Title: After Eight Orange Thins
Post by: one_serious_chocoholic on October 31, 2004, 02:42:21 pm

I don't exactly know if they're new, but I just saw these in Tescos today. Anyone tried them?

Yes. They're not bad but not amazing either. The dark chocolate isn't
dark chocolatey enough and the orange filling lacks zing. But I still
prefer them to normal After Eight.

I've had these and not really bothered if I don't have them again. I much prefer the normal ones.

It's because I have been force fed After Eights every Xmas as my mum seems to love them  Time for something new...an After Eight with cherry filling would make a nice change.

White chocolate ones too!

Just saw a packet in Wilkinson. Not sure if white chocolate and mint would go well.

I tried those last year - not convinced!  I think you need the contrast of the dark chocolate and mint to make them work.
