Whittard Crème Brûlée White Hot Chocolate Review

-

When I tried the Rhubarb White Hot Chocolate from Whittard recently I also saw this Crème Brûlée White variety. There were large tubs but I decided to go for a small sachet incase I didn't like it. I'm glad I did because this was a very sweet combination indeed, although it was very nice. I wouldn't want a whole tub but as a one-off it made for a tasty change - it has a subtle burnt toffee flavour which compliments the milkiness of the white chocolate very well. It tasted pretty much how you'd expect Crème Brûlée in hot chocolate form to.

Overall, a tasty hot chocolate with a unique flavour, although for me it's just a little too sweet. If you like white chocolate I would definitely recommend giving it a try.

As well as this flavour Whittard do Strawberry and Lemon Meringue white hot chocolates. I really want to try them at some point and hope Whittard also do them in sachets!

Check out the full range on their website here:

Price: Can't remember but I think it was less than a pound. The large tubs are £5.50.
Ingredients: Suitable for vegetarians & coeliacs.
Allergy Advice: Contains milk & whey.

Pringles Salted Egg Review

Another weird snack and this time it’s Salted Egg Flavour Pringles! These are apparently popular in other parts of the word so maybe not as weird as they may seem to us Brits... and they’re actually not so bad! Not as eggy as I expected - I had visions of an awful gaseous pong coming from the tub, haha! - but just a slight salty egg flavour.   If you’re curious, find them from www.gbgifts.co.uk (gifted).

Asda Tinned Banana Blossom Review

Recently, I spotted a totally new vegetable/fruit (not sure which it actually is!) in Asda called Banana Blossom in a tin. It was next to the tins of Jackfruit which is a well known vegan meat alternative. I assumed it was a similar thing so happily bought some to try - it’s £1.50 a tin. The image on the wrapper looked innocent enough - battered fish pieces, only vegan! Surely this stuff must be good? Turns out that packaging was very misleading because nothing could prepare me for the horror that was lurking inside...when I opened the tin it was like opening something from a horror film, discovering the mouldy body of an ancient alien creature or other such evil. It looked hideous!! “Surely this is not meant for human consumption?!”, I thought. Heck it’s not even suitable for bird consumption....I think flies would even turn their nose up at this thing, which looked like rotten infested seaweed. When I posted this on my  Instagram  page the responses were predictably

Lidl Way To Go Fin Carre Ethical Chocolate

I recently spotted some new funky looking bars in Lidl, and instantly they reminded me of Tony’s Chocolonely bars, the ethical brand that launched last year donating money to helping end slavery in cocoa production. I’ve always loved the Tony’s brand and I think in 2020, more than ever, we need more ethically produced products - it should be expected, let’s be honest! So it’s always nice to see another brand like this even if it’s essentially copying Tony’s. I got the dark chocolate version to try as I was curious how it would be compared to other dark chocolates. In hindsight this was a mistake, as the actual chocolate is nothing extraordinary. It’s nice enough and good quality don’t get me wrong but it has no particular distinct flavour to make me buy it again. I’ll certainly try the other two flavours which are Milk Chocolate and Almond and Sea Salt, and I do like the chunky haphazard block design that mimics Tony’s Chocolonely. It’s a shame through that Lidl don’t just stock
