Digestive Jaffa Cakes

Branded collaborations are clearly having their moment. We previously had the Creme Egg Oreos, there’s  the newly launched Club Mint Digestives (still looking), the Monster Munch peanuts (coming to the blog soon), and then these Digestive Jaffa Cakes. They have taken the classic digestive and given it a layer of orange flavour caramel and then covered them in a milk chocolate flavour coating. These are £2.25 a pack, although they are usually on offer somewhere, and you can buy them in all supermarkets. They’re sweet, chewy, and undeniably delicious, offering something a little different from your standard chocolate digestive. The…

Terry’s Chocolate Orange Cream Egg

The viral Terry’s Chocolate Orange Cream Egg has hit shelves and is taking on the Creme Egg head on. Yes Easter has been taking over the supermarket aisles since Christmas but I think we can safely say we are now all here for it.

They smell exactly like the OG and are not particularly sealed well so are easy to split in half to reveal the fluorescent orange filling. The chocolate it think and creamy…

Interesting not as vibrantly orange as I imagined, although if they do get a little wet they turn luminous orange.…

M&S Loaded Jaffa Cheesecake Wedges

These M&S Loaded Jaffa Cheesecake Wedges have been out for a while but I thought it was about time I give them a whirl. You can buy these singularly or it is worth checking if it is part of the dine in for £12. Each pack contains two wedges and promises to deliver a chocolate cheesecake with tangy orange sauce topping and chocolate brownie chunks. For a cheesecake it is all about the base for me. If you have a naff biscuity base then you aren’t onto a winning cheesecake. Here we have a seriously crumbly chocolatey base that is rich…
