Post New Years there are lots of left over snacks and food presents to be consumed. We have a freezer full of party foods that we didn't end up needing. Oh dear. I guess movie nights got an upgrade.
As usual most of them are from the UK store Iceland - great for odd things to impress.
Here we have Jaffa Cakes, except instead of cake it's pastry, and frozen, and larger.
The box looks snazzy - the product looks more ordinary. It also looks like 2 boxes would have been better for sharing as a group. Three is a portion.
They survived well enough though - and defrost in no-time at all.
if you wanted to make them look more exciting then a little icing sugar or sparkly stuff could do that, still - it's an enticing proposition.
And they deliver. Yes - it's barely chocolate on the outside, but that's not the main event.
The orange is strong and balanced out by the cream which has a good flavour. The pastry does it's job well enough, and the brown on the outside holds it together.
Small enough to eat in a single bite, you'll want all of your portion. As a light desert and general party food though these are a hit and potentially one to pick up extras for storing once the freezer is a little less full.
