What do I think?
*************
I actually prefer this so much more than the original Maltesers, I wonder if they could actually do a normal chocolate bar of this. This tastes so much nicer and there is a lot more chocolate with this. The honeycombe centre is much firmer and creamier than the original so it tastes almost like praline or Belgium chocolate, and all of this creamy velvety centre is covered in thick, and again creamier than the original, milk chocolate.

It looks like a very small bunny shaped bar, but when you open it up, the vast thickness of it makes up for its size, and there is certainly an ample portion here. It costs only around 55p which is a bit dear, but if it was made into a normal shaped chocolate bar I would still pay the same price for it, so please make one and I'll buy it!

I've been looking thrugh the ingredients to see what has made it taste so different and much nicer, and it seems to be the 'malt' filling, and it takes up 34% of the bar - their secret ingredient! I think if they added this or whatever extra stuff they put in here to the original Maltesers, they would taste as good as this too, and again I would definitely buy them more frequently.

The packaging is very cute too, with little pretty floers and butterflies, it almost looks like a Valentine's chocolate gift, although I wouldn't mind receiving this at that time of year...it's a shame, these are so good and fantastic that they really should think about producing and selling them all year round...



Thanks for reading. xx
