Cadbury Wispa Ice Cream Bars Review

-

Wispa is such an iconic chocolate bar that I had very high hopes for this icecream version when I bought it recently. I enjoyed the Double Decker ice cream bars in this range so assumed the Wispa variety would be just as tasty.


Unfortunately they were very boring. The ice creams contain small pieces of Wispa which could be any chocolate quite frankly, because they add very little to the taste or texture of the ice cream. The icecream itself is a basic chocolate ice cream and quite unremarkable. It all meshes together into a generic milky sweetness that is rather boring. I think a better idea would have been a Wispa Gold ice cream, with a full layer of Wispa chocolate, icecream and a layer of caramel. It would fit the name of Wispa much better than simply adding tiny bits of Wispa to substandard chocolate ice cream!


Overall, these ice cream bars were a big disappointment and in my opinion don't do justice to the iconic chocolate bar that is the Wispa.

RATING: 5 out of 10. 

 Price: £1.25.
Allergy Information: Contains milk, soya, may contain nuts.
Suitable for vegetarians?: Yes.

    What a shame, although I've always thought it was the texture that makes a Wispa special, so I guess that would be hard to replicate in ice cream form!

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
