After Eight bars
« 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.
