For those of us who have a sweet tooth there are infinite possibilities of Candies and Chocolates around the Globe. Different markets have different tastes and likes and flavours. I love discovering new flavours and confectionery my biggest source is another mention Americanfizz.co.uk check them out they have a great selection of American, Canadian and European goods and a clearance section constantly order from. Supermarkets also time to time have some good finds.

This is a review of a variety of American, Canadian and European Chocolate bars, their are many others i will mention also but haven`t pictured. I will also reference them to familiar Uk Chocolates for a comparison. Made by Cadburys/Hershey Nestle Milka or other

I will have a separate Blog post for Lindt as their are many and also one for Kitkats

  • M&Ms – Peanut Butter filled, Carrot Cake ( white chocolate) Hot Cocoa, White Peppermint ( love these) Pretzel, Crispy, Mint
  • Reeses Pieces, Reeses Pb cups, Pb Cups white. ( we now have these in the uk Regularly)
  • Butterfinger Bar – A bit like a Cadburys Crunchie Bar but Peanut Butter flavour
  • Twix Pb limited back in 2015 Peanut Butter flavour from the states which i picked up in Tesco
  • Twix Cappuccino – Not sure of the origin but these were limited edition got from Poundland
  • Twix Ginger/Speculoos Spiced Ginger Biscuit flavour European got from Home Bargains.

CANADIAN PRODUCTS

I never really thought about Canadian Confectionery until Americanfizz started selling them. I then ordered a selection and even better some from the clearance section to try. First up Aero Truffle Bar the Vanilla kind is like a Aero Bar with a filling in it okay nothing wow, however the Dark Cherry one was very tasty almost Cherry Almond like taste to it. I swiftly ordered several more of those

Next up Oh Henry By Reeses this was nice almost like a Cadburys Picnic bar but with Peanut Butter. Big Turk was a big let down it is basically a Turkish delight bar found it very chewy. Jersey Milk is a plain Chocolate bar the Mirage Bar is a thicker type of Aerated Chocolate so like an Aero. Coffee Crisp Salted Caramel and plain both by Nestle similar to a Kitkat but more like a Time out Bar

AMERICAN BARS

Ghirardelli i haven’t tried many of their range but got these 2 Pumpkin Spice Caramel squares (Seasonal fall) has a slight hint of spice and Caramel centre like a Dairymilk Caramel. The Eggnogg square i was quite intrigued with White Chocolate and Nutmeg and does indeed taste like its namesake. I actually do not care for Nutmeg much but the creaminess of the White Chocolate goes with it. Hersheys Waffle Layer Crunch Strawberry was nice waffle pieces, Creme filling and Chocolate. Whatchamacallit much like a Lion/Picnic bar. Reeses Fast Break has Nougat, Peanut Butter and Chocolate could easily eat a few of these as smaller than the other bars.

Hersheys Gold Pretzel & Peanut bar is like a Uk Caramac with extra additions of Pretzel pieces and Peanuts

EUROPEAN CHOCS AND CANDIES

Zaini is Italian i believe we sell a few of them at Christmastime. at my workplace with the Cherry liqueurs I tried these Hazelnut Pralines and they taste just like a Ferrero Rocheo minus the wafer part. Brought some more after my 1st pack. Milka is Swiss and we do have quite a few different varieties here in the Uk but not the Strawberry Bar one or the Peanut & Caramel. I quite like the Peanut Caramel one so ordered a few more like a Reese bar but not. The Rom Bar is from Romania my work team leader gave me one to try and seen them in Tesco also. They consist of a Chocolate bar filled with artificial Rum essence flavour and The artificial rum essence is used in many desserts and breads so he told me and have tried a few also. Not for me as is quite strong and i`m not a huge rum lover.

Their are still many more products out there to try and will continue on with my sampling and review of them . As mentioned above i will have a separate post for Lindt bars and Lindor flavours and one for Kitkats as their are many different ones. If you have any recommendations leave a comment and will investigate them.

Thanks for reading
