Yorkie Biscuit and Brownie Limited Edition (Tesco) By @Cinabar

I don’t buy a lot of Yorkie bars. My favourite chocolate is Milka because it reminds me of childhood treats from my German grandma. It has a slightly nutty taste, and I like it for the memories attached to it. My second favourite is Cadbury, simply because it is super sweet and creamy, and I have a sweet tooth to match. So I don’t often buy Yorkies, plus they had that awful ‘not for girls’ advertising campaign in the nineties. Some of us remember, and yes, we are that petty. However, I can be tempted by a new flavour, so for a change, I picked up a bar.

This is the Yorkie Biscuit and Brownie limited edition. The bar is smartly packaged in a blue wrapper, though in a more aqua shade than the usual blue. Inside were the classic Yorkie pieces, each embossed with the brand name. I broke off a piece and gave it a try. The chocolate was nice, but I think you get used to the brand you normally buy, and that becomes your norm. I liked the chocolate, it was chunky and sweet, though not quite creamy enough for me. The texture was good, with the biscuit adding a soft crunch to the pieces, which I enjoyed as I like a mix of textures.

I have to admit I enjoyed the bar. It was a nice chocolate, and the addition of brownie and biscuit worked well. I’ll have to make more of an effort to keep an eye on new products from the brand and give them a try. This was a very enjoyable afternoon chocolate with my coffee.
