Advantages: nice and creamy

Disadvantages: none

I eat quite a lot of fruit, fresh and tinned and even frozen as they are nice and healthy but it can be quite boring just eating them sometimes and so I like to use a topping and this milk works perfectly for me.

It comes in a can and for only 59p for 410g it is very good value for money.

It has a paper wrapper over the can and it has the name clear on the front and it has been on the market for many years.

On opening the can, inside it is a thick creamy milk and it is a pale yellow colour and it pours beautifully over fruit.

It is manufactured by Nestle and it is a full cream evaporated milk, it can be used as an alternative to cream and it has half the fat content, which is very good.

It can be used with jellies or cakes or just with fruit and it has a nice smooth texture and the taste is very creamy and light.

It contains per 50g serving, 81 calories, 4.5g fat, 6.2g carbohydrate and 3.9g protein.

It is unsuitable for babies under 12 months old, so cannot be used as a main milk feed.

I find it is nice over cheesecakes or cakes to give that extra bit of kick and it is so yummy.

It has quite a sweet taste and when poured or spooned onto food it just trickles down it perfectly.

It is available in any supermarket and sometimes I have found it on shelves over the freezer sections.

It is lovely with treacle filling cakes, just poured over it to give that little bit more taste.

I think if you have not tried this alternative product to cream, you should give it a try and see if you like it too.

I give it a 5 star.

Thank you for reading my review.

Summary: good price and value for good tasting product
