Jammie Dodgers Gooey Apple Review

Hey everyone! 

Welcome to a brand new blog post. I saw some new Jammie Dodgers, so I thought that I would get some, try them and tell you what I thought about them, so that's what I am doing today. 

Gooey apple flavour filing sandwiched between two shortcake biscuits. - Tesco. 

I have always loved Jammie Dodgers. They were definitely a biscuit that was the centre of my childhood, along with BN's, Blue Ribands, and, Golds. I love the texture of the biscuits. The slightly crisp yet crumbly shortcake biscuit goes well against the smooth filling which slowly melts into a pool of deliciousness on your tongue. I think due to their texture alone, they are one of those biscuit products where you can say that you're only going to have one, and then five minutes later, you've finished the whole packet without even realising what you have done due to the fact that they are sinfully delicious. 

I know what you're thinking... An Apple flavoured biscuit, what a weird product to release into the world! Whilst I hear your worries and questions, the mixture of Apple and buttery Biscuit is not only amazing in this product, but a flavour combination that us Brits, and, probably most people internationally are used to.  We all know this combination via the amazing Apple Pie. When I first bit into this product, my mouth was hit with a beautiful blast of buttery biscuit. Not too rich, but not too oily tasting either. (I've had some biscuits before that taste quite oily). After the blast of biscuit calms down, the amazing avalanche of Apple  hit my tastebuds. After about a minute or so, this Sharp flavour died down and mixed with the background note of sweet bakery products to create an interesting Apple Pie flavour. I adore Apple Pie.

Would I buy these again? Yes, I definitely would. I am sad that they are a limited edition. I believe that they are, even, a Halloween limited edition product so I am going to have go on the hunt and get some before they disappear from the shelves. I love these. They fit into the Autumn aesthetic of life quite well via being Apple Pie flavoured and actually deliver on flavour unlike some biscuit products that I've recently tried. I hope that this product comes back next year. If I was to give them a rating, I would give them a 9.5/10. 

Have you tried these? Let me know down below!

Munching To My Own Groovy Beat | Aldi Groovy Biscuits Review

Hey everyone!

Welcome to a brand new blog post! Whilst I was on my Aldi quarantine shop, I saw some interesting products that I wanted to try. So, I thought I'd tell you all about one of those products in today's blog post.

I remember when I was in my youth, that supermarkets used to sell M&M and Twix based biscuit snacks. These used to consist of, shortbread biscuit, chocolate, and either caramel underneath the chocolate for the Twix ones, or M&M's on top for the M&M ones. So, when I was in Aldi, I noticed a packet that showed a product that resembled the M&M ones and I knew that I had to have them.

'Crispy biscuits with a caramel and milk chocolate filling, decorated with milk chocolate filled candy shells.' - Aldi UK.

I love the textural difference in each and every one of these snacks. The mix of crumbly shortbread, mixed with the smooth caramel and chocolate and then the crunchy candy shells is exquisite. It's like a party in your mouth.

These snacks are very tasty and once you have had one, you end up wanting more. The taste of the buttery shortbread goes beautifully with the buttery caramel and sweet chocolate. I know that describing all of this makes the product seem very sickly and sweet but there is something about these snacks that aren't too sweet. I think that these would go perfectly with a hot drink and a good TV show. They are only 99p for a pack too which is a steal!

Have you tried these? Do you remember the old biscuits that I am on about? What are your favourite biscuits? Let me know down below!
