Luxury chocolate bars by Barnaby

Stumbled upon this sign saying Test Kitchen so went closer to have a look expecting cooked food but it turns out to be lots of chocolate bars.

As a curious foodie, I asked what they were and was told it was freshly made waffles covered in chocolate.
I'm not a fan of waffles but decided to give it a try.
There were a few flavours that day: red velvet cream, tiramisu, cookies dough, hazelnut pretzel so I went for the red velvet.
The pricing was confusing as there were classics and creams which isn't clearly labelled but it seems they have different flavours everyday to test the market.
It turns out the red velvet was a cream so I paid 4 pounds for it.
Taking a bite, I was impressed and glad it wasn't for the bin.
The chocolate was thick that it cracked like a big Easter egg and it was a nice chocolate as well which was smooth and rich.
Inside there was chewy red layers of red velvet waffles which I am not sure was meant to be chewy or crisp but chewy is better in my opinion.
There was the dreamy white chocolate cream in between which was heaven.
Although they are described as chocolate covered waffles, I felt that they were like posh chocolate bars to the next level.
Visited a few days later to get some for my friend so got to try their hot chocolate which was indulgent.
I managed to chat to the guy and they said they will have choc ices for the summer which I simply can't wait.
Returned again for the Matchstick bar which has marshmallow inside.
They are really popular now that all the bars were sold out so I got a freshly made one.
It wasn't that cold today and because the bar was freshly made I didn't expect it to have that satisfying crack which I was right and the marshmallow was a bit soft.
Knowing that I put the other one in the fridge and it was so much nicer as the marshmallow became more chewy and the chocolate had a nice snap to it.
Again, I really liked this new Matchstick bar because it was like chocolate teacake in a bar.
Will be back if they have anymore interesting flavours and the summer for the ice cream bars which I can foresee being like a tasty snickers/mars ice cream bar.
