McVitie’s Digestives Nibbles – Milk Chocolate & Caramel

McVitie’s have released some new pouches of biscuity goodies and given they have my name on them I couldn’t not try them!! Enter McVitie’s Digestives Nibbles. They come in 4 varieties, Milk Chocolate, Caramel, Dark chocolate and Double Chocolate and are chocolatey biscuit forms of their ever popular Digestives, just bitesize.

I picked up the Milk Chocolate and Caramel Nibbles,…

Tesco Red Velvet Cake Slices

I have had a real hankering for red velvet recently and whilst on a rare visit to Tesco I spied these Tesco Red Velvet Cake Slices and immediately had to pop them in the basket.  Red velvet cake is not very prominent and I do question why, it really is one of my favourite cakes in all the land.

Being the kind soul she is and the fact we are mildly obsessed with Bakewell, she sent some over and has continued to…

Today marks the day of not one but two new Limited Edition Krispy Kreme doughnuts. Could Monday be off to a better start? Gone are the Valentine’s Love Bug and Honey Bee because it is now all about the Brownie Batter and Cookie Dough. I picked these two up at Tesco Cabinet Stores for £1.90 a pop so lets not dilly dally, lets get tasting.  Krispy Kreme Brownie Batter A brownie batter filling, hand-dipped in milk chocolate and topped with brownie chunks & choc chips I cannot say that this flavour overly excited me but it is along the same theme of…

Walkers Crispy Crackers Salt & Vinegar and Cheddar Cheese

Before Christmas there was a surge of crisps morphing into crackers and let’s face it they weren’t all that. Whilst pootling up the aisles of Sainsbury’s Walkers have now jumped on the crisp and cracker hybrid wagon and devised Walkers Crispy Crackers and Melty Crackers. They come in 4 flavours – Salt & Vinegar, Cheddar Cheese, Sweet Chilli and Sour Cream and Onion, today’s post is all about the Crispy Crackers.  First up Walkers Crispy Crackers Salt & Vinegar  Salt and Vinegar is hands down my favourite flavour in all the land. In fact the saltier and vinegary the better. Pouring…
