These Fried Egg Whips are a Foodstuff Finds store cupboard discovery, found during our sort out, and found to be a bit of a treasure. They were bought with Easter in mind, but we tucked into them this week as a bit of a chocolatey treat. I thought they were going to be like Crème Egg crossed with a Walnut Whip, but they turned out to be more Whip than anything else. The Fried Egg Whips are milk chocolate filled with a vanilla mallow (egg white), salted caramel (egg yolk) and topped with a dollop of white chocolate holding in place a mini egg and sold in an egg case style packet. Full marks to Marks and Spencer for the Easter theming there, these looked fantastic.
I started with the mini egg on top, which didn’t have too thick a shell and was easy to eat. Inside I bit the top to start and got a lovely couple of mouthfuls of salted caramel and milk chocolate which was fab. The caramel was a lovely rich flavour and the addition of salt worked well with all the sweet tastes, I thought this was going to be the best Whip I’d tried yet. Sadly after the next bite I realised the wonderful caramel was just a dollop on the top, and that the rest of the filling was vanilla whip. Don’t get me wrong I like mallow but if that beautiful salted caramel had run right through these Fried Egg Whips they really would have been the best thing ever.
