Today's Review: Cadbury Dairy Milk Mint Crisp


This one seems to have flown under my radar, I spotted this little bar of Dairy Milk nestled among the other single serve chocolate bars. Mint Dairy Milk has appeared in both Puddle and Oreo forms lately, but this one offers a bit of crispiness too, in the form of honeycomb pieces. It's the chocolate itself that's mint flavoured here, rather than the filling, so that's interesting. Also, I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that this eight square bar comes in an easy reclose pack, so you can save the rest for later. Because there's no way you could finish this in one sitting...

This is a very minty chocolate bar. I had to do an extra read of the description just to see that honeycomb is a factor here, because it's not present in the taste. The crunch it provides is good enough, but the mint just overpowers everything else, and since it's actually embedded in the chocolate it's always at the forefront. I mean, it's a decent tasting mint, but it's just a bit too much. I prefer the levels of mint Cadbury have put into their other bars, this one just isn't as good in comparison. 

My rating: 3/5

  1. mm i love mint, i'd not seen these either - i liked the Puddles, but have they been withdrawn?

    "great for sharing" what a load of rubbish, no one reseals the packet. they really need to make these packets recycable - i bought some cat food and the bag was compostable - if its ok for cat food, im sure it's ok for chocolate!

  2. For me, mint HAS to go with dark chocolate, e.g. After Eight.
    Milk is too sweet.
