Advantages: Delicious flapjack treat Disadvantages: Pricey and high in calories.
Review of GU Naughties Millionaire's Flapjack
The Product
What is it?
A black plastic, circular pot containing 16 pieces of chocolate coated caramel flapjack.
Packaging
A classy looking black plastic bucket type container with a photograph of three pieces of the flapjack. Nutritional values, allergy advice and ingredients are listed on the side of the container. The container is sealed with a peel away plastic strip around the lid and then the actual product is sealed for freshness with foil inner lid. My one criticism about the packaging is that I can see no mention of whether it is recyclable on the label, which, perhaps wrongly, leads me to believe that it is not!
Taste, Texture and Aroma
The flapjack is one of the nicest I have ever tasted, rich and sweet in flavour, oaty, with a lovely chewy texture ...
Advantages: gorgeous chocolate, warm and tasty, comes with ramekins, usually on offer. Disadvantages: expensive if not on offer, loads of calories, more-ish!
I had a day off work today and I had already decided to treat myself to a gorgeous bit of carrot cake which I seem to have an addiction too at the moment. But shock horror at the supermarket as I couldn't find any carrot cake at all! None in the whole place! (Is there a carrot strike on???) So on my way to the checkout these grabbed my eye and I quickly dropped them in my basket. Ok so I like carrot cake but chocolate has always been my number one!
** Gü **
Gü is a new name to the market which has created a whole new world of chocolate extremism. Created by a rather clever chap named James Averdieck, he was inspired by the local patisseries use of chocolate in Belgium and after a few experiments and a bit of market research, the first Gü chocolate products were launched in 2003. They now make everything from chocolate brownies ...
Advantages: very chocolaty and the best pudding i think i`ve ever had!! Disadvantages: can get a bit sickly if you get greedy and have more than you should!!
GU mini puds are my absolute favourite pudding.
They can be purhased in most supermarkets and although they seem a bit pricey at £1.89, although the price does vary in different shops, they are what i`d like to call little pots of heaven!!
The box is black and very eye catching and inside there is a tray of 3 50g black pots with a lid that peels back.
The box says 3 cheeky + saucy little pots au chocolat.
They are double chocolate truffle made with 53% cocoa chocolate.
Admitedly they can be a bit sickly especially if you are like me and get greedy and sit and eat all 3 in one go but they are definately one for those of us with a sweet tooth!
The taste is very chocolatey, I know that may sound silly but these really taste like no chocolate I`ve ever tried!
The ingredients are
