Options Wicked White Choc

WHAT HAVE WE HERE? Options Wicked white chocolate drink. The small oblong sachet varies in price from 20p to about 35p. I NEVER buy them at the latter price but do often pick them up when they are 5 for £1 or similar. The sachet is a subtle sky blue colour with a creamy white chocolate front. Tempting you to try are the word" I felt WICKED, It was a WHITE gold ring, CHOC full of diamonds" which presumably it to give the impression of luxury and wealth. The highlighted words are of course the name of the Options drink in question. WHEN TO USE: I found these extremely handy when I was working as I often went from ...  Read the complete review

I was strolling down the hot chocolate aisle in Tesco a few of weeks ago when I came across a 2 for £4.00 offer on Options hot chocolate. Each jar of Options costs £2.24 so that's a 48p saving, not quite the amazing bargain I first thought. I promptly picked up one of my favourite flavours, 'Mint Madness' (the person who first put mint and chocolate together is a god) and rather than picking another one of my favourites I decided to go for 'Wicked White'. I figured this would be something totally different as I have never tasted white hot chocolate before. I was also drawn in by the the low fat content, enticing packaging and the fact I love white ...  Read the complete review

Sometimes it's good to have a change. There's nothing that helps me to sleep at night if I'm having trouble nodding off than a cup of hot chocolate. I've been very loyal to cadburys over all these years but I thought to myself, let's take a walk on the wild side! Options have a variety of flavoured hot chocolate drinks, you may have seen the pretty annoying advert on the telly recently. All ranging from coconut, vanilla and toffee to banana, mint and hazelnut. Being in an adventurous mood I opted for the white chocolate and the belgian chocolate ones. Everybody can make this drink- one cup, (top tip, don't use a great big mug otherwise you'll ...  Read the complete review

Hey! What a great idea! Take hot chocolate to a different level and market a hot white chocolate drink. That's a fab idea! And with it being Options, which I am partial to every now and then, I thought that it couldn't possibly go wrong. And then comes the dreaded word: 'however'............. Options have a impressive range of tasty, sweet(ish) and relaxing hot chocolates, with flavours varying from regular to mint and Belgian choc, and the majority of them are lovely. This white chocolate flavoured one, however, wasn't too convincing. Making it, as always, is pretty easy in comparison with other hot chocolate brands: stirring as you add the hot water is often ...  Read the complete review

I like hot chocolate, and I like white chocolate. I thought that this drink might be a perfect combination of the two. I bought a single sachet from my local Tesco's, for 20p. They are usually 29p but they had an offer on of 5 for £1 so I thought why not?! The product comes in a light blue tall and thin sachet, with a little cut notch at the top for you to tear it open with. There's 45 calories per drink, which is good, but a worrying amount of E numbers! The directions say to empty the sachet into a mug, and add boiled water and stir. I find you get a better taste if you add a little milk with hot chocolate, so I added a dash of milk to the cup. Usually ...  Read the complete review
