I had seen the new line of Lindt chocolates on display at
Target and refrained from picking one up just because I wasn’t able to pick the
flavor I wanted. A few weeks went by and I headed into Target to buy some
groceries and happened to have a $1 off coupon, so I figured I’d pick one up as
a snack to share with my boyfriend one day.
So I picked up the Lindt Hello My
Name Is Strawberry Shortcake.
The candy bar is a milk chocolate bar that has a strawberry
cream cheese center and it does have a little bit of a gritty crunch to the
inside similar to a cheesecake crust. The
chocolate itself is delicious – the classic smooth and creamy chocolate Lindt
is known for. The filling … it’s alright,
it wasn’t mind-blowing fabulous. It’s a
strawberry cheesecake flavor that has a bit of gritty crunch to it, which I assume
to be Lindts stab at the texture provided from graham cracker crust. The strawberry flavor however tastes exactly
like candied strawberries – which is not a flavor I typically go for. It wasn’t horrible, but it just wasn’t my cup
of tea. My boyfriend on the other hand,
did enjoy it.
A bar contains 2 ½ servings, with 4 square pieces being a
serving. A serving is 210 calories,
which I feel is rather high for the amount of candy you do get – which calculates
out to be 6 points plus values.
QUESTION:
Have you tried any of the Lindt Hello My Name Is … candy
bars?
