Cuetara Choco Flakes Cereal review!

 This has to be one of the most interesting cereals I've ever seen. Described as "puffed rice and chocolate chips wrapped in cracker biscuit";the unique combination was something I knew I had to try. Especially because they reminded me of little tiny pop tarts in cereal form.

 Opening the bag up, the pieces were bigger, heavier and sturdier than I imagined. I mean they look good, right? Kinda like one of those stone faces from Super Mario but also very appetising. There's a thought I never thought I'd have. The recommended serving is 9 pieces, which is shown above.

Trying a piece dry , the flavour was nice, but what really made it was the combination of textures. From light and airy puffed rice, to smooth chocolate chips, to crunchy biscuit. When you add milk however , the crunchy biscuit part doesn't last very long. Like at all. I'm talking about 10 seconds max before the biscuit exterior dissolves and is never to be seen again. This isn't necessarily a bad thing though! The outcome is still a lovely, unique experience and you're left with a biscuit flavoured milk. If you're anything like me, biscuit flavoured milk = cereal goals. I got my box on the cereal killer cafe's online shop, but they also had it available in-store when I last went. So give it a try - it's a weird one.

From what I gathered , this cereal mascot thing was giving a doll a limited amount of time before he was going to sexually assault her.  But I'm hoping I've got that wrong.

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.

French Toast Crunch cereal review

 The french? Pretty cool. Toast? Love the stuff. Crunch? It's a must. French Toast Crunch is an american favourite and seems to be a childhood staple. I have never been a child in America so for me it wasn't, yet my expectations were still high. You know there's a problem when you've had the cereal version of something before the actual thing. Yes, thats right. I've never had french toast. But who cares when you've got this ! I will confess though that I have tried this before in my favourite of places- The Cereal Killer Cafe! That was ages ago though and I've forgotten. So, in a recent trip to the US I picked up a box, along with many other cereal goods.

 If there was a prize for cutest cereal this would win hands down, wouldn't it? Oh my gosh is this cute , I want to look at it all day. Opening the box I was met with the heavenly scent of maple and cinnamon. It was a smell that reminded me of a new love that I had discovered on my trip- pancakes! It smelt like it was going to taste of pancakes and this had me excited. I try a couple of pieces dry , ignoring the bit of guilt I felt for eating something so darn adorable. The flavour was strong and I knew it could only get better with milk, so in it went.

 It's a rare occasion when something is better than you remember but this was. The first time I had it I thought it was good but this time- OH MY GOSH is it good! It tasted just how it smelt, with the combination of syrup and cinnamon making the perfect pair. As mentioned, I've never had french toast but I'm sure its resemblance would be admirable. As for texture , the crunch was perfect and held strong throughout. As you get further down it gets a slightly slimy outside, but in a super nice way that you find with other cereals.

So I ate it pretty quickly and was left with what I would like to trademark "Maple Milk". This wasn't the sort of cereal I thought would leave good cereal milk but DAMN. The flavour transported right into it. It was as if the cereal flavour was all like "Beam me up , Scotty." and the milk was like "Sure thing man."

I can see why this cereal was so popular and I'm very happy the good people's demands have been met with its return. Now if they could just go ahead and make pancake crunch then that would be cool.

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.

Cap'n Crunch's Sprinkled Donut Crunch cereal review!

 I'm all for food that looks like other food. Whether it's French Toast Crunch, dinosaur chicken nuggets or a cake that looks like a burger- I love it! Right now you'll probably either be nodding your head in agreement or wondering if I am in fact 8 years old.But lets put any differences aside and marvel at the fact that this cereal exists.This is the sort of thing we would never get in the UK and I knew I had to try it.

Opening the bag, I was punched in the face by the sweet smell of ...? I have no idea, my nose has never experienced this smell but it was very strong and smelt good.Maybe this is how doughnuts smell in America.Maybe I've never taken the time to smell a doughnut properly.Or maybe I should just stop over analysing it.

As you can see , it lives up to it's name.While the hoop shape is common for cereals, the sprinkles were a great touch and I thought it was impressive that they used proper ones instead of a fake decoration.Above is the recommended 28g serving but a few extra doughnuts can't hurt.

