Day Twenty Four: Mint Aero

Alright Becky, here you go:

Mint Aero

Did you know:

• Aero bars are manufactured in nut-free services. They are made by filling the chocolate with loads of air bubbles then smoothing it with chocolate covering.

Check out this site...it is all about the bubbles. Although I cannot confirm that this site is done by Nestle themselves, or just a really big fan but you can check out all their ads, and even join their Facebook group!

Initially, this looked disgusting to me. Although it did maintain the same 'bubble' effect as the regular Aero, the colour on the inside was offsetting! It's neon Green! ha ha

As far as taste goes, the Mint Aero was alright, but I would but prefer an After Eight, or a Pep. This just tasted far too artificial and the colour of the inside made it incredibly obvious that it had been coloured. It would be interesting to know why Nestle didn't just flavour their regular Aero bar with mint instead of colouring the whole thing!

Overall, I think I'll save my money up and buy some After Eights at Christmas.

Day Twenty Two: Aero Caramel

Hey folks,

Well day twenty-two here. I must say that I am pretty eager for March to end, and to never HAVE to eat a chocolate bar again! It gets quite exhausting. Especially when I think about all of the (unnecessary) calories that I am consuming! Anyway, Bex I couldn't find a Mint at the grocery store, so here's today's pick:Aero Caramel
Have you felt the bubbles melt?

This was different from your regular Aero bar. It was a lot narrower, and thicker. I was confused as to how it was going to be caramel-y...whether it would just 'taste' like caramel or actually have caramel inside (I think the mint, but cannot confirm this, tastes like mint)

Upon first bite I was surprised to find that the bar contained actual Caramel. Not unlike the Caramilk bar! I'm happy to report that Aero did not lose the bubbly inside (this was under the caramel). The bubbles didn't melt quite the same as they do in the regular Aero bar, as there was caramel in the way.

This bar was rich, and very sweet, therefore difficult to enjoy the whole thing! To be honest, I'd rather eat a Caramilk bar.

NEWSFLASH: I just took the last two bites of my chocolate bar, and ALAS there was no more caramel!!! It ended early! How does this happen?
