shaped white chocolates flavoured with orange oil with a crispy coloured sugar shell. These were picked up from Tesco for £1.00 a pack, and they have been spotted in…