I tried a single piece dry, eating it how one would eat a doughnut as I felt it only fair.I was actually very surprised at how much flavour one piece had and eagerly added the milk. I scooped the hoops, making sure I got some extra "sprinkly" ones and was met with a very sweet,vanilla flavour.I have to admit I found it a bit overwhelming.It had a very unique taste and I wasn't sure if I liked it or not.However as I contemplated this , I kept eating, proving it to be quite more-ish. One thing that is impressive is the crunch! I can see how the captain got his nickname, despite the controversy over his actual ranking.The cereal stayed crunchy throughout and the flavour actually got better after having a little soaking! I think this is because the sweetness got a bit diluted and the bowl became a bit more bearable, or bowl- arable shall we say.You are left with something similar to what I imagine original Cap'n Crunch taste's like , but I couldn't say for sure as I've never tried them.

The colour of the sprinkles make their way into the milk, resulting in a greenish, blue colour that reminds me of those toffee ice creams you could get from the ice cream van after school. Unfortunately that's not how it tasted , but I was too mesmerised by the colours to care.

In all honesty, it's probably going to take me a while to get through the box, but I enjoyed the novelty of eating more than 12 doughnuts at once without feeling a mixture of triumph,proudness and regret.
If you have any food you like that looks like other food, please let me know in the comments!

New Weetabix Protein crunch chocolate cereal review!

Weetabix are a cereal brand that stay true to my heart. Not to be mistaken for a cereal band, such as Korn-flakes. Ok, I'm kidding , but I do love Weetabix in all of its forms- in particular "Crunchy Bran" and "Weeto's". Protein is becoming increasingly popular, and for adults that want to have chocolate for breakfast but also need the energy- this is perfect.

 Looking at the shape, I wasn't sure if I was about to eat cereal or crisps! I think you know which ones I'm talking about. Rhymes with "Sheet Munchies" which coincidently is another name for when people eat beds. They were also smaller than I imagined- which is good as they looked quite difficult to eat. For those wondering there is 20g of protein per 100g. Above is a 30g serving which gives you 6g. I don't know if that's good or not- my apologies.

They looked like they have the same sort of texture as Weeto's, So that's what I was thinking they would taste like.I went in with the milk.A few of the tubes together and there is a pleasant chocolate flavour. It's not amazing I have to say. To best explain it, I would say that it does taste like Weeto's-just not as good. The great thing is though is that there is no weird powder aftertaste that you can get with some protein products. Also when they say "crunch" they aren't kidding.I would even go as far to say they need a second to soak if you don't want to scratch your mouth. Maybe you do want to scratch your mouth and have been searching forever for a tiny cat that would be perfect for such needs.I don't know and I won't judge.

The further I got, the less of chocolate it started to taste and it started to get quite bland.I wondered if the chocolate had found its way into the milk. It hadn't.

Despite this , I did enjoy this cereal somewhat and I feel it is a great compromise for cereal lovers who need the extra boost in the morning.

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!

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.

Cereal Killer Cafe: Camden review!

 I'm back for round three ! This time at the Camden location , as I felt it my duty as an avid cereal cafe fan to try both locations. As suspected , it's amazing!

The cafe logo is proudly displayed on the front of the shop , behind a bunch of video tapes which is pretty cool and sticking with the retro theme.Just the same as Brick lane , in that when you enter you are met with a wall of cereals and a menu on the right.

I was visiting with a mission. I knew exactly what I wanted to order as I have been wanting to try them for ages. coco pops. No just kidding, I wouldn't commit such a crime.
I went for a bowl of French Toast Crunch and another of Rice Krispie Treats cereal. I will post a review for both of these soon, so look out for that!

When inside , you see this amazing wall made out of milk containers. It's crate!
Old TV's are placed inside it, making me not only enjoy the nostalgia of old cartoons, but appreciate the architecture and sturdiness of the sculpture standing beside me. Next to this are tables and a bar like setting with a long table and stools.

 Further on there's an even bigger seating area , with beds! I firmly believe this is because everyone knows cereal is better in the evening than in the morning. Or does it mean I could live there if I paid rent ? I'll ring them ...

Even more retro memorabilia covers the walls, which I could look at all day . Old things are fun to look at actually. Cereal boxes , cars , and even though it's gross there's something about mouldy fruit which is just disgustingly mesmerising.

Anyway, I'm very happy that the cafe is getting the attention it deserves and that the company is expanding. The more the merrier is what I say! I just hope that one day there's a location closer to me.

If you'd like to know what the Brick Lane location is like, there is a review here

Hershey's Cookies 'n' Creme cereal review!

