These have been out for a couple of years now and I have only just recently tried them. After Eight's are 1 of my favourite Chocolates so I wonder why it has taken me so long to get these. I think it is because It is all about the normal After Eight's. and these are just so different looking. Not sure of the weight of this pack, but it isn't that much. They cost quite a bit considering how much of the Chocolates you actually get. I think the wife paid £2 for these, which is roughly the normal price of them. Although she likes to get things on offer, she also likes new things that she hasn't tried before. These are in a tube shaped tub and you just ...  Read the complete review

After Eight Thin Mints (After Eights) are a confectionery product described as "mint enrobed in dark chocolate". They were created in 1962 by Rowntree & Company Limited. Since the 1988 acquisition of the United Kingdom-based company, the mints have been produced by Nestlé. According to various articles I have read, "Rich in British heritage, After Eight is known as England's finest mint." They are advertised as an after-dinner mint, hence the product's name but I like to think that it is "after eight" somewhere in the world so it's really acceptable to eat them at any time of the day!! The new After Eight straws ...  Read the complete review

For a great many years now, After Eight Mints have been a firm favourite of mine. Recently a friend of mine gave me a gift of After Eight Straws. Apparantly these have been on the market and available for a few years now, but I have to admit that this was the first time I had seen them. The packaging is attractive and I was looking forward to enjoying a few of these while watching TV. The straws are made by Nestle and they come in a silver coloured tube and have pictures of the straws all the way round the box. There is a green band round the box with the name After Eight written on it. I found the tube very easy to open. It ...  Read the complete review

I am very familiar with After Eight mints as I grew up eating them after many a Sunday lunch. However, I was less familiar with these Nestle After Eight 'Straws' which I recently saw in my local supermarket and decided to try. I should point out that if you are looking out for these that the packaging design has now changed from the featured picture in this Dooyoo review. The tube is now dark green and looks a lot like the packaging of the original after dinner mint. Anyway these After Eight 'Straws' are basically comprised of a mint paste centre with a dark chocolate coating in the shape of a long stick or straw. The straws come in a 15 centimetre long tube ...  Read the complete review

Your average After Eights (produced by Nestle) are known as the thin dark chocolate squares with a lovely cream mint fondant in the middle. They are individually wrapped in little black "envelopes". Now it came as a surprise to me this Christmas when i received this wonderful tube of After Eight Sticks. I didn't really know what to make of them but within seconds i was of course, opening the tube. My first impression was that the packaging made them look quite expensive as it is a very strong and sturdy tube with a very simple posh looking and effective design mainly consisting of being silver in colour. The sticks of dark chocolate were ...  Read the complete review
