I have to say I am loving our new branch of B&M which has opened in our the local town centre. It is quite big and has an exciting range of confectionary and biscuits which is always worth a wander around and I always seem to find something different each time I pop in. Perfect for Foodstuff finds. This time I saw these Pepero - Peanut and Pretzel Golden Crunch biscuits, they are stick biscuits similar to our UK version of Mikado or the more usually imported Pocky biscuits. These ones originate from Korea. They are covered in a peanut coating which looks quite generous, weirdly the back of the box refers to this as a “vegetable cream” but something may have been lost in translation.
I opened up the box and had a look at a couple of the sticks. They do look nice, there is a pretzel stick with plenty of nutty coating. I liked the flavour too, the saltiness from the pretzel worked nice with the peanuts and it gave them a lovely mix of sweet and salty. The coating is creamy which helps them mellow out too. These are easy eating biscuits that are just a bit different. It has been a while since I last wrote about Pocky style biscuits and I will have to keep my eyes out for more flavours as this has been a nice reminder as to how nice they are.
I’m eating these with a hot chocolate of New Year’s Eve - and just wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year.
