My partner is a huge fan of cream cakes and profiteroles are his most favourite. Walking down the freezer aisle in Sainsbury's I came across these, they aren't an item I would normally purchase but priced at only £2 I decided to give them a go. They took around 4 hours to defrost and they were ready to eat. They serve up to 4 people but i know my other half could have eaten the whole packet. I opened the packaging to see there were approximately 20 profiteroles, they are each around and inch and a half in width. The soft textured pastry of the profiteroles is nice and soft and when broken you will find a lovely thick tasty cream inside. They are ...  Read the complete review

It's Wednesday, and, in need of a mid- week pick me up I popped into Sainsbury's on the look out for something sweet and naughty. On seeing these Profiteroles I was instantly drawn to them, and the picture on the packaging promised everything I wanted so I put a pack in my basket, paid, and made my way home, I couldn't resist these for long, so we ate them just, and they were very yummy indeed! Price: At £2 for the box these seem pretty expensive, but they are meant to serve 4, which is a plenty big enough portion unless you're really needing a sweet treat. I couldn't see any other profiteroles at Sainsbury's when I got these so I didn't have chance to compare ...  Read the complete review

The Sunday roast is more often than not followed with a light dessert, if any of the family are coming then I try to push the boat out and buy something extra good. Yesterday afternoon we went to have a look in Comet electrical, the washing machine is on the blink again. On the small retail park they have a Marks and Spencer's food outlet, I suggested we go in and take a look around, but I'm sad to say that is all it was...a look around. Their high quality products were all beautifully displayed in the chiller cabinet, a superior selection that needed a superior wallet. Hence the only thing we came out of the store with was a Marks and Spencer's Insurance ...  Read the complete review

I really like Profiteroles, but I wasn't so keen on these ones. Surely they are all the same product? Not so. These are sold in Sainbury's and cost £2 a box. I got these on buy one get one free a few weeks ago. These are frozen and have 20 Profiteroles in the box. I wouldn't say that I thought £2 was expensive for this product, but I usually buy Asda's ones and they cost £1 for 20 and they are also frozen. Anyway they were worth it a bit more since they were on offer. There is a seperate sachet of Chocolate sauce and to look at the sauce it looked pretty thick. It was also really dark brown, so looks a bit rich chocolate. It's not long to ...  Read the complete review
