Continuing from the last Marks and Spencers post that I did that seemed to resonate well with you readers...I felt compelled to give the other goodies a go! I kid you not when I say I tried everything in the biscuit section...gosh, the wonders of gluttony.
Years back, I tried the white chocolate which I deemed to sweet then.
These are possibly the only whities in the collection. Really handy bars to carry around to curb hunger pangs. Priced at $1.50 each, these are surely not as economical as snickers or mars but something adventurous at least!
Lemon Mousse
White and dark chocolate bar with a light lemon mousse center
A simple white chocolate bar with a zesty finish.
Raspberry Mousse and Meringue
White and dark chocolate bar with a raspberry mousse and meringue center
Comparatively more complicated in taste, loved the meringue bits which made this really addictive. The white chocolate is not as sweet as before, possibly negated by the dark chocolate shell. Liked how light the bar tasted, nary the full bodied creaminess of rich chocolates.
I have a soft spot for chocolate coated nibbles and strawberries caught the eye.
Almost the size of real strawberries, except these are air-dried. Loved the contrast in sweet and sour.
Who can resist these gummies? Animal ones too! Three flavours if my tastebuds serve me right, I tend to go for the pink grape ones first and leaving the brown cola ones last.
A spinoff the piglet series with piglet tails! Love this fizzy treat as much.
Strawberry Jam cookies
These cookies are such plain janes in outlook but in a bite, becomes cinderella on a carriage - crunchy cookies with a delectable vanilla cream and sticky jam paste! Finishing the tray was easy peasy.
Rhubarb Crumble
This is one soft cookie I swear by, insanely fragrant. Rhubarb is an in between for me, I do not particularly love nor hate it. Yet this jammy crumble cookie managed to convert this cookie into a delicious crumb licking snack.
Mini Oat Biscuits
The buttery smell was hard to evade, almost like a shortbread in a sable-shaped cookie. Milky aftertaste was addictive. The problem about minis is, it makes consuming it back the pack less sinful.
Lemon Shortbread Thins
Walkers is the benchmark for shortbread fans, but not being one meant I had my reservations on this otherwise perceived to be dense and rich. Shortbread sticks tend to be thick and difficult to nibble over tea - not that I eat in such nibbles but you do get the drift! Surprisingly retaining most of the buttery richness but modifying the biscuit's thinness and making it so easy to eat over tea! Does not help that teapots are imprinted on the cookie - oh sooo cute!
These disappointed somehow, wafer fingers that's all!
Gingerbread Men
These are too cute to say no to. Comes in a variety of shapes - Percy Pig and Easter Rabbits come in butter flavours whilst these Gingerbread Men have a lovely spicy ginger kick to it.
Apart from tasting good, it has never failed to lift the mood and break into the widest grin. Happy food I say!
A festive turn to their usuals.
Definitely more to this with christmas in a month! Looking forward to unveiling what's in my christmas stocking this year!
