Krispy Kreme Lotus Billionaires & Lotus White Chocolate & Raspberry

This week saw 2 new additions to the Krispy Kreme Lotus Doughnut Family – Lotus Billionaire & Lotus White Chocolate and Raspberry. We all know that I think the original Krispy Kreme Lotus Biscoff Doughnut is like heaven in a doughy biscuity ball, however I have got to say I wasn’t all that bowled over by these two new additions.

For both of us it involved our…

Hotel Chocolat Peanut Butter Slab

Happy Easter Everyone!! I hope that the Easter Bunny has bought you all lots of goodies. It is only fitting that we have a chocolate review today and why not be a devil and throw in some peanut butter as well! A while back I reviewed Hotel Chocolat Peanut Butter Selectors and was left bitterly disappointed at how they had completely missed the peanut butter mark. From there I was intrigued as to whether their Peanut Butter Slab, which is aimed at crunchy peanut butter lovers, would actually hit the spot and more importantly taste like peanut butter. Enter today’s review,…
