I think I'd like those

Me too! Sounds nice for the summer.

Sorbet? I wonder..................where is the lemon ice water in it?


Sounds like a misleading description to me.

I will still try them.

Trading Standards in Blighty might be interested.

Might they?

Same as Sticky Toffee Aero, it wasn't sticky. 
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: goldencup on May 04, 2005, 11:20:13 pm
No, I think they should call it Messy Aero - it dropped bits all over the carpet.

These After Eights certainly sound good - but will they last??
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: kevvosa on May 05, 2005, 09:00:29 am
I doubt they would. Even dressing it up as "Lemon Sorbet" may not be
enough, not many liked the idea of a lemon Kitkat so I think same goes
for After Eight.



A Black Cherry After Eight would have been more logical.

These sounds nice. Could do down well after a meal I think.

Not sure these will be my cup of tea, but I have to say, I know people sl*g Nestle off, but they are leading the way in trying out unusual flavours.


That Black Cherry idea sounds good to me Kevosa  Turkish Delight even?

Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: kevvosa on May 05, 2005, 06:21:51 pm
Mmmm Turkish might be good too. Sometimes you see cheap versions of
turkish delight thins around Xmas, Im sure even Nestle can do better
than them. 
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: loulou on May 06, 2005, 12:57:47 am
I agree. Turkish after eights would be nice.

Strawberry cream? I'd go for those cos I love the ones in Quality Street.
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: loulou on May 06, 2005, 10:48:09 am
me too.
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: chocolate chick on May 06, 2005, 11:12:53 am
The black cherry would be nice with the dark chocolate. 
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: smurfboy on May 06, 2005, 02:50:39 pm
As would the strawberry.
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: chocolate chick on May 06, 2005, 03:18:34 pm
Very true.



What about a caramel type one?


Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: loulou on May 06, 2005, 03:54:45 pm
A caramel after eight would just be too good. I'd have to eat a box in one go.
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: gbliz on May 14, 2005, 12:05:30 am
a coffee one would be good
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: gbliz on May 14, 2005, 12:07:00 am

ooh how about raspberry. that goes with dark chocolate

Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: loulou on May 14, 2005, 03:13:59 pm
I wouldn't like coffee but the raspberry sounds nice.
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: chocolate chick on May 16, 2005, 01:02:15 pm
I think the coffee would taste good as would the rapsberry. We are just a gold mine of ideas

Post by: gbliz on May 17, 2005, 04:20:26 pm
shame raisins dont fit in after eights
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: smurfboy on May 17, 2005, 05:10:21 pm
What about turnip?
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight
Post by: loulou on May 18, 2005, 12:26:59 am

no

Post by: Cherry_Ripe on May 18, 2005, 09:52:27 am
Cherry goes with dark chocolate ... they could have Black Forest Gateau flavour After Eights

I think they are due out around Christmas time? 
Title: Lemon Sorbet After Eight

Oh I see - needn't bother looking yet then.

Post by: kevvosa on May 26, 2005, 02:43:24 pm
No they're out for Summer, I emailed Nestle and they said that some
stocks have been taken to be sold in small stores, and that they will
be quite a while getting into the shops.
