Advantages: A sweet filler

Disadvantages: Lots of sugar

A Galaxy Cake Bar consists of a chocolate sponge cake topped with chocolate cream and covered in smooth and creamy milk chocolate. I guess they could be considered a snack but only as an unhealthy choice. The bar is exceptionally modest in terms of sweetness and will not overpower the taste buds. The cake compartment is reasonably light but not over delicate and crumbles at the lower end of the scale. The melt factor on the other hand is impressive. The creamy layer does persist longer than the cake and chocolate cover. One bar is enough to diminish the hunger pangs for an hour or so.

Eating one in public is generally not embarrassing but neither does one feel totally socially secure. I only eat these alone and in secret on the back of a half empty bus. As a portable snack they will generally fit the bill but I do find that a single bar takes up far too much room in my trendy little handbag.

There are no nutritional benefits unless you've been lost in a desert for five days without food.

A pack of 5 will set you back around £1.20.

Summary: An alternative Galaxy idea.
