Guess what guys! Today's review is back to
biscuits, okay wait before you flip your table in uproar at least hear me out.
I do have a reason for going back on my statements from yesterdays review.
Basically these two items are either on sale right now or limited edition.
(coincidental tumbleweed of uncaring happens)
Fine! I know it is a feeble excuse for
going back on my word, but you know what? I don't care, I love biscuits. Hell,
I bet you love biscuits and anyway they aren't ginger biscuits again so at least
there is some variety here.

The two items in question are completely
different in their use too. One is aimed at snacking, pretty much to be shared
in a group type function like an ambassador ball (or more likely film night).
The other is more along the line of my usual biscuit binge, as an accompaniment
to my caffeinated beverage at lunch.
I'll start with he biscuit that was on
offer, mainly because it's not new just on offer so I get a sweet treat at a
discount price. Win, win in my eyes. These are a sharing bag of Cadbury's mini
fingers and not just any mini fingers but HONEYCOMB CRUNCH fingers. I know your
excited now right. So without further ado or cup in hand I chomp down on these
bizarre biscuit. They are definitely crunchy too, a great taste too when bitten
into. The milk chocolate is sweet but not too sweet that the subtle honey
flavour underneath can't get through. It has a nice toffee taste to it and is
similar to the chocolate coated cinder toffee I tried before.
If left to melt you can fully enjoy the
great Cabury's milk chocolate but with an added biscuit tinge. It's not quite
as sweet as usual but this is as I've said good as it allows the honeycomb to
step in. The biscuit beneath doesn't really do much on the tongue and isn't
absorbent in any useful way for it to be dunked. Still a really nice biscuit
great for sharing, especially with the re-seal able bag aspect. Although I doubt
you will need it!
Next up with have one of Foxes new American
orientated biscuits. Four limited edition flavours that Vinnie the Panda (Don't
ask) hopes will invoke a taste of the Atlantic in our mouths. This is the
flavour that most appealed to me and is Cherry cheesecake Jammy Dodgers. Which
is odd as Jammy Dodgers are one of my least favorite biscuit around. Too much
biscuit not enough filling. However, the idea of cherry cheesecake definitely
appeals to me.

Am I glad it did catch my eye? You be I am!
These taste great and I hope that they keep the range gong for a while or even
add to them. The cream filling doesn't really taste cheesy, more like a vanilla
butter-cream flavour. A bit too sweet on it's own. The jam has a very powerful
and nicely tart cherry taste that compliments the creams sweetness. The
digestive biscuit doesn't really have flavour of it's own but that's not a bad
thing considering the mix already on offer.
Overall both of these biscuits are great. I
would definitely recommend the American range whilst it is available. As for
the fingers if you have a party coming up then these are bound to be favorites
and enough to go around too.
