Twix Peanut Butter

Twix Peanut Butter

What better way to start the new year than with Peanut Butter! Yes my addiction to peanut butter continues with another peanut butter hybrid and comes in the form of a Twix bar.   Normally Twix bars are tricky to break but without the caramel these snapped pretty easily. The packaging points to a new recipe however not knowing the old recipe, I’m not too sure what the differences are.  Creamy peanut butter covering a chocolate cookie, coated in milk chocolate. Don’t be fooled by the creamy aspect of the peanut butter because although it was smooth it was not creamy like you’d expect…

Ritter Sport Rum Raisins Hazelnuts

Ritter Sport Rum Raisins Hazelnuts

Bournville Old Jamaica has seemingly disappeared from the shelves and frankly I have been mourning the loss of it. Whilst doing a mad dash Sainsbury’s shop the Fathership spied Ritter Sport Rum Raisins Hazelnuts chocolate bar; could this be the answer to our rum raisin chocolate prayers?  At £1.40 for 100g bar, I didn’t think this was too bad. The bar was square with pretty thick chunks, you couldn’t spot the raisins as a solid bar but breaking apart, boy was it jam packed with raisins and hazelnut pieces. Now I am not usually one for nuts in chocolate, and was a little…

Thomas. J. Fudge’s Florentines

Thomas. J. Fudge’s Florentines

Florentines, nutty, caramelly & chocolatey, what could be more perfect? I don’t often buy florentines on the basis a lot on offer has orange peel in and that just isn’t right. Whilst surveying the treats in Waitrose I came across Thomas. J. Fudge’s Florentines, and anything that promises a marvellous merrymaking treasure box is something I cannot pass up.  First off I love the packaging! This treasure box consists of 16 petite milk, white and dark chocolate florentines presented within a cardboard and plastic tray. These little florentines are beyond cute and each were pretty much exactly the same size, thickness…

Are we all feeling festive yet? I know I am, I mean who doesn’t love waking up to it being totally acceptable to have chocolate before anything else!! So being in the festive mood that I am, today’s post is also a festive number in the name of Dairy Milk Snow Bites. A week or so ago I was hit by a snowball. Not just a snowball, oh no, a Dairy Milk snowball no less, and a few days later these little Dairy Milk Snow Bites landed on my doorstep. Solid milk chocolate balls in crisp sugar shells dusted with…

Hotel Chocolat Peanut Butter

Hotel Chocolat Peanut Butter

Another day and another peanut butter find. Now I haven’t come across these before so I can only assume that Hotel Chocolat have released some newbies, and have finally jumped on the peanut butter band wagon. Hurrah!  These selector packs offer 6 chocolates for £3.75, and are all of a perfect size. Enough for a chocolate fix but you can easily have more than one if you fancy it.  Salted peanut praline sealed in a milk chocolate shell You can see from the inside that it is jam packed with praline, which makes for a promising chocolate. I will shock you…
