Advantages: Taste great

Disadvantages: Cost

I really don't know why I wanted a bag of these. It was one of those situations where your heart is telling you that they look great but my head is telling me that I could make them myself for half the price. Anyway my heart won over in the end and a bag came home with me along with the raisins and peanuts in this range.

The clusters consist of cornflakes coated in Cadburys chocolate but with a few raisins thrown in for good measure. Now you see what I mean when I say I could make these very easily. They come in smaller bags which after feeling one, barely contain anything and 200g family sized bags. I got them on offer at 2 for £2.50 but apparently another dooyooer informed me that Asda have them for just a pound a bag.

The packaging is very eye catching on this product and I'm convinced this is the reason why I picked up a bag. It's very red and smooth to the touch with pictures of the clusters floating around.

The clusters were irregular in size. Some were bigger than others and they tasted pretty much how you would expect a chocolate cornflake covered in Cadbury's chocolate to taste. However the raisins gave it that extra edge and really spiced them.

I really love Cadburys it's so creamy and milky and I love cornflakes so this was the perfect combination for me (apart from the peanuts which I reviewed earlier). I loved the way the cornflakes got stuck in my teeth and every now and again I got a nice plump raisin which exploded it's juices into the mix.

Over all these were exactly how I expected them to be and I probably would consider making my own next time because I'd get the benefit of entertaining Noah because he could help. I do think that they are over priced and certainly wouldn't pay £1.79 for just one bag.

Summary: not great but not bad either.
