Review- Thorntons NEW Fabulous Toffee Fudge Pots

First we had disastrous Biscuits and then the delicious Vote for me Chocolates.. Now Thorntons have ventured into Desserts with these NEW Fabulous Fudge Pots! 


I picked up the pack of 2, Toffee Fudge Pots in Tesco for £1.50. They are situated in the fresh section with the "dessert yogurts". 


Each 65g pot contains a mouth-watering dollop of creamy fudge mousse with a velvety toffee layer topping. Made delicious in Devon with real Devon clotted cream. 


Peeling off the lid revealed the delicious scent concealed within - It was a familiar smell that I couldn't quite put my finger on but it was somewhere between a vanilla-y fudge and toffee yogurt. I took a scoop and the 2 layers stayed pretty distinct both on my spoon as well as in the pot. The bottom of fudge mousse was light and fluffy as a good mousse should be with a lovely sweet and fudgy flavour. A silky smooth texture, quite similar to a yogurt came from the toffee layer above which was plenty thick and slightly colder to the mousse beneath. The flavour of the 2 elements combine was delicious and a bit like a Sticky Toffee Pudding - Never a bad thing! I did also feel there was a hint of coffee in there too but looking at the ingredients list, it appears not - Must have imagined that one! 

Overall, I am pleasantly surprised by these NEW Toffee Fudge Pots - I was half expecting them to be overly sickly but am pleasantly surprised. Having said that I don't expect you would want to eat more than 1 at a time which thinking about it, is probably the way you're "suppose" to eat things, sadly! The Fabulous Fudge Pots Range also includes Vanilla and Chocolate Fudge variants which I am keen to try after this delight from Thorntons! I am starting to think they read my scathing review of their Biscuits and have decided to try and win my affection back - I am that important, clearly! Its a 4 out of 5 from me!
