:Diablo No Added Sugar White Chocolate Cookies and Cream Review

The :Diablo No Added Sugar White Chocolate Cookies and Cream costs £2.60 for a pack of eight cookies. The pack is quite misleading as the cookies on the front are whiter and the cookies on the inside look cream coloured. Furthermore, I found that they have an awfully waxy texture and they have no white chocolate taste to them.

Taste and Texture

These are packaged in a much nicer way than their other cookies; there is around eight of them on the inside of the box. However, the taste is not really reflective of the appearance. They don't really taste like cookies and cream but rather have the overpowering maltitol aftertaste and the waxy texture isn't the best. They aren't really that sweet either which you would expect from a 'cookies and cream'.

The 'white chocolate' in this can't really be tasted at all. In fact, the ingredients mention 'white chocolate flavoured' which suggests that it really isn't white chocolate at all and rather is artificial tasting. Which I felt; due to the maltitol and the texture; the product felt extremely artificial.

Furthermore, they are much smaller than they look on the packing and it's small enough that it really doesn't have that much cream as you would expect while eating it. The colour on the packing is much more misleading; the colour is white on the coating but the actual cookie is a cream colour rather than what's presented on the packing.

Conclusion

Overall, the :Diablo No Added Sugar White Chocolate Cookies and Cream is a product that you just should miss. It has bad taste and texture despite the appealing packaging. The misleading coloration and texture make them look more indulgent than they actually are. They have an overpowering maltitol taste which makes them feel extremely artificial and lack in any genuine flavour to them. There is no white chocolate taste to these.
