Milka Choco Minis

Walking through the biscuit aisle of Asda the other day, my eyes were drawn to these new unusual looking Milka biscuits on the shelf!
Normally, Milka branded products are displayed in the chocolate aisle, but due to these being biscuit based they were placed in the biscuit aisle.....and for £2 I certainly wasn't going home without trying these beauties!

'Biscuits filled with milk cream and a layer of Alpine Milk Chocolate'

This pack of Milka chocolate biscuits contains 5 individual mini packs perfect for school lunch boxes, or a cheeky treat at work! (you can only see 4 packs in the picture below since I have already scoffed the fifth pack!).

Described simply as; 'Biscuits filled with milk cream and a layer of Alpine Milk chocolate'. These treat size biscuits certainly look delicious!
And I must say, I don't believe they're terribly unhealthy either! Each small pack contains 6 mini biscuits, and each biscuit contains 32 calories. That's only 192 calories per pack....not too bad if I do say so myself!....It certainly helps make me feel less guilty having a pack of these!
 Furthermore, I think splitting these mini biscuits up into six individual packs, definitely helps control how many biscuits you eat!

I have to say I love the design and shape of these biscuits! I think the star design looks amazing, and  I bet children would love having a little pack of these as a treat or in they're lunch boxes at school....to be honest even as an adult I'm still drawn to these adorable biscuits!
Taste wise, the shortbread biscuit tastes perfect! Nice and crumbly and the perfect base for the layer of Alpine chocolate...I have to admit I was greatly disappointed at the supposed 'milk cream' that was meant to be the filling in between the biscuit and Alpine chocolate layer. In actual fact, there was only a tiny line of white cream on every biscuit in my pack, so it wasn't just a one off.....

Overall, I am a huge fan of these Milka choco minis! I love Milka chocolate and the combination of the chocolate with a biscuit is delicious! I would however recommend that Milka actually add in some more of the 'milk cream' so that we can actually get a proper taste of it! Nevertheless, this is a lovely product and definitely does the job as a perfect snack!

Would I buy this product again? Yes

Milka Happy Cows!

When I was out and about yesterday I came across this 'Happy Cows' version of the Milka bar for only 50p in Morrisons! You can't go wrong for that price, so inevitably I popped one...or two in my trolley!

The bar is 100g and contains 530 calories of sweet milky goodness. The only description about this chocolate is on the label where it says 'Alpine milk and white chocolate'....which is pretty obvious from looking at the packet.

Upon opening the bar, I was greeted with the lovely smell of milk chocolate and then the wonderful view of the chocolate bar! Going with the 'Happy Cow's theme, the bar is the usual Milka shape with the name written on each chunk, but with random white chocolate splashes spread out across the bar...like a cow!

The bar is aesthetically amazing and looks incredibly appetising.....however my hopes for this bar were a little short lived. When turning the bar over, the whole underside was just plain milk chocolate. The only part of the bar that was white chocolate were the little splashes on the top, and these splashes were simply at the top of the bar rather than mixed with the milk chocolate throughout. This made the bar 95% milk chocolate and 5% white chocolate which slightly ruined the flavour for me.

Now onto the actual taste. Despite the fact that the white chocolate could barely be tasted throughout the bar, the chocolate did taste extremely delicious, with it being the perfect blend between fluffy and creamy, and leaving that little after-taste in your mouth that makes you keep reaching for more.

In conclusion, I was slightly disappointed with the fact the white chocolate wasn't integrated throughout the whole bar, but overall I really enjoyed this chocolate and for 50p wouldn't even hesitate in popping a few more bars in my trolley again. This is the perfect chocolate bar for those who don't like their chocolate too 'sickly' and 'heavy' but still want that creamy, moreish taste!

Would I buy this again? YES.
