Cadbury Dairy Milk Winter Wonderland: Tree-shaped Milk & White Chocolate Bar Review

-
New limited edition white and milk chocolate Dairy Milk bar for Christmas with tree shaped chunks

 As well as the new "Dairy Milk Snowy Delight", I was pleased to find this limited edition Dairy Milk Winter Wonderland bar in Tesco recently. It's one of the few Christmas products I've been truly excited about and that's only because of the unique tree-shaped blocks! They look fanatstic; I don't think I've ever seen a chocolate bar that looks quite this cool before!

The blocks break off fairly easily and cleanly, which is quite a feat considering their unique shape. They can be split into diagonal rows:

 ...or individual chunks:

 ...or even three-chunk triangles!

The bar comprises mostly of Dairy Milk, with the white pieces containing a layer of white on top of milk chocolate. The white chocolate amounts to 12% of the bar in total.

The chocolate tasted delicious; it was exactly as you'd expect from Dairy Milk, but with an extra hit of creaminess from the white chocolate. The flavours blended together perfectly for a creamy, sweet treat.

It reminded me of the somewhat similar Milka Happy Cows, which also contains white on milk chocolate, however I think this bar is far superior thanks to the tree-shaped chunks!

Overall, this is a fantastic limited edition from Cadbury and one I really can't fault. The tree-shaped chunks are a unique idea and really festive - they'd make a great decoration for cookies, cupcakes...or even mince pies!

Price: £1.40 for a 100g bar at Tesco. Also spotted for £1 at Sainsbury's and The Co-Op.
Suitable for vegetarians?: Yes.
Allergy Information: Contains milk and soya. May contain nuts and wheat.
Nutrition Information (per quarter of bar): 133 Calories, 7.7g Fat (4.8g Saturates), 14g Carbohydrates (14g Sugars).

RATING: 9 out of 10.

 *Apologies for the overload of photos...I thought this bar looked so nice it really deserved showing off!

    I can really picture this decorating so many baked goods this Christmas, a very good idea on Cadbury's part!

    Yum! I can't wait to try this - I can imagine getting through quite a lot of bars this Christmas as I will no longer be purchasing Cadburys Roses due to the introduction of coffee cremes...ughhh.

    I really didn't like this particular product. I must admit that Cadbury have excelled themselves with the rather lovely Christmas Tree design, but the bar itself tasted bland and was uninspiring taste wise.

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 pr...

Sainsbury's Brussels Sprouts & Pigs In Blankets Tea Review

So recently I set myself the challenge of taking one for the team and doing a review of these new novelty Christmas teas from Sainsbury's. Both are available for £1 a box with 20 teabags in each. As well as these I saw some Chocolate Orange, Christmas Spice and Fizzy teas that sounded more appealing and hopefully I'll also review those at some point. I also bought some Teapigs Christmas Tea... but more on that later! The Pigs In Blankets tea is described as "Lapsang souchong teabags with sage and rosemary", which made be shudder immediately. I absolutely loathe lapsang souchong tea, it's the one tea I could never drink more than a mouthful of, and even then I had to spit it out! If you've never tried Lapsang Souchong  before it's basically smoked tea (click link for more info). Now I presume they decided to use such a horrible tea because the smoky flavour is like smoky bacon? The only other ingredients in the tea are sage, rosemary, apple pieces an...
