Kev's Snack Reviews

Recently Guylian offered to send me a box of chocolates...not for me, for my Valentine of course...so I couldn't really refuse that! They arrived promptly by courier, and as soon as I gave them to my Valentine (before Valentine's Day of course...oh it's a tough job being a snacks reviewer!), before I knew it half the box had vanished. I think that's testament to just how tasty they are! They're "hazelnut praline filled chocolate hearts", and of course very similar to the Seashells Guylian are most well-known for. Rich Belgian chocolate, creamy hazelnut praline...what more could you want? Overall, if you're stuck for a Valentines gift this weekend you can't go far wrong with these Guylian chocolates. They're far nicer than Milk Tray or Dairy Box so do the right thing and go for these instead! You may be rewarded for it later... ;) 8.5 out of 10

Some new Christmas goodies spotted in shops recently...I predict these are just the tip of the iceberg! Nestlé Aero Milk Chocolate Bubble : At first I thought this was an Easter Egg! It's a similar concept...a hollow milk chocolate "bubble" containing milk chocolate Aero Bubbles. I wonder if this idea will take off? Spotted at Morrisons. Toblerone Triangle Block : As cool as this looks I'll wait until the large white chocolate Toblerone's are reduced in price to get my Toblerone fix this year. Available in most supermarkets.  Guylian Caramel Belgian Seashells : Also new for Christmas this year are these Guylian caramel seashells. I'm not sure if they contain soft caramel or a caramel flavoured filling...if anyone's tried them please let me know! Spotted at Tesco & WH Smiths.  Also available in  Crunchy Biscuit . And in small boxes of  Vanilla flavour (Poundland). Plus mini boxes of Nestlé Dairy Box are available in Poundland. As well...
