No, as there are coffee ones in gorgeous which I don't like. I would like to try the Bendicks minty chocs though. And one of the new selections does a goosberry creme, I'd like to try that too.

The Bendicks Mint selection is very good! The bitter mints are really nice.

I have a gooseberry creme in my QS this year and it was yum.

Is the goosberry creme centre very sweet?

I usually like gooseberry things, like yogurt.  It's sweet but sort of tangy as well.

I bought some of the Pizazz in Tesco redusced. Knew I hadn't been that impressed when I tried them before, but persisted in trying again just incase the bargain element made them more attractive....  sadly still found them a disappointment . The only one that I would go back fo is the raspberry one. Still on the upside my disappointment was the kids gain!


Also took advantage of another reduced choc in Tesco ....After Eight Dark Chocolate Irish Creams. Usually like After Eights and anything with Irish cream flavour, but these are best discribed as repulsive

So who still has any Christmas choc left - or have you scoffed the lot?

Who needs karma when you know you're great already?

I have my almost intact tin of Quality Street (complete with Yorkies).  Also at work we have a large tin of Roses which we're trying to ignore.  So far so good.

I had a job deciding which flavour was which in my Pizzaz selection. The raspberry one was just about OK except for the white chocolate but the rest were quite nasty.
Old but spicey!

I'm glad I resisted them in the sales then.

I'm sure you soon will.  They were selling them off cheap in Sainsburys round here.
