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,…

Mrs Freshley’s Peanut Butter Swiss Rolls & Wafers

For those that follow me on Instagram and Twitter you will have seen earlier today a little delivery had arrived from Candy Hero that held some exciting goodies. I couldn’t decide which to go with first so today’s review is a double whammy of peanut butter with Mrs Freshley’s Peanut Butter Swiss Rolls and Mrs Freshley’s Peanut Butter Wafers.  2 Pack – Peanut Butter Creme Filled Chocolate Cakes Can we take a moment to admire how pretty these look, I almost didn’t want to crack them open.. almost. I was pretty impressed that these were so together, not a crack in either…

Sainsbury’s Salted Caramel Torte

Pudding, who doesn’t love a good pudding. One of the many wonders is that no matter how full you are, if a pudding presents itself you magical find room for a good wedge. The salted caramel trend seems to be phasing out but there are still a few products that slip onto the Supermarket shelves rather unnoticed, and today’s review is Sainsbury’s Salted Caramel Torte.  A sweet chocolate sponge with vanilla flavoured batter and a salted caramel glaze  Not quite what comes to mind when you think of a torte, but it did look ever so inviting. The chocolate cake isn’t…

Cadbury Big Taste Toffee Whole Nut

As you all know Cadbury have given us some hulk of a chocolate bar that comes in 3 varieties, Toffee Whole Nut, Oreo Crunch and Triple Choc Sensation which I reviewed earlier this week, (which you can read here if you missed it).  This bar is 26cm long, 9.5cm in width, and 300g in weight and this reflects in the price of £3 per bar. Yes it maybe a beast of a bar but there really is something I begrudge about paying £3 for a bar of Cadbury Dairy Milk.  Milk chocolate with toffee flavoured filling (32%), Caramel (10%) and hazelnuts…

McVitie’s Digestives Nibbles – Dark Chocolate & Double Chocolate

Last week I reviewed the New McVitie’s Digestives Nibbles in Milk Chocolate and Caramel, and whilst doing the old shoperoo at Waitrose I spied the other two flavours and had to give them ago. So alongside the former two varieties, McVitie’s have also released Dark Chocolate and Double Chocolate, which makes sense really given aside from Chocolate Orange Digestives these two are the only other chocolate digestive flavours they do. Each bag was £1.89 so let’s get nibbling.  These smelt deliciously dark and had a thick dark glossy coating to match. I was rather excited by these as in our…
