Coop Irresistible Cinnamon sugar knots

Unfortunately, I don't have the box for these so used the Coop picture from their website.
Anyway, these sugar knots were nice however it was hard to eat more than one as there was so much chunky brown sugar studded on them.
It was crispy on the outside and soft like cake in the middle with a very buttery taste followed the by the sugary sweetness and cinnamon.


Morrisons Bakewell Tart

I was given this Morrisons Bakewell Tart which I gladly tried as I don't really shop there.
Apart from the lack of almond taste,  the jam made up for it.
I just felt that it the overall bakewell tart was too heavy and oily that taking one bite is enough!





Dark Hazelnut popdots

I always see POPDOTS around at Coop but strangely I haven't been motivated to try them because I get the feeling they are probably dry inside covered in waxy chocolate.
Finally managed to try them as they were reduced to 49p.
They are from Spain which is interesting.
Overall, I would say the doughnut texture is the middle is a bit like brioche without the buttery taste and the chocolate covering with crushed hazelnuts were ok but the hazelnuts were not particularly aromatic.
The popdot as a whole was not too sweet but would not buy again.







New Galaxy Hazelnut flavour creamy truffle mini eggs

My first Easter Egg purchase this year was Galaxy because it is my favourite chocolate.
I also love hazelnut which was the reason I got this.
Compared to the picture, you will find the chocolate layer super thick, at least three times thicker than it is supposed to be.
The hazelnut truffle in the middle can barely be tasted.
Not a bad Easter egg if you love Galaxy.

ASDA Yummy Prawn Toast stars

Who does not like Prawn toast and being star shaped simply makes it even more delicious!





New Halos steamed doughnuts

GIFTED: New Halos steamed doughnuts.
After Christmas, it gets a bit boring especially the few days before you anticipate the new year to come.
Anyway, Halos gave foodies something to look forward to by launching their new doughnuts at ASDA on the 27th December!!
I was really lucky to get my mitts on them as Halos sent me a box to try with chocolate and choc orange.
Note, these are steamed hence the texture is a little different basically cakey.
My favourite of the two is definitely the chocolate because who doesn't like chocolate.
Can't wait to see them launch their other flavours they've developed like the raspberry and lemon.
Overall, I would definitely recommend them, £1.50 at ASDA.

M&S Food Ho Ho Hoisin Duck Dragon Roll

I know M&S Food Hoisin Duck Dragon Roll isn't an authentic sushi roll but I felt I had to give it a try because I liked the combo of ingredients.
I felt that if I didn't try this, I would be regretting for the whole year as some items might not return next Christmas.
Although, crispy onions are not used in traditional sushi, it is quite common in UK and I love it!
The Hoisin Duck Dragon roll is made with a cherry hoisin sauce, crispy onions, umami mayo, and pomegranate.
The taste of this was amazing as you can really taste the cherry as well as the hoisin and then you have the lovely crispy onions as well as other mind blowing spices so it was quite unsual in taste yet delicious.
