Cadbury's Pandan coconut chocolate

I love Pandan, so I had to get my hands on the Cadbury's pandan coconut chocolate which is available in Asia!
Finally got some hold of them and they were divine as expected.
When you open the wrapper, you get this strong aromatic pandan aroma but to my surprise, there was another gold foil wrap to unwrap.
Visually, there are a lot of coconut pieces in the chocolate.
Tasting the chocolate, it was like your usual Cadbury chocolate laced with lots of crisp and soft coconut bits.
The pandan flavour works really well interestingly but it could be stronger however there is a slight bitter aftertaste like fresh pandan.
Overall, it was really enjoyable and I am quite gutted I didn't find out about the Cadbury Durian flavour which I will have to try at some point.

HiP Oat Milk Salty Pretzel chocolate (vegan)

This is another tasty chocolate that if I ate blind folded I wouldn't of known it was vegan.
It tasted like dark chocolate with salty kick so the saltiness was delivered and then you get these lovely crunchy bits in the chocolate which are the pretzel pieces.
Overall, I was impressed because the taste was good, and the sweeteners used didn't taste artificial.

Egg Royale, The decadent drinkable Easter Egg liqueur [Gifted]

I totally fell in love this with Easter Egg liqueur when I first saw it at the corner shop.
That glass chocolate egg bottle is such a winner and what a way to spend Easter drinking a decadent chocolate liqueur.
You can really taste the chocolate as well as the spirit, great to go a long with Easter Eggs.
Thank you Gravity drinks for gifting me this heavenly chocolate drink which is a must for anyone who loves chocolate.

Bakewell Tart chocolate pizza by The Gourmet chocolate pizza co

I have always been a fan of The Gourmet chocolate pizza co after seeing their booth last year showcasing cute mini chocolate pizzas.
Bakewell Tart is a British favourite and mine too as I love cherry bakewell anything.
Definitely fit for the King's Coronation in May with the blue sleeve and Union Jack bunting.
I am so glad it was a seven inch size chocolate because it was that good!
The taste that you got was Cherry bakewell so I am sold, not only the taste you have this lingering moreish aftertaste as well like Mr Kiplings.
As well as the flavour being spot on, their chocolate was dreamy so you can imagine a silky Galaxy infused Cherry bakewell and then you get slivers of crisp flaked almonds and dried cherries which take you to Cherry bakewell chocolate heaven.
I am so glad they nailed it because there have been many Cherry Bakewell inspired failures that didn't hit the spot.
Visually, I felt that it would be good if there was less white chocolate curls so that you can see the almond flakes to give it more of that bakewell tart appearance.

Morrisons 35p Milk chocolate

The Morrisons 35p Milk chocolate is something I would never buy because of the price but only because I had a 5 pound Amazon fresh voucher.
When I have vouchers, I normally get things I wouldn't buy or get something with a price that matches the value so I use it in one go.
This time I decided to use it on a Morrison branded product as well as an amazon branded one.
I didn't have any expectations on the chocolate but I think it was the vanilla that made it tasty and the chocolate had a nice snap as well.

Salted caramel HIP oat milk chocolate

I have always wanted to try HIP chocolates which are made with oat milk.
Finally tried it because there were samples at IFE 2022.
I tried the salted caramel which was actually quite nice and unsuspectingly vegan and you could really taste the grains of salt at the end.
Although I liked it, I feel that I can only give it a proper review when I have tried the creamy original one.

Nestle Smarties mini

Smarties are just Smarties, everyone knows what they are.
I bought these Smarties because they were minis!!
They are just too cute!






Nestle Damak pistachio chocolate from Turkey

Spotted this Nestle Damak pistachio chocolate bar at the local corner shop so decided to try it.
It was quite delicious with generous amounts of pistachio which are visible.
I was impressed that there were some whole pistachio nuts in there because often crushed nuts are used as they are cheaper.
The inside of the paper wrapper was also printed with some information on it.
Rating: 4/5






Other chocolate in the Nestle Damak range:
damak white chocolate pistachio, 1927 Ekstra suilu, Bol Sutlu, almond orange white chocolate

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Cocoa Bircher

Bircher oats is a cold, fruity porridge. The oats and apple are steeped in liquid overnight, plumping and softening.
I have been contemplating whether to get it or not before I thought it was going to be very chocolatey.
Once I tried it, the taste was so different to what I was expecting.
It was like thick oats with a natrual yoghurt taste followed by chocolate.
Each spoonful was loaded with apples and I even found an apple stalk.
Overall a nice dessert that looks chocolatey but not sweet at all packed with finely shredded apples.

Modern After Eights with gin and tonic, strawberry as well as orange

With all these new After Eight flavours, gin and tonic is definitely my pick.
Modern After Eights with gin and tonic at Sainsbury.
The dark chocolate was good and tasted better from the fridge as I followed the tip saying best served cold.
The fondant filling was mintier than the strawberry after eight but somehow lacked any taste of gin.
Overall nice but the fondant was too sweet.

After Eight Orange & Mint at Asda


After Eights Strawberry &Mint at Poundland.
These were launched ages ago along with orange mint and gin tonic but I didn't try them back then.
Anyway finally tried them and loved them.
The pairing of strawberry and mint is odd but it worked.
When you open the box you get that lovely chocolate strawberry smell that you get from quality street strawberry creams.
The taste is similar to that with subtle mint flavours so sometimes its like eating a chocolate strawberry creme and sometimes like a regular after eight.
