Candy: 100 Grand Bar


100 grand bar 6-7/10

Okay, so recently I have a craving for chocolate. Now I was pretty sick of the stuff I would be eating so I went to a little shop in my neighbourhood that sells British sweets that are not offered in Canada. So when I was there I picked out a few things and one of them were the 100 Grand. Now years ago I was online ordering a bunch of stuff for a party and one of the websites offered a free 12 pack case of these bars or Twix so I didn't really know what these were so I opted for the Twix. But I was so excited to pick this up today!

So the deal is that it is a chocolate with caramel, puffed rice and all that good stuff. When I opened it I was surprised that it was two pieces kinda like the Mounds bar and to my surprise it was VERY bumpy. There was all of these lumps on the top of the bar from the crispy rice. Now on the wrapper it says it's lower in fat, I guess that's what makes it 30% less fat compared to the other chocolate bars. So I gave it a bite and I was not in "Heaven" I think it was just a generic bar like everything else so I think it was kinda good but not so great. I mean it can be compared to the Mr. Big because of the caramel and the rice. I think this was an alright thing for me.

I'd rate this a 6. I liked it but it needs improvement.

Candy: Lindt Lindor Milk/White (Limited Edition)


Today, I will reviewing Lindt's Lindor (Limited Edition) Milk/White flavour. I saw this 3 pack of Lindor chocolate truffle balls in a local convenience store and had to try it! So the package is the regular box, but it has a white-creamish diagonal stripe in the background, and in the top left corner of the box it says "Limited Edition Flavour" with hearts around it, too cute. The description of the MILK/WHITE flavour is "Milk chocolate with a delectably smooth white centre". Sounds yummy right??

Okay now for the taste test - I opened up the usual Lindor foil wrapper, and it was a regular chocolate Lindor truffle ball. Their truffles are about the size of a Canadian toonie. The thin-outer chocolately coating was soft milk chocolate. Just the usual texture of any Lindor truffle. So I took a bite of it and found it was liquidy white chocolate centre that was the least bit creamy nor smooth... The white chocolate centre was way to liquidy and very bland. It has the similarities of Kinder bars (chocolately coating with white chocolate filling), but this white centre Lindor is a thumbs down. I was expecting a more sweeter fine white chocolate. I see why it was only limited edition.

My rating for Lindt Lindor Milk/White:
" 3 It's... ugh. "

I would not buy this again.

Candy: Toffifee

Click here for the Back of Toffifee box.

Price: $2.58
Suppliers: Walmart (confirmed)

For Mother's Day, I managed to find a box of Toffifee at Wal-Mart. They usually only appear during the Christmas holidays, so I had to get them. It costed around $2.50 comparably cheap, for a box of 15 pieces.

Each one-inch sized piece, contains a whole hazelnut inside of a Caramel cup, filled with nougat cream, and finally topped with a circle of chocolate. A combination of crunchy and chewy, with meltaway chocolate, and caramel sweetness.

This unique semi-sphered chocolate would make a great present for any occasion. It's just mmmm mmhm mm...simply delicious~ :)
A definite rating of 9.5/10 for Toffifee, amazingly addictive. Very sweet and chewy.
I hope they will come up with new flavours, such as peanut or even almond. . . mhmmm!

Candy: Chiclets Assorted Fruit

Price: $0.65 - $1.24
Suppliers: Dollarama, Zellers, Walmart, more.

The good people at Cadbury are always brewing delicious snacks and candies. Today I was at my Dollarama and I had a fever for candy. So I picked up a few things, one of them was Chiclets. I've tried this in the past but never considered reviewing it. Traditionally speaking I remember when I was a kid while ago every halloween I would get the “regulars”. The regulars were the best, chocolate bars. Rockets, Tootsie Rolls, lollipops and especially Chiclets.


(i) Cherry: The cherry one was okay. It didn't taste as tangy as you would expect from a cherry lollipop it had a minor hint of cherry. The flavour was fine. But also I'd say this was my least favourite.

(ii) Orange: This is one of my favourites. The orange to me was normal flavoured you would expect from hard candies, but the only thing I didn't like was that the flavour had vanquished soon. I ended up spitting it out.

(iii) Citrus: My favourite it had a minor sourness from the lemon and lime and the sweet from a grape fruit, very delicious but the packet only contained one piece, so kinda mad. The flavour was really a mild tanginess.

(iv) Strawberry: Not my most favourite. The flavour tasted fake. It didn't taste real. I didn't like it because it was too bland. It had no tanginess to it. I prefer sour. But I'd say if anyone likes strawberry candy, you should try this one.


My overall rating for this would probably be a 7/10.
Because I myself are not a BIG fan of most of the flavours.
I got these at a Dollarama, saying is a pretty good deal for twelve pieces.
