This isn't exactly new, but Toffee Whole Nuts from Milka is one of
my favourites, so I wanted to introduce it here. Well, you
might guess it's a favourite of mine: after all, it's milk chocolate
with hazelnuts, ”caramel flavoured filling” and actual
caramel! Sounds good, doesn't it?
It is also a rare treat; I haven't been
able to find Milka Toffee Whole Nuts anywhere in the shops and
supermarkets in this part of the world, only in tax-free shops, which
I don't often have a chance to visit. That is really too bad... but
every time I get to buy some, I do! Last time, I only bought three
bars (300 g each) – it seemed like a lot at the time, but now I regret not
listening to my DH who wisely asked, ”Are you sure that's enough?”
It was not.
Now, this is one of Milka chocolates, so
the wrapping is the typical bluish colour with the milky Milka logo
(and the cow). The picture of the bar on the wrapping gives you a fairly good idea
of what's inside. The bar itself is divided into smallish squares, like this:
You can't see the toffee in the picture, but trust me, it's there.
The scent of chocolate is fairly mild,
as is typical of milk chocolates. There are, however, definite warm,
sweet notes of caramel in there.
And the taste! The milk chocolate is
pretty good, very milky, smooth and sweet. Every square contains a
whole hazelnut. To be honest, I could do without them, but they do
add a nice crunch and balance the flavours by reducing the overall
sweetness of the bar. For, in addition to chocolate, there is a
white, creamy layer of that caramel flavoured filling, which is sweet and
milky and melts in your mouth. And to further add to the sweetness,
there's golden caramel. It's sweet and buttery, not too runny and not
too sticky. Delicious!
This is a very sweet chocolate, so if
you're not into that sort of thing, this might not be for you. For me, however,
this is close to perfection!
