OMG, omg, omg, look what Darrell found in B M Bargains this morning ……..
…….. only ……. Milky Bar Raspberry! I can’t believe we never even knew it was a thing!
Judging from the bumf on the back, we’re pretty sure said store sourced them in Australia, Allen’s being an Australian sweet that inspired this Milky Bar combo.
Darrell was so excited at finding this confectionious delicacy that he’s forgotten how much he paid for it, but let’s just say it wouldn’t have been anywhere near the prices that people are currently asking on eBay or Amazon (have a look), and, as ever, it would have been rude of him not to make a considered purchase, in order for us to bring you one of our on the button and insightful comestible reviews.
On unwrapping we immediately saw that our very favourite white chocolate of choice was generously packed with raspberry, jelly pieces and the two flavours really went well together. We really, really liked the meld ………..
…….. however, though we loved the mix of tastes, if we are brutally honest, none of us are that fond of a jelly type sweet, it’s a texture thing, when the chocolate had melted away, the raspberry pieces lingered, needing to be chewed a little bit more. Perhaps instead of jelly we might perhaps prefer a raspberry flavoured, chocolate swirl instead, but that being said, yes, we would be tempted to buy it again as an occasional treat.
Soooooooooo…… taking all things into consideration, we think 8 out of 10 sheets to the wind would be an appropriate score for Milky Bar Raspberry on our World Famous Richter Scale of Noms.
But now, we’ve heard that there is a Milky Bar Kit Kat to be had …….
…… which means we have a new quest and as and when we are able to get our little mits on one, two or three, you, as always, will be the first to know. What are we like?
I can only thank you for the review-if it had been raspberry swirls in the Milky bar I’d have been jealous! I’m looking forward to the kitkat review.

As I have said before, I've never been a fan of white chocolate, but I loved the Milky Bar adverts, when I was a kid.
ReplyDeleteOh Milky bar - now you're talking chocolate - (unless it's Lindor) they are both in equal place in my chocolate ratings - but milky bar KitKat?? That is one to look out for and try. Now Tesco are selling a 'White Chocolate' KitKat - is that the same thing I wonder? Might have to give those the taste test or ten - just for experimental purposes you understand. JantheFan x
