Advantages: Tasty!

Disadvantages: Moreish

I bought these whilst in Thorntons a few weeks back. They were £1.79, which I must say I would not normally pay but it was my payday and I was feeling flush.

The packaging makes the product look quite tempting (well tempting enough to pay £1.79!) and was easy to open and did not spill crumbs everywhere. It is slightly different packaging to the picture provided - more expensive looking.

Once opened you find 12 little squares of the caramel shortcakes, which are about 1 inch square. They come in a gold foil tray and you just pick them out when you want them.

The chocolate is 3mm thick on the top (just enough, not too much or little) and the caramel is about the same thickness, as is the biscuit at the bottom.

I personally put these in the fridge when I bought them as it was a hot day and when I ate them the chocolate had a fim bite/crack to it but the caramel was still very soft and gooey and the biscuit was firm but crumbly.

Just pure heaven! The fact that it is a bite sized piece is great as it stops it being too big and becoming sickly, the balance of chocolate, caramel and biscuit is just enough, there is not too much of one ingredient that overpowers the others.

I bought three more packs (they were that good!) for a girlie night in and they were gone in 20 minutes with everyone commenting on how yummy they were.

Best part is that per serving (which I assume is 1 square) they are only 86cals. Bad part is that you can easy eat 860calories worth!

Summary: Only buy one pack. The more you get, the more you will eat.
