Turkey Hill Maple Cream Cookies

Is it a cookie or is it a biscuit? If there was one thing I was hoping our Canadian guests were going to bring aside from the Maple Syrup of course.. it was these iconic Maple Cream Cookies. Inside this autumnal box are 18 maple leaf shaped cookies filled with a creamy and pure maple syrup filling. Sounds like a little bit of food heaven. Now can we take a moment for that filling, that is how a biscuit filling should be! If you aren’t into sweet things then these are not the ones for you. The thick biscuit halves…

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.…

Maryland Cookies ‘n’ Cream

Okay so these Maryland Cookies ‘n’ Cream aren’t strictly new. They certainly won’t be as exciting as the new Mint Choc ones (available in B&M review from Kev here), but that being said they are new to our local Sainsbury’s. If you think of cookies and cream I bet you’re thinking of Oreo’s, because they are kind on the cookies and cream flavour. Many other biscuits have tried to nail it but sadly the Oreo remains champion.  These are available in mainstream supermarkets and cost around 75p – £1.00 a pack. Maryland have expanded their range in a few different…

New Lotus Biscoff Cream Biscuits

Combining biscuit with their iconic spread it can only be one thing, the Lotus Biscoff Cream Biscuits. When it comes to Biscoff most of us love it in whatever form it comes in, and using both their cream spread and biscuits was naturally a genius move.  If one wasn’t enough these Lotus Biscoff Biscuits come in 3 flavours, Biscoff, Milk Chocolate and Vanilla. There were only available in Tesco stores and online, however are creeping into other supermarkets, and  are in Sainsbury’s. Each pack are RRP £1.39 and they are suitable for vegetarians and vegans.  Opting for a classic round…

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.…
