Areo Bliss - Peppermint (Tesco) By @Cinabar

Areo Bliss - Peppermint



I don’t buy a lot of regular chocolate bars, that is mainly because of this blog. I usually look for something new that I haven’t tried before and my hand goes passed my favourites in favour of something different to try. If I was picking favourites though they would be Wispa Gold or Aero Peppermint, so when I saw these Areo Bliss - Peppermint chocolates I bought a box. For myself, I know - but it has been a busy week!

I like aerated chocolate and Aero kind of implies that in the name but these chocolates don’t actually have bubbles. They are smartly wrapped in a gift worthy box, and the chocolate themselves are neat in their green wrappers. I tried one and the peppermint truffle within was soft and had crispies in it but not air. The flavour was very much like the peppermint Aero chocolate, sweet milk chocolate that had plenty of mint and had a lovely flavour. I liked the texture and even the crispsies too but I just think these should be more true to Aero Peppermint and have some bubbles in there somewhere.

Disappointing they don't have the bubbles. I love aerated chocs too. Whisper bars and areos.

I think I realised that for me texture is as important as flavour which is why I like bubbles too. :-)

A dark chocolate mint Aero or Wispa.

Now I'd be interested.

It's well known that milk chocolate and mint don't go.

And white chocolate After Eights are the work of a hormonal satan!

I'm not sure where I stand on white chocolate and mint and I do agree that dark chocolate and mint is awesome but seriously what isn't to love with a Mint Aero? It is creamy and refreshing, it is like sugar and salt it works!!! Spectre said he agrees with you but I think he is wrong too.

I've just had a Cadbury's Old Gold with dark choc and mint fondant - a Mintola bar , if you like
Australian sold in B&M

If the Aussies can do it, so can us Brits.