 Hershey's chocolate isn't something I eat a lot of here in the UK. Is it because it's harder to find? Or because it tastes gross? Ok, i'm exaggerating. My point here is that I don't feel I'm experienced enough to compare this to the real bar. However I love cookies , and had high hopes this is what the cereal would taste like.

They smelled good, I was defiantly getting the creme scent coming through;That is not a sentence I hope to use in any other situation. They are smaller than I was expecting , the box had mislead me and my trust was beginning to fade. Below is the recommended serving of 27g , which is 110 calories. Not including the extra cereal added when you decide to ignore this fact.
Shout out to my first commenter who asked me to do this :)

That sounded sarcastic, it wasn't meant to be I promise. Anyway , I tried the pieces dry- separately of course! To my surprise , the "white chocolate" balls were more flavourful and had a nice vanilla hint. Whereas the brown ones - which I'm guessing were the cookies - were quite mild. Eager to see how the flavours would combine, I added the milk.

As suspected the white chocolate is the more prominent flavour, and the whole thing is a little underwhelming. It's a nice bowl of cereal tough. Good white chocolate flavour with a hint of broken promises. Only because I was hoping there would be a dark chocolate flavour , like the biscuit pieces found in the bar, but there was none ( so much for not comparing) . Texture however was very good , staying crunchy throughout. The remaining milk is pretty much the same, just a bit sweeter.

I guess the cereal I'm really looking for is " Oreo-o's" , an Oreo flavoured cereal which are only to be found in South Korea. One of the many cereals on my long list of ones I'd love to try. Maybe one day. *looks dramatically out of the window*

Jif Peanut butter cereal review!

 When I saw this cereal I knew it needed to be good. After all it has strong competition. My favourite being Peanut butter toast crunch. In peanut butter cereal I look for a strong flavour,good crunch and a nice dust. Dust is a must.

 The peanut butter smell is strong with this one. I've never had Jif before as it's not as popular in the UK but if it tastes how this smells, I must try it. I was quite skeptical of this cereal as its concept reminded me of Cap 'n' crunch PB cereal, of which I'm not a fan.

I got a good amount on my spoon with some milk and was pleasantly surprised. The flavour is a decent replica of actual peanut butter and the crunch is great. My first bowl down and I thought I had it sussed. Better than Cap 'n' Crunch but nowhere near as good as PB Toast Crunch. 

Then something happened. Every bowl after got better and better. The flavour got stronger and I loved it more every time I had it. Maybe its because it got dustier after the top layer but I felt a victim of cereal witchcraft. Its just as good as my current favourite and I polished off the box pretty quickly.

As for sogginess , this cereal shines when its dry but is still good after a bit of a soak. It's only weakness is the milk, leaving very little flavour and only a reminder that it's all gone.Maybe I should add cereal milk to the overall list ? 

Anyway this cereal is amazing. I find some cereals I fall in love with the first couple of bowls and then go off them. However I loved these through and through.Just goes to show first impressions don't always count :)

Chocolate Toast Crunch cereal review!

I have waited a long time for this. Ever since trying-and falling in love with-Peanut Butter Toast crunch , I knew I had to try the chocolate version. So when I managed to get my hands on this I was very excited.

 Eagerly opening the box and having a sniff, I was met with a strong smell of cocoa , this was very promising. I mean just look at that dusting! On this journey of cereal self discovery , I have come to realise that I am very fond of a dusty cereal. I tried a single piece dry,teasing myself. I knew the flavour wouldn't be as strong on it's own. The solitary square was underwhelming, little chocolate flavour and almost had a savoury aftertaste. I had not given up hope tough,as with the PB Toast Crunch- this was only one square.

I poured in the milk and scooped up a big spoonful of this long awaited cereal. HOLY MOLY THIS IS GOOD. The chocolate flavour was so rich and powerful , eating it I felt like a sophisticated adult ;all I needed was a glass of red wine and a velvet dressing gown and I was set. The hint of cinnamon , comes on queue , right at the end and takes this to the next level! This dark chocolate flavour combo paired with the signature texture and crunch makes for the perfect chocolate cereal. It almost felt like I was eating chocolate biscuits, just lighter and better.

Not to mention this whopper! Do not fear for the roof of my mouth , I have had many years of training to deal with this situation.

