Peanut Toffee Cookie Marvellous Creation

This one is a really bold statement as far as flavour goes, and it is my favourite of the three marvellous creations, let's take a look.

Starting with the chocolate, it's that distinct Cadbury flavour but it's actually a minor player in the flavour profile of this product, one of the major players is the peanut which has been dry roasted and only slightly crushed. The cookie portion adds a lot of texture to the pieces and is a nice vanilla flavour but the real secret to why I like this flavour is the toffee.

I've been seeing salted caramel used in a lot of things now and wondered what the fuss was about, but in this marvellous creation I understand why. The toffee has a distinctive saltiness that balances perfectly with the rich flavour of the peanut and the sweetness of the chocolate, plus it adds a third texture to the chocolate pieces which makes every bite different. Delicious!

So much going on in this bar and I enjoy eating it. I do buy this fairly often, I will talk about the third flavour at a later date and the problems arising out of using certain types of products in chocolate.

Hot Fudge Sundae Poptarts

Hi there, it's been quite a while since I've posted but I hope to post more frequently from now on, so here's my first one, Hot Fudge Sunday Poptarts!

I was quite excited to try this flavour because they are part of the Ice Cream Shoppe series which is related to the Rainbow Cookie Sandwich which I loved. These are frosted unlike the Rainbow ones and as I've said before the frosting doesn't really do anything for me, it hardly registers as you eat them.

Anyway, now to the delicious part, the filling! This is what I was looking for, great flavour, a sweet vanilla taste yummo.

Now to something I learnt while eating the first of these poptarts, the chocolate pastry doesn't really work. It seems a bit bitter and a little bland, maybe it would be easier to eat if the pastry was a little softer or maybe it just needs to taste a bit better. When eaten with the filling, the casing tastes nice, but the corners weren't as nice.

Overall I'd say it's a nice poptart, but I prefer the plain pastry which gives the filling the focus in the flavour profile.
