Ovaltine sandwich cookies with chocolate malt cream

Tried these biscuits that were Ovaltine flavoured, however the Ovaltine flavour was not that strong.
Judging by the packet, it seems that these are a Thailand version.

Borlands AUSTRALIA Macadamia nut and choc chip butter shortbread

Tasted just like a buttery cookie with chocolate and nut pieces.
It seems that shortbreads are popular in Auz and NZ and they have lots of flavours too such as kiwifruit shortbread.

Tita KC's creation Pacencia White Wheat Drop Cookies

It's weird this Philipino product has Chinese and French on it.

The cookies were very sweet and hard.

Cafe Bronte Currant & Dark chocolate soft cookie




This soft cookie was quite nice, I was surprised the shape was a long rectangle!
Anyway there was generous oats and currants in it.

River Mill Cookies

These NZ butter cookies come in three flavours: Manuka honey, kiwi and golden kiwi.

I only got hold of the Manuka honey and the kiwi.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Manuka honey cookies:
I do not usually like these butter cookies but the taste of the manuka honey went well with the buttery taste.

















++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Kiwi cookies:
I didnt know what to expect but initially I thought it was weird having kiwi in the cookie but then I realised NZ is famous for Kiwi's.
What was more surprising, my friend my Auz said it was weird too, but I assumed Auz and NZ were similar.

Subway's Raspberry cheesecake cookie

The usual cookie flavours sold at Subway are classic chocolate chip, white chocolate with macadamia nuts, M&Ms, oatmeal raisin, and peanut butter.
The Raspberry cheesecake flavour was launched in the US about a year ago, and as a Valentine's edition in Singapore so when I saw the Raspberry cheesecake I just had to try it..

Visually you could see lots of red raspberry bits in it and white chocolate pieces.
The raspberry tasted really nice but the white chocolate bits were too sugary.

Soft baked Nantucket Dark chocolate cookies

Previously tried the Soft baked Sanibel cookies .

I wanted to try the Sonoma which is dark chocolate and almond cherries but they didnt stock it.

So I bought the Nantucket which is just soft cookies with dark chocolate chunks.
The sweetness was just right, however it did not have that Mrs. Fields cookie magic to it.
The chocolate tasted like cheap cooking chocolate, but there was generous pieces of chocolate in it.

Japanese FIGARO cookies

Nice cookies from Japan, however I could not find their website.
The cookies were light and crumble in your mouth.
The sweetness was just right.

Taipan's abalone cookies

These cookies are packaged in a tin that resembles a brand of tinned abalone sold in Hong Kong.

Soft baked Sanibel cookies

These soft American cookies are simply sugar and cinammon flavoured.
I want to try the Sonoma which is dark chocolate and almond cherry but they didnt stock it.
Anyway, the pepperidge farm products are a fun range with interesting names for each product.
These cookies were ok, but a bit too sweet, but the cinammon was nice and strong though.

Nestle MAXIBON Cookie Ice-cream



Not bad, but I didnt like the chocolate end and it was messy as well!
Advice for eating:
Hold the biscuit side and eat the chocolate end first, or you'll end up with the chocolate side collapsing when you hold that end.

Kullanard's mangosteen fruit cookies

Was attracted by Kullanard's cookie range because of its unusual flavours, not unusual in Thailand but unusual for places that do not sell them!
The cookie flavours were: mangosteen, mango and durian.


mangosteen, mango or durian

I got the mangosteen flavour because the other two I could roughly imagine the taste.
The cookies were convenient, they were individually packed.

Individual packets

The cookie itself was softer than I expected, but had a nice mangosteen aroma to it.
It was slightly pinkish too.
It tasted like a Ribena flavoured cookie!


As well as cookies they had crispy rolls, the ones I found interesting were Tom Yum Gung, Banana flavour!

Molly Woppy chocolate and raspberry moments



Chocolate & raspberry

Got these from the Supermarket, which were imported from New Zealand.
I thought they were going to taste like chocolate cookies with cream in the middle, but it was actually chocolate shortbread.
The chocolate short bread was very buttery just like normal shortbread, and the creamy filling in the centre had real raspberry pips inside.
The only downside, was that it was shaped like a ball, and it was too big for my mouth.

Crabtree and Evelyn Orange and butter cookies


Crabtree and Evelyn are a brand that sells famous luxuries for the body, so it was interesting when they introduced a fine food section, so I tried their cookies.

Nice elegant packaging that contains orange butter cookies inside the rolled cardboard tin.
Each cookie is thin in thickness, however its texture is like a cross between a shortbread and a cookie, less of a crunch.
The cookie contains alot of orange peel in it, and has a jaffa taste rather than citrus flavouring which complements the buttery flavour.
On the aftertaste, there was a slight mintyness to it.
Other cookie flavours include all butter hazelnut,  chocolate, lemon, breakfast, oat and cranberry, strawberry and cream, white chocolate and raspberry, shortbread.
