Danette Choco-Coconut Dairy Dessert

During a trip to the grocery store, I stumbled upon a new product: chocolate coconut dairy dessert!

This product comes in packs of 4 100g dessert cups. It comes in a small cup about the same size as a pudding cup. For some reason it seemed like there was more in this cup than a pudding cup. I thought it was never going to end...

You might think this tastes like a Bounty bar, but it does not. The chocolate flavour is more intense and the coconut is more subtle. It also was not as sweet as I would have liked. I didn't think the flavour was that great because it just tastes like chocolate mostly, you can barely taste the coconut. I would rather just have chocolate Jell-O, to be honest!

 I don't really like the way it looks in the packaging because of the colour. That blue-green is not at all appealing to me. The dessert itself is very smooth and a rich brown colour. It smells very chocolaty, as you might expect. It looks a lot like pudding but it's less "jell-o"-y, as in, it doesn't really jiggle. It's less thick than pudding, a little sloppier. Think of it as a thick-ish chocolate-coconut soup (ew). I don't really like the texture of it.

I also don't like the fact that this dessert is made with 3% m.f. milk. This adds more calories and fat that I think it could do without. Personally, I would prefer if it was made with skim milk.

Overall, it's not the best product. I would suggest just buying regular pudding instead.

Is it worth the buy?

No, I don't think this is worth the buy. The taste is not that great and not what you would expect. I don't think this dessert can beat regular chocolate pudding!

Voortman Cookies & Creme Wafers

So today at Walmart I finally got something I've been wanting for years! Voortman Cookies 'n Creme Wafers! They are not new or limited edition, but they are new to me because I have never had them before.

I love anything that is cookies 'n creme flavour so I was really excited about these wafers. I can tell you right now that they did not disappoint at all.

When I opened the package, the wafers were all stuffed together and looked like a big cake. I love how they are put together and I love that the only thing separating these babies from my hand was the wrapper. No tray, no foil, nothing! Just easy-to-tear packaging. I do wish it was somehow resealable!

The cookies taste very good. They are similar to Oreo but much more delicate and they sort of melt in your mouth. The are very sweet and crunchy. My favourite part is the creme, It is a little bit tangy and it just tastes so good! I just had mine plain but I would recommend having these with a glass of milk. I'm not sure if you can dip them because they are quite, as I said, delicate so they might fall apart.

Although I do love Oreos, I think I like these more. The cookies 'n creme flavour is more intense. They also cost less than a package of Oreo cookies, which is nice if you are on a budget but still want something yummy!

I'm really glad I finally bought these because they are just scrumptious. Would highly recommend!! Just be aware, you might get addicted.
