Asda Smartprice Chocolate Swiss Roll Reviews

I have been shopping at Asda for as long as I can recall. Asda is well known for their cheap prices and great bargains. For all the bargains that Asda have, I must say that this Swiss Roll deal is phenomenal. I have no idea why the overall rating is 3 stars. For 13p, as long as it tastes chocolately and is in the form of a roll, it is a fantastic ...  Read the complete review

When I saw this product on dooyoo food section I knew that id have to give it a quick review, that is because I was a bit shocked to see that it only had three stars. Now, being a fairly cheap product perhaps people have rated it low on the quality but I still think the quality is above three stars, and the price being so cheap easily balances it ...  Read the complete review

At less than half the price of a higher brand chocolate swiss roll, this was a impulse buy to see how good it could really be for so little (when I first bought these they were 16p but the price does fluctuate). This isn't any smaller than a regular higher priced cake but it does have much plainer packaging - using the white/green ...  Read the complete review

When my mum did an online shop at Asda last week she brought loads of the Smart Price stuff to try because she's signed up for a challenge to replace some of our weekly shopping with the proper cheapo supermarket brands. There's 5 of us in the house and we've all got a bit of a sweet tooth and my mum worked out that loads of the shopping money ...  Read the complete review

I don't eat a lot of cakes myself, but I'm always looking for something different to give the kids for a snack, and something that doesn't cost the earth either. And at 13p you can definitely say that the Smart Price Chocolate Swiss Roll fits the second criteria perfectly, but how does it taste? Nutritional Information Typical ...  Read the complete review

I'm not big on cakey kind of treats but my daughter and son both like a nice slice of cake after dinner. I was doing the weekly shop in ASDA and thought I could pick some cake up for them. I then spotted this and for the low price of just 13p I thought that they could try it, and it wouldn't really marrer if they didn't like it. It is a ...  Read the complete review

When visiting my Mothers recently for Sunday lunch it was my turn to take along some dessert and so I popped in to Asda in Harlow town and purchased a couple of these little bargains! The packaging is very simple it is clear allowing you to see the swiss roll within and it has the basic green and white, easily recognisable, Smart Price ...  Read the complete review

A cheap and tasty chocolatey treat! With no artificial colours or hydrogenated, they're not as bad for you as you might think! The soft chocolatey sponge melts in your mouth to reveal a yummy vanilla creamed flavoured filling. Just because the price is so small, doesn't mean that the quality of the product is in any way bad. They ...  Read the complete review

'If it seems too good to be true, it usually is' - how many times have you heard that? Yet, despite the old adage, I was still drawn in by this chocolate swiss roll. In the current credit crunch climate, a product that combines chocolate, cream and sugar for just 15p has to be good, doesn't it? The answer, of course, is no! Texture ...  Read the complete review

Asda do a very good smart price range in which many of the products are of really good quality as well as being really cheaply priced. The Smart price chocolate Swiss roll however does not come up to the standards of many of the other items in the range. I had tried the jam Swiss roll and really enjoyed it with custard so I ...  Read the complete review

Asda smart price chocolate swiss rolls are always an item I have in my monthly shopping trolley as they are so cheep and tasty and my daughter loves them. I normally buy quite a few and freeze them so they last over the month and they taste just as good when de frosted. The packaging the chocolate swiss rolls come in is very basic as ...  Read the complete review

This is yet another product I bought after reading a review of it on Dooyoo. I was doing an online shop anyway and thought for the price of just 13p it wouldn't be the end of the world if I didn't like it. I do generally love cakes, and whilst I sometimes make my own, I don't always have the time or inclination, so I do usually go for shop bought ...  Read the complete review

The Asda Smartprice Swiss roll does offer good value for 13p, although hubby will gladly eat a whole Asda Swiss roll in one go. Maybe not the first cake I would choose, i`m rather partial to the Cadbury`s chocolate covered Swiss roll myself. You would think that the Swiss Roll originated from Switzerland, Apparently not, it ...  Read the complete review

My ideal pudding is cake and cream or cake and ice cream. Usually if I have a craving I will buy a pack of big chocolate muffins and some double cream. I'm ashamed to say I end up eating the lot then feeling bad because of the amount of calories I've consumed. Anyway not the other day I had a craving and I was odering our weekly Asda shop online. ...  Read the complete review

This is a cheap product, it costs just 15 pence for a roll. It has less calories than the more expensive swiss rolls, with only 276 calories per 100 grams. When I had opened the plastic wrapping, the smell of chocolate didnt jump out on me, but it was a dark brown colour It has a very sweet taste to it, but I think this is ...  Read the complete review

I love deserts and chocolate and saw this at the local ASDA store. Bringing the Chocolate Swiss roll home and unpacking the shopping i was tempted by the thought of a piece of Swiss roll with a cup of tea. The packaging was well presented and was sealed well at both ends around the chocolate Swiss roll. Cutting ...  Read the complete review

I like to provide a pudding with each meal, and while most of them are fruit based, once a week we like to be decidedly wicked and have something that is a little more naughty. I admit that I try to stick to a strict monetary budget, so I look to save when I can. This is one of the products we have tried over time during my various economy drives, ...  Read the complete review

I'd not had Swiss Roll in years, but last week when my mam bought a roll from the Asda Smart Price range, she offered me a slice and I decided to give it a try - what harm could it do? The Swiss roll comes in a clear wrapper so you can see what it looks like. The outer layer of chocolate sponge is quite a deep shade of chocolate brown. ...  Read the complete review

i used to buy these for my two sons when they were a little bit younger because they absolutely love it after their tea with custard on the top. after having tried it myself i no longer buy them anymore and i will tell you the reasons why later. the swiss roll comes in a see through packet with green and white labelling on it. it feels quite ...  Read the complete review

I do not have a sweet tooth but here I was in the mood for a sweet treat and it was the day before our big shop, my wife was out with the grandkids and there was nothing that I would usually have as a sweet snack so after a good rake around I came across an Asda smart price chocolate Swiss roll. My wife buys these for the grandkids who ...  Read the complete review
