Fox’s Winter Desserts Biscuits

There’s nothing better than biscuits with your tea (or coffee) and what’s great about the festive season, it has been biscuit selection boxes galore. Yes I am still teetering on the edge of the festive period and picked these Fox’s Winter Desserts Biscuits because they sound scrumptious. Half price in Sainsbury’s this box of 16 biscuits was £2.50. Sadly there is only one tray so no getting excited that there is another layer hiding in there! Fox’s have given us 4 dessert flavours Chocolate Brownie, Millionaire’s Shortbread, White Chocolate & Raspberry Cheesecake and Sticky Toffee Pudding. Each biscuit has a…

Limited Edition Strawberry Jaffa Cakes

The Strawberry Jaffa Cakes are back. Yes they first made their appearance a year or so ago and have come back around. Why I am not too sure. Perhaps it is down to summer fast approaching and these certainly seem like more of a summer flavour.  I am quite traditional when it comes to Jaffa Cakes and I don’t think I tried the Strawberry version first time around.

Maryland Cookies aren’t really the go, but when I spied the Maryland Cookies Desserts range I couldn’t resist giving them a try. The range has certainly grown from just the humble choc chip, double choc and hazelnut variety and now includes Maryland Wonders, Big & Chunky, Sugar Free and Maryland Cookies Desserts. These come in two flavours, Mississippi Mud Pie and New York Cheesecake.  Randomly these were found in the foodie…

McVitie’s Chocolate Orange Nibbles

It’s so close to Christmas we can almost taste it! I have been raving about the McVitie’s White Chocolate Nibbles, honestly if you haven’t given them a go get some pronto before they disappear! Needless to say whilst getting myself another bag of these beauties I spied McVitie’s Chocolate Orange Nibbles.  Frankly I cannot believe that I have not come across these sooner, despite the packets saying they are new it would appear that they have actually been out for a number of months. It does however seem that these and the white chocolate version are not in every supermarket. If you…

The People’s Choice – Oreo Choc’o Brownie

Nearly a year ago Oreo gave the UK public the chance to vote for the new Oreo flavour following the addition of Strawberry and Mint. Most surprising was over 40% of the votes went on having a chocolate brownie centre, fast forward to the present day and these Oreo Choc’o Brownie biscuits have hit the shelves.  Firstly I am not one of the 40+% people and instead am one of those who are mighty annoyed that despite the option of Banana (my vote), Lemon, or Coconut, we have gone for the boring Brownie Batter. Nonetheless before I completely put this one…
