Hershey’s Reese’s Crunchers

It’s sunny, it’s hot, it’s nearly the weekend and Reese’s Crunchers are here!  The humble Reese’s so simple and yet so darn good. The Reese’s family is pretty sizeable and of everything they have released the good ole peanut butter cup in it’s many varieties, Crunchy, Pieces, Sugar Free to name a few, is still my favourite.  I confess I was looking for the Reese’s Crunchy Cookie Cup but when I saw these my disappointment at the lack of said cup faded, and in came the excitement. For this 184g pouch it cost £4.99, bit of a choker really but who am I…

Strawberry Nut M&M’s Yes You Read That Right

I wouldn’t blame you for doing a double take on today’s blog post because I certainly did in the shop. Strawberry Nut M&Ms are an actual thing! Any American’s or avid American chocolate lovers will know that M&M’s did chocolate covered strawberry M&M’s last year, however the difference here is they’ve thrown peanuts into the mix.  Now I understand Strawberry M&M’s because well strawberries and chocolate is just so YES, but plonking a big ol peanut in there is pretty intriguing.  I spied these in my trusty Garden Centre Longacres (where I also found Mint M&M’s) and they were instantly…

Starburst Jelly Beans Ice Cream

Gone are the days where Starburst are confined to square chewy sweets, where the wrapper is superglued to the sweetie and you have to weigh-up abandoning ship or chowing down the partially unwrapped chew. Starburst Jelly Beans are an actual thing and I am pretty joyful at the fact.  Jelly beans are up there on my top favourite sweets ever. Those little beans can pack some almighty flavours in them that make it feel like you’ve hit the lottery every time you have a handful. These Starburst Jelly Beans Ice Cream flavours are not the only ones that Starburst offer. You…

Oreo Cinnamon Bun

Ever since the Oreo Red Velvet I have been craving and searching high and low for the Oreo Cinnamon Bun. Cinnamon Bun is one of the simplest but tastiest flavours when done right, and I love nothing more than a cinnamon bun with a nice cup of tea, and I am hoping and praying that these live up to my expectation.  Thankfully on my last trip to the ever exciting Longacres, luck was on my side as sitting on the shelf on their lonesome was the last packet of Oreo Cinnamon Bun. I can only assume it was holding out for…

Chips Ahoy! Red Velvet

First we had the awful Fox’s Red Velvet Crunch Creams, then the deliciously sweet Red Velvet Oreo and today we have Chips Ahoy! Red Velvet. Yes my obsession with red velvet has intensified but as Valentine’s is almost here I knew I had to have these beauties in my life. I found these in my trusty American import shop aka Longacres Garden Centre. These were just shy of £5.00, yes almost a fiver for a pack of cookies, but I had to have them. Red cookie artificially flavoured with a cream cheese filling topped with cream cheese flavored chips. Per 2 cookies: 140…
