Roys Çilekli kek

It's been a while, Blogger....
Well, about a week....

I've bought so much stuff to review the past week, but I've ended up eating it all anyway, haha. I'm such a pig sometimes.... Anywho, back to the reviews

Today there sits a cake from the Polish shop in front of me. Thirty nine pence it cost me. Here's a picture
Here you can see a fine example of cake packaging
It looks pretty good. I had no idea what it was when I bought it, the packaging caught my eye, but when I got home, I read the packaging and it says "Cocoa coated strawberry cream cake". Sounds guuurrrddd
And now we see the cake emerging from its natural habitat, the packaging
So, it looks kind of melty, but it was in the boot of my car for at least half an hour and it's been really sunny (I know! Sun! In England! Crazy....)
There's even chocolate on the bottom, so I'm guessing you have to pick it up with the sides, but there's not much room for error. This isn't designed for people with sausage fingers....
It smells strawberry-ish and vanilla-ish, but not very chocolatey
The sponge is a bit dense, not really light and fluffy, but it has a nice vanilla taste to it. The chocolate isn't very noticeable *sad face*
Let's get a bit with jam in.... Hmmm.... It doesn't taste of much, only just at the back of the flavour *sad face again*
I was looking forward to the jammy bit :(

Overall, it's kind of stodgy and makes your fingers sticky, but it's not bad for the price I paid. A tad flavourless, but....

YOLO

Did I just say that? Shoot me, shoot me now....

Charleston Chew

This was picked up on my trip into town the other day in a sweet shop which has a small American section
Well, well, well.... It's artificially flavoured! :o
What a surprise!
You can smell the vanilla through the pack. It's a nice smell

So this is nougat covered in chocolate. Let's give it a go

The chocolate taste is really nice and it's soft and gooey on the inside. Really soft. Usually nougat nougat needs a bit of chewing before it softens up, but this is almost marshmallow like. It's not too thickly covered in chocolate, it's just about right. Imagine a milky way with a bit more chew to the inside
Pretty nice

Eight out of ten! 8D
