Title: After Eight bars
Post by: smurfboy on April 13, 2007, 01:06:02 am
Spotted these in Tesco tonight - 1.19 each (introductory price), available in dark or milk. I didn't buy one but as far as I can see they're exactly what they sound like; After Eight mints in bar form. (I know it sounds like I'm stating the obvious, but there's an After Eight Royale bar available in Canada so I wanted to differentiate!

Similar to a Cote D'Or or Lindt bar.

These were on BOGOF in the 99p shop so I felt the need to buy (for research purposes).  The milk version I thought very nice.

I really like the dark choc one is it is so snappy when you bite into it.

The milk one is pretty snappy too - especially after it's been in the fridge for a while.

Straight from the fridge is the only way to eat chocolate (With the exception of anything caramel filled) but mint filled stuff MUST be chilled. I Cant really do the milk one tho, I find mint fondant only works with dark choc, and the white after eights were poor.

I usually prefer dark choc with mint too but unfortunately they only had the milk version in the 99p shop.  I like the Asda own brand plain choc/mint bars.

I explained in the thread - you had posted the same topic three times. Really I should have deleted it altogether as it is technically advertising.

EDIT: And since posting this I've noticed you've posted it twice again. We don't allow free advertising on the forum - if you genuinely just want some feedback, one thread is enough. People will look if they are interested.

If we were all the same, we'd have smaller shopping centres.

It  is me who is deleting your threads as I was becoming sick of reading the same post in three different places.

I closed that particular topic and explained why, so I don't see why Knowledge brought it in here. Anyway, he's gone now so let's get back to the bars.
