[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers British Raspberries

It is hard to get ripe and sweet raspberries but these raspberries from M&S were so good.
Each and every one was ripe and sweet.

[Review] Raspberry Maltesers from Austrailia

I was excited when I found these Raspberry Maltesers in the shop.
There was also Vanilla Shake Maltesers.

Decided to get the Raspberry as I could imagine the Vanilla just being sweet and sugary.
When I opened the bag, the smell of raspberries was there but it wasn't prominent in taste.
Dark chocolate might be better to complement the raspberry taste because it was very sweet as a whole.

Anyway I hope they will come up with ruby chocolate maltesers ones day.

[Review] Tesco Raspberry Turnovers

A turnover is a pastry that is folded over in a shape of a triangle filled with a filling.
The sweet version is usually apple and cream.
At Tesco, they had raspberry so decided to try it.

The raspberry turnover was quite nice, it was filled with raspberry sauce as expected and fluffy fresh cream while the puff pastry was light and flakey.
Overall I still prefer apple because raspberry seeds can be quite annoying.

Nestle Crunch Kıtır Frambuazlı

Nestle Crunch White chocolate with crisped rice and raspberry candy

In Turkey, they have CRUNCH White chocolate with crisped rice and raspberry candy.

I do not usually buy white chocolate because it is too sweet but since this one was a Turkish edition I tried it.

Surprisingly it was delicious, the white chocolate was not too sweet or creamy.

The tiny raspberry candy balls made it sweet.

There is a chocolate crisped rice, hazelnut and pistachio version too.

SUGUS Raspberry flavour chews

SUGUS Raspberry flavour chews is a new flavour in the Sugas range.

To my disappointment all sugus sweet taste the same, they all have a strong Japanese yakult taste to it
and the raspberry flavouring was so faint!

Emmi Swiss Premium yoghurt

Tried the Emmi Swiss yogurts which has six flavours: aloe vera, pineapple, raspberry, apple apricot and blueberry.
Aloe vera and raspberry tasted the best. The pineapple was slightly sour.

Häagen-Dazs Secret Sensations meringue & raspberry fondant

Previously tried the Häagen-Dazs Secret Sensations creme brulee and the Häagen-Dazs Secret Sensations chocolate fondant.
This time they had Häagen-Dazs Secret Sensations meringue & raspberry fondant so tried it as well.

Basically it is vanilla ice-cream with pieces of meringue in it and the centre is liquid raspberry jam/syrup.

When I tried it, it just tasted like Walls Raspberry ripple with pieces of crispy meringue in it.

McCafe and McDonalds: Taiwan

The McDonalds website for Taiwan was extremely boring and there was nothing interesting on the main menu.
However the menu for McCafe in Taiwan was slightly better.

The items I would like to try would be Taro vanilla cake and the raspberry mousse cake!

McCafe: Czechoslovakia

Not quite sure what these are but the bottom picture is a raspberry cream cake.

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.

Victoria mini classics by Mr Kipling

My favourite cakes, however they were slightly too hard and sweet, but after refrigerating them they tasted slightly better.

(source from Wiki)

The Victoria sponge cake was named after Queen Victoria, who favoured a slice of the sponge cake with her afternoon tea. It is often referred to simply as sponge cake, though it contains additional fat. A typical Victoria sponge consists of raspberry jam and whipped double cream or vanilla cream. The jam and cream are sandwiched between two sponge cakes; the top of the cake is not iced or decorated apart from a dusting of icing sugar. However the Women's Institute do not class this as a Victoria sponge. Their version only has raspberry jam as the filling and is dusted with caster sugar, not icing sugar.^[10]

A Victoria sponge is made using one of two methods. The traditional method involves creaming caster sugar with fat (usually butter), mixing thoroughly with beaten egg, then folding flour and raising agent into the mixture. The modern method, using an electric mixer or food processor, involves simply whisking all the ingredients together until creamy.^[7][9][8] Additionally, the modern method typically uses an extra raising agent, and some recipes call for an extra-soft butter or margarine.^{[citation needed]} Both the traditional and modern methods are relatively quick and simple, producing consistent results, making this type of mixture one of the most popular for children and people in a hurry. This basic 'cake' mixture has been made into an endless variety of treats and puddings, including fairy cakes, butterfly cakes, chocolate cake, Eve's pudding and many others.^[7][9][8]

Other names for the Victoria Sponge are Victoria Sandwich and, less commonly, Victorian Cake.

Although simple to make, Victoria sponge recipes are notoriously sensitive to cooking times and temperatures. As such, oven manufacturers often use a Victoria sponge recipe to test their ovens.

Quakers Oat So Simple raspberry and pomegranite

A nice combination of fuschia colours of raspberry and pomegranite.

Both my favourite especially pomegranite.

When I opened it, the smell of raspberry and pomegranite was strong.

I added boiling water instead of milk without microwaving it and it still turned out ok.

The raspberry and pomegranite taste was not as strong as the smell and the sweetness was just right.

Kellogg's Chocolate & Raspberry bar

Was really excited about this cereal bar, firstly it is a branded one by a well known cereal company called Kellogg's and secondly I love the combination of dark chocolate and raspberry.

When I ripped open the packet, the smell of raspberry was strong.
It was lovely and chewy with chocolate at the bottom.

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.

Millefeuille aux Framboises haagan daz - Royal dessert

Out of all Häagen-Dazs products, I felt that this one was the best.

It was frozen form of Millefeuille, the custard had been replaced with rich custard ice-cream.
The dessert was topped with crushed flakey pieces and layered with custard ice-cream and raspberry sauce.

If there were more layers of flakey pieces, it would have tasted better.
From experience, I would recommend eating it after a while rather than rock hard frozen.
