The Grown Up Chocolate Company Praline Cups

What could be one of the best things to receive in the post? Chocolate! I was lucky enough to be contacted by The Grown Up Chocolate Company who offered to send me some of their new delights to try and I couldn’t say no. Today’s review is all about their new Spectacular Speculicious Praline Cups* and Heavenly Whole Hazelnut Praline Cups*. I have been a fan of The Grown Up Chocolate Company for a couple of years now and have yet to come across one that I don’t actually love. My favourite so far is still their Superb Salted Peanut Caramel,…

Snickers Protein Bars

Protein bars are something I have dabbled in in the past, some of which were horrendous and some were pretty nice especially when microwaved and they go a bit like cookie dough or fudgy brownies. Today is along those lines in the sense of a Snickers Protein Bar. Yes a protein bar that is a Snickers but healthier for you, say it isn’t so.  We all know those pesky chocolate bars scupper our hard work at the gym or our nice long walk or any form of exercise for that matter. Mars have however come up with a solution. Snickers and…

Caramel M&M’s Are Finally a Thing!

First there were the Candy Corn M&M’s, then the Minty ones and the slightly bizarre Strawberry Nut. I know I said I wasn’t going to partake in anymore M&M’s for a while, but things change and I am a sucker for the variations. The quest continues today with Caramel M&M’s  Whilst perusing American Fizz, I don’t know why I kid myself and even look thinking I won’t buy anything, but anyway there I was looking for something new and exciting and among other things I purchased, I spied this ‘share’ size bag of M&M’s.  After much anticipation these were released in America in…

M&S Chunky Peanut Butter Chocolates

I take no credit for this find as I hadn’t the foggiest that these M&S Chunky Peanut Butter Chocolates even existed. My mum is the one who found this bright yellow box of delights in M&S last week, and I for one am happy that they have continued to embrace peanut butter.  Designed to be a little gift to someone I sadly do not know how much these were. What I do know is that these individually wrapped milk chocolates are filled with layers of soft chocolate fudge,  salted peanuts and peanut butter. Sounds wonderful doesn’t it! Per 100g: 514 kcal, 11.7g…

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…
