Aero Golden Honeycomb Melts (Sainsburys) By @Cinabar

It is starting to get confusing. I have noticed that whenever the economy is poor, caramel/ honeycomb/ golden white chocolate, etc. flavours increase, presumably because it is a safe bet and nobody wants to launch a risky variety at the minute. It is however getting confusing; Aero Caramel Melts (also in a gold packet) still have a ‘new’ label on them, and when I saw these Aero Golden Honeycomb Melts, I almost didn’t buy them as they look so similar. These are honeycomb the other ones are caramel, both gold bags.

They are thankfully a little different, the honeycomb ones are milk chocolate, and these are caramel white chocolate. Once the bag was opened, there was a lovely rush of cinder toffee aroma, it was sweet and very appealing. Inside the bag are button-shaped chocolates, all made with aerated bubble, which has a lovely texture. The flavour was a delight, it was spot-on sweet burnt toffee, and it was a creamy delight. They are sweet, and maybe too sweet for some, but they worked for me.

I do like caramel/honeycomb/golden white chocolate flavours and these Aero Golden Honeycomb Melts are a delight. I do still crave something more adventurous, a lot of our ‘to review’ pile is caramel in one way or another!
