I thought I would share with you another of the new products I have been trying as my alternative “breakfast at my desk”. To be fair to them though, these are meant as a snack rather than a breakfast replacement, despite being made by Kelloggs!
This new product from Special K comes in the form of biscuits, but aren’t as big as something like the Belvitas. In fact there are two of these biscuits in the pack, and both are fairly thin, but quite pretty as they are decorated in a vanilla drizzle.
The biscuit case seems very delicate, but has a nice wheaty taste; the star of the show is the blueberry jam in the centre. It may only be a thin layer, but it oozes berry flavour, and totally makes these biscuits. They are delicious. It reminded me of the blueberry filling from Nutrigrain bars, but a bit more intense. I love the floral fruity nature of blueberries, and this really shows off their taste.
The vanilla drizzle may look nice, but the flavour from this is a bit lost due to the strong sweet flavour from the filling. I loved the taste of these bars and would certainly buy them again. I am actually rather looking forward to trying the other new flavour which is strawberry. The only criticism I have is that they weren’t that filling, but for 99 calories they would make a lovely afternoon treat.

I got the Strawberry ones this afternoon from Tesco after seeing how nice they looked on the TV advert and OMG they are amazing! I've already eaten a few of them.

I'm just catching up on your blog since I've not read in awhile. I believe we have something quite similar here in the US called fruit crisps. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2719/4385989578_a51c566a7e.jpg
They're very tasty. I prefer the strawberry.
Anon - I'm loving them, will have to check out the BOGOF offer!!!
Kian - Yep, that looks like them. I've tried the UK strawberry ones, they are good, but blueberry are my fave.
