Cadbury Dairy Milk Marvellous Creations Banana Caramel Crisp Review
The new Dairy Milk Marvellous Creations bar is finally out in time for Easter, and what a marvellous creation it is indeed! This bar seems to be replacing the Cola Pretzel Honeycomb variety introduced last year, which can now be found in Poundland and other discount stores.
The 200g bar is on introductory offer at Asda for £1.50 at the moment but the RRP will be £2.50. It's described as "Milk chocolate with banana flavoured candy pieces (8%), caramel pieces (5%) and malted cereal balls (3%)", and like the other Marvellous Creations flavours comes in a "crazy paving" style slab. This made it a little awkward to break into pieces, but I managed to find some chunks with bits of banana candy sticking out:
The aroma of the bar had me salivating - it reminded me of the (now discontinued) Dairy Milk with Shortcake Biscuit I used to love, as the cereal pieces had a similar biscuity aroma.
I was fully expecting the chocolate to taste weird due to the banana candy but it was actually pretty normal and tasty! It had a banana, toffee and biscuit synergy that was reminiscent of banoffee pie, but combined with the comforting taste of Dairy Milk. All these familiar elements worked together perfectly. The malt balls reminded me of Maltesers but were more denser and biscuity, providing a lovely crunch together with the caramel pieces. The banana candy wasn't like the foam bananas I remember from childhood, but more of a chewier sweet with a glazed shell.
Overall, although this bar may sound a bit weird since banana isn't a flavour often paired with chocolate (though Gnaw did it well with Go Bananas!), it's actually a rather tasty combination. If it's meant to replace the Cola Pretzel Honeycomb then I think Cadbury made a wise choice, as this bar is a bit more tasty and keeps with the Marvellous Creations theme much better. If you like banoffee pie or banana & chocolate combinations I would recommend giving this a try!

I've been checking my local stores for ages to try and find this! My Asda didn't seem to have it yet when I was last in! Can't wait to try this!
ReplyDeleteSounds delicious since I love chocolate-banana and chocolate-caramel combinations. I also like the contrast of yellow and purple on the packaging and I look forward to trying the bar itself soon.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting - I somehow missed that this one was even on its way! I'll be a bit gutted if it does replace the cookie nut crunch variety, though, as I much prefer that to the jelly popping candy shells.
ReplyDeleteGreat review as always :)
I bought one of these from asda today on offer at £ 1 and for the price didn't dissapoint

ReplyDeleteIt's ok if you like that fake banana taste! Pound stretcher has the 47g bar reduced to 25p, but I won't be rushing back
