Alpen Light Jaffa Cake & Banoffee

Cereal bars, the saviour of keeping those hunger pangs at bay and eating whilst on the run. It’s been a long time since Alpen Light has given us some new flavours but the time has finally come, enter Alpen Light Jaffa Cake and Alpen Light Banoffee. Browsing the aisles at Sainsbury’s, yes that’s right I found these in Sainsbury’s no less, I was just about to pick up the usual Cherry Bakewell and Chocolate & Fudge when I spied these. I have got to say I was pretty darn excited to see these two flavours, and even more eager to try them.  Jaffa…

Peanut Butter Oreo UK

Reese’s Peanut Butter Oreo Mini

Do you bite or do you twist and lick? Either way two of the nations favourite treats have been fused together to create the Reese’s Peanut Butter Oreo, and they are a must try! It is no secret in our house that I am a fully fledged peanut butter addict, and will buy pretty much anything that has PB in it for that very factor. Oreos are all the craze in America and the number of flavours are quite frankly insane. Double stuff, Golden, Red Velvet, Fudge covered, Strawberry Milkshake, Cookie Dough and even 100kcal Oreos; you name it they…