You're probably wondering about the milk. If you're in the unofficial cereal fan club , you know the milk is important. Well, this does not disappoint. The milk welcomes the sugary dusting like it's long lost family - and the reunion is delicious.I also feel like this version holds up better in milk, but maybe that's because I ate it so fast , it didn't have a chance to get soggy.

The only variety I haven't tried is Frosted Toast Crunch. Please let me know in the comments if you've tried it and think it's worth a go :)

Golden syrup flavour snaps Review!

 Asda have been on point with their cereals at the moment. I was stuck for choice with the various new flavours on offer. Along with this they had strawberry snaps, milkshake flavoured shreddie like things and a new Weetabix cereal. In the end I chose this though- Golden syrup snaps. I think it's because Rice Krispie's are one of my ultimate cereals. Simple but delicious.

The only other golden syrup flavour cereal I've had is Weetabix and I didn't really like it. With this in mind while opening the bag and getting a whiff of it , I realised that in actual fact - I don't like golden syrup.

With the excitement of choice , I seem to have made a bad decision.I pressed on however , for my readers that I one day hope to have. Sarcasm aside , I tried some dry. Oh dear. I didn't like this one bit , just a small amount was enough to put me off and give me a bit of a headache from the sweetness. I know this makes me sound like I should be at Weenie Hut Juniors but it's the truth. Appearance wise the "snaps" are smaller than Rice Krispies and a lot stickier.

I didn't give up though , I will not be defeated so easily , especially without even a milk test, so in it went. The good news is , it tastes a lot better in milk. The flavour is diluted a bit and much more bearable. If you liked golden syrup then I'm sure you would love these as they are very true to the syrups original taste. The milk left tough was not good.Really not good, but again I don't like golden syrup and in hindsight , this was a pretty stupid thing for me to review. So to all syrup fans out there , let me know what you think!

New Lion granola review!

I'm going to be honest here; I've never had Lion cereal. I know! It's a sham! Who am I to judge this granola when I've never had the proper cereal. It gets worse, as I'm not even the biggest fan of granola. It's just there's usually too much of a honey taste going on for me. BUT I'm going to review this anyway because I'm a rule breaker, and this did look very tasty. Maybe it was the picture of big chunks of chocolate and caramel reeling me in.

 Well as you can see , I've been fooled! No big chunks of chocolate to be found here. Oh well, it still looks pretty good and there are some big clusters lurking in there, which did have some small chocolate chips. The aroma was also nice, with a slight caramel hint.

Granola is the only type of cereal that I think tastes better without milk, and these were very tasty and crunchy. I'm not one to snack on cereal tough , so in the milk went.

It didn't taste too different actually. There is a nice caramel taste with a slight chocolate hint, and it's always a better flavour when you get a cluster as apposed to lots of little bits.That could just be my imagination tough! Texture is very good, very crunchy, very milk resistant. The only thing I wasn't a fan of were the little oats- tasted like not cooked porridge, but then again that is what they are. I'm all over the place with this!

Lion milk isn't too dissimilar from cow's milk.I'll inform the scientists immediately. A slightly caramel sweet taste is left , and all of the fallen off oats sink to the bottom. nice surprise if you like them , not if you don't.

This granola is probably the nicest granola I've had. So if you are a big fan of granola you should defiantly try it. Theres something about it thats very moreish. Even tough it didn't amaze me , I still find myself wanting more.

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.

Tesco FreeFrom Crispy Choco-Nut Pillows Review

Gluten free products are becoming increasingly popular and I was happy and surprised to find these existed.I think we all know what cereal they are replicating and I was looking forward to seeing how they would compare.Why is the squirrel playing hockey? I really don't know , maybe it's working up an appetite.I however was ready for a bowl.

They don't have much of a smell , but that's probably because all the chocolaty goodness is encased in a crispy "pillow", so I was still hopeful. I didn't try one dry , thought I'd mix things up a bit and let it be a surprise because that's just the kind of crazy person I am.

Unfortunately I didn't have Krave to compare , but getting a few on a spoon I would say the taste is very similar. The chocolate hazelnut filling is delicious and how I hoped it would taste. Although they are quick to go soggy, the texture is still pleasant and holds the filling in well. You wouldn't be able to tell these were gluten free at all ! They didn't amaze me too much, but I think that's just because I prefer different types of cereals. If cereals had genres that was.Maybe I should make some up.

If you are gluten free you'll be happy to know this is a lovely cereal and I'm sure it will make many flour foes very happy :)
