Terry’s White Chocolate Orange (Co-op) By @SpectreUK

Terry’s White Chocolate Orange
I must admit I haven't had a Terry's Chocolate Orange for quite sometime. I used to get them quite often as a stocking filler for Christmas, and more rarer for Birthdays. Nowadays I seem to receive After Eights and or fudge. I do rather like fudge, and after dinner mints can be great after a spicy meal.

I eat chocolate and biscuits for puddings most nights instead of snacking on chocolate during the day. My favourite pudding is white chocolate, probably as I used to have it all the time when I was a child, and I promised myself when I was twelve that I'd never really grow up. My ultimate favourite is a white chocolate bar washed down with a white hot chocolate drink. Now that's luxury for me right there. This new Terry's White Chocolate Orange ticks a lot of boxes for me, and I see that's why I've been bought one when it's nowhere near my Birthday or of course Christmas. I know I haven't tasted it yet, but I am very excited about trying it with a white hot chocolate drink first, and perhaps some ice cream on another day.

On opening the box I thumped the wrapped white chocolate orange on the table to release some of the segments before unwrapping. As you can see from the photograph the white chocolate orange fell apart into segments quite easily. With my white hot chocolate ready by my side and the end of a spy thriller I've been watching over the passed few days paused for my first taste, I was ready to go. By the way I have the attention span of a gnat. I usually read four books at a time flitting between them and I also watch a few minutes of something every day until it inevitably ends. I actually find it's a good test for my memory trying to keep track of everything. It's also probably why I'm a project manager and prefer to be working on quite a few things at the same time in my work life… when I get back to it…

On first taste this Terry's White Chocolate Orange is lusciously creamy. The velvety vanilla from the chocolate pampered my tastebuds as the orange oil gave it that little extra zing. I at first hadn't been sure that orange flavour would go well with white chocolate. Then I remembered that I've recently taken to dropping fruit such as grapes, strawberries and orange segments into my protein yoghurt at lunchtime. I figured that it may possibly taste pretty much the same as orange and vanilla yoghurt. The Terry's White Chocolate Orange is a little more subtle in orange flavour, as there is Orange Oil in the ingredients, and the creaminess from the white chocolate coupled with the extra creaminess from my white hot chocolate drink was like an orange ride through dreamland (stifles a corny giggle). Mmm… I'll try the next round of Terry's White Chocolate Orange segments with vanilla ice-cream. This is definitely a treat for all year round, and not just for Christmas!
