Advantages: Taste, price and low in fat

Disadvantages: Not enough in a box, not that easy to find

Advert
Who has seen the advert for this new chocolate snack? They use a Chinese couple I believe it was and its quite funny, its meant to show the extremes you would do to get a box of Mikado! I'm not a person who only buys something on how good the advert is for the product it's the product that sells its self. Anyway, I love my chocolate and I wanted to try this new product.

The hunt
I looked in my local supermarket, asda and couldn't find them anywhere, then looked in Sainsbury and they were being advertised as you walked in the store and even told you what isle to find them down, the biscuit isle. They were on special offer and at that point I could only find a pack of 3 which cost 99p! I counted 17 sticks in the first box.

The product
This biscuit product is an ultra thin biscuit which has a slight crunch which are all covered with smooth milk chocolate, one end of each stick is left uncovered so you don't get chocolate all over your fingers and get them sticky - what a simple yet genius idea!

Taste
Very moreish, they were right about being a snack to nibble on. Smooth chocolate, crunch to the biscuit, biscuit comes first ad then the taste of the chocolate comes after. You ill find you cant take one bite at a time, you will nibble the whole stick and before you know it the while box has gone!

Packaging
Nice size box with all the information you need with their inspiration on the back. The top section of the box is perforated so you can push and open to reveal a foil packet housing the sticks.

Nutrition
Each stick is 11 calories with 0.3g of saturated fat

The only negative thing I have to say is that there is not enough in a box!

Summary: A great on the go snack or just for sitting at home
