Snickers Xtreme

Never did I think there would be so many varieties of Snickers, you have Classic, Almond, Hazelnut, Dark, Peanut Butter and Mini to name a few. Snickers have now taken it one step further with Snickers Xtreme.  Apparently the name of this bar was voted for by Snickers fans however if like me you are a little perplexed as to what makes it Xtreme let me tell you. Unlike a classic Snickers which consists of nougat topped with caramel & peanuts, coated in milk chocolate, this Xtreme bar has chucked away the nougat to make more room for peanuts and caramel. I am…

Pop Works & Company Peanut Butter & Caramel

Stop what you are doing because there is a new gourmet popcorn in town and goes by the name of Pop Works & Company.

There appears to be an influx of mini chocolate recently, what with the Dinky Deckers, Kit Kat Minis and Twix Bites, but I am by far more interested in the Snickers Bites.  Oddly I never used to like Snickers however more recently I have been craving Snickers and relishing in the chocolatey peanutty caramelly goodness. I picked these 136g pouch bites up in Waitrose for £1.99, pretty pricey in terms of the fact the bag is…

Muffin Break Peanut Butter, Banana & Caramel Muffin

On Friday a little email from Muffin Break landed in my inbox to tell me all about their new limited edition muffin, which clearly had me at Peanut Butter! So say hello to Muffin Break Peanut Butter, Banana & Caramel Muffin.  Peanut butter and banana is a classic combination yet the Muffin Lab have taken it a step further and thrown in some caramel for good measure. The description alone about this muffin is enough to make you drool – ‘This wondrous creation has fresh banana mixed through the muffin and is filled with creamy peanut butter in the centre.…

Café Royal Caramel Nespresso Compatible

Not even a year old and yet the Nespresso machine in our house is still Daddio’s favourite gadget, and he always has his eye on the Nespresso capsules when shopping. In Sainsbury’s we spied these Café Royal Caramel capsules that are compatable with Nespresso, and is the first flavoured compatible capsule we have seen, thus decided to take the plunge.  Presented in a compact cardboard box, these Café Royal Caramel capsules were £3 for 10, not too bad a price for a flavoured number. Daddio opted for a longer drink of 2 capsules and hot frothy milk albeit our Nespresso Aeroccino appears to no…
