New: Special K Biscuit Moments, Double Choc Review!

So Kellogg's have added two new flavours to their biscuit moments range. The "Double Choc" which we have here and the very fancy sounding "Black Forest Gateau." Despite the sneakily similar packaging I have avoided picking up that version. Aint no fruit getting near my chocolate. The only exception I will make when it comes to fruit in dessert is Banoffee pie. Other than that the rule is- if it's one of your five a day then it's not pudding.

I kind of feel like these biscuits are like diet Pop Tarts. I've only had the chocolate version , which I'm pretty sure is the same thing with a plain pastry. They were okay , but I was hoping the extra chocolate would make them better.

If something looks like it could be microwaved then I will microwave it. That's another rule. Well, it's not really but it usually makes thing better. So you can probably guess that I did in fact microwave one biscuit and reserved the other for cold testing. After 15 seconds, the drizzle had melted slightly and the smell of brownie filled the air. Both promising things.

I tried the microwaved one first. Unfortunately the taste was pretty bland. Nice, but not great. The cold one was actually better I think, it was richer and had a better crunch. Maybe I nuked all the flavour out of the other one, but hey it was for science. As usual , I dipped it in a cup of tea and it made it slightly nicer but not by a great amount.

Quite underwhelming really. However I do think they're a good chocolate hit and I have the sweetest tooth ever so that's something.

Overall

Texture:3/5
Taste:2/5
Dunk Difference: 3/5

Last Comments: Don't microwave toast it's super grody. Or do because you're an independent woman but also don't because it just ruins it and then you'll have to start again.

Kelkin Hazelnut and chocolate rice cake bar review

 You know what I love? Those dark chocolate covered round rice cake things. The combination of dark chocolate and popcorn-ish taste is just so good , which I think is pretty weird. This leads me to my discovery of this new rice bar. Im counting this as a cereal bar by the way , in case your wondering why it's on a breakfast blog- which you probably weren't. I thought it looked super nice,although quite different from my usual rice snack choice. As you can see from the wrapper, the chocolate is in between two rice cakes and is more of a paste than a hard chocolate top.

 Opening the wrapper the bar looked a little dry but the sweet smell of chocolate hazelnut held my hopes high.

As for taste it was actually really good. It doesn't look it but the paste is quite thick and contrasts well against the crunchy rice cake. If you've ever had those chocolate hazelnut "first class" biscuits from Bahlsen's Leibniz, the filling tasted exactly the same. And if you have ever had those chocolate hazelnut "first class" biscuits from Bahlsen's Leibniz, you'll know it's delicious. I usually dip my cereal bar in a cup of tea because I like to explore my options so I broke a bit off for dunking purposes. It didn't make much difference in terms of taste , just made the bar a bit mushier. I mean its rice cake so I probably should have guessed that would happen. Anyway, this is a very nice bar and makes for quite a healthy snack. I forgot to mention it's gluten free as well ! How grand.

Texture: 4/5
Taste: 4/5

Dunk difference: 1/5

Belvita Soft Bakes Choc Chips review!

When I hear the phrase "soft baked" I think of a warm, gooey cookie straight from the oven.I tried to get this image out of my head, as I knew they were unfair expectations to set for a breakfast biscuit!

Although I am quite fond of a Belvita, particularly the honey and nut flavour , so I was interested to see how these would taste, as they also have chocolate chips.

If I can help it, 80% of the things I eat would contain chocolate chips

Below is the shiny wrapper you get it in.Yes, you only get one! It made me realize how big the "V" is in the logo. It looks like a big tick , which is a sentence that needs to be enunciated well when being said out loud.

It defiantly looked soft baked, which is good because I don't enjoy being lied to by biscuits.Breaking a bit off further confirmed this and I took a bite. The first thing that hits you is a very oaty flavour, just like the normal oat flavoured Belvita's;then you get a chocolate chip, which is rich and dark.Just like my men.
The texture is an odd one. It is nice and soft , but has weird crispy bits inside , kinda like the ones found in a Cadbury's boost bar.

Honestly, I didn't love them and I was a little disappointed they didn't taste like a cookie , but that's probably my problem more than Belvita's. It's also worth mentioning I'm not a big fan of oat biscuits, so if you do enjoy a bit of crunchy porridge, then they might be worth a try!

Overall

Texture-2/5
Taste-2/5

Rice Krispie's Treats cereal review!

Rice Krispie's Treats are the tried and tested combination of marshmallows and Rice Krispies , and most likely a bunch of chemicals which I should probably care more about consuming. The finished product though is delicious, and a baking staple in most households.
So when I found out about Rice Krispie's Treats Cereal, I was amazed. What genius came up with this idea ?

It had been a while since I made this discovery and struggled to find anywhere that sold it in the UK. I was starting to give up and dabbled with the idea of making my own Rice Krispie's Treats and then just bashing them into small pieces and adding milk. However I knew in my heart that it would not be the same. It would also have been a sign that I had way too much time on my hands.

Then I saw it. Amongst the many other boxes of cereal at the cafe , its purple box stood out and called to me. I imagined this is what it's like to start a relationship online and meet for the first time in real life. Only with this there were no disappointments. Think Catfish but with food instead of people and happy endings instead of anger.

I just want to apologise for the poor photo, the lighting was dark so I had to make some lighting adjustments. #nonofilter. Because there is a filter.

Well it tastes exactly how you would expect. Rice Krispie , marshmallowy , crunchy goodness. It was literally like eating broken Rice Krispies Treats, and I felt less ashamed by my previously mentioned idea. I will be honest and say I wasn't blown away, but still enjoyed it very much. If this was easily available to me I could defiantly see myself craving it and making trips to by a box and 10:00pm on a Tuesday night.The texture was also good and stayed surprisingly crunchy for a long time.

I finished the bowl very satisfied , with the milk taking on the sweet, marshmallow flavour perfectly. I envy you America and the wide selection available to you. The only cereal I can think that might be similar in the UK is Ricicles. Basically frosted Rice Krisipie's. If anyone's tried them, please let me know what you think in the comments. If you haven't tried them , then you can pretend and write something anyway, I won't mind.

Overall

Texture- 3.5/5
Taste-4/5
Sog factor-3.5/5
Cereal milk- 3.5/5

Last Comments- I would like to mention no snaps,crackles or pops were to be heard when eating this cereal. Only a crunch. Crunch is the fourth one , he's older and cooler than the others.

Weeto's Cereal bar review

 Do cereal bars count as cereal? Of course they do , and are not forgotten on this journey of cereal discovery ! I didn't know these still existed and when I saw them in Poundland I was over the moon as Weeto's are one of my favourite cereals! An "on- the- go" option would be the perfect choice when I'm still peckish after an actual bowl of Weeto's. Just Kidding but I really do love them that much!

 Well the picture on the box looked appetizing , and I felt transported back to my child self as I remember the days when this was a common treat. Opening the bar it had that classic cereal bar smell if you know what I mean?

What I was hoping for was a bowl of Weeto's compacted into bar form with an extra chocolate hit from the base. Unfortunately this is not what I got. There is only a slight similarity between this and the actual taste of the cereal and the whole thing is just overpowered by a sweet taste. There is no real distinct flavour . The texture however was nice , crunchy and chewy as expected. Overall a disappointment , with the only saving grace being the chocolate base.

I have either been failed by my memories or by one of my favorite's. It's gunna take a while to recover from this one guys.

Overall

Texture: 3.5/5
Taste: 1.5/5
Sog Factor- N/A haha seems too official for what this is.
