Vegan Christmas: Reutter Chocolate Creams

It's mid November folks... the Christmas reviews begin. Dark Chocolate Coffee Creams, Orange Creams, Strawberry Creams and Mint Creams from the Pound shop, made by German firm Reutter. These are a pound a box for 150g (18 chocolates)... at that price, they can't be any good..?

These chocs are surprisingly well packaged for a budget offering, with a stout glossy box and a cellophane wrapper around a tray of perfectly kept chocolate creams. The chocolate is glossy and immaculate - you would think these were more expensive than they are.

The flavours are a mixed bag. We had high hopes for the all-too-rare vegan coffee creams, but were disappointed by their blandness and dullness. That was countered by the surprisingly good fruit creams. Strawberry and orange creams are usually sickly sweet and artificial, but these are genuinely natural flavours and not too sweet either. The mint creams are also nice and mild - not like a mouthful of toothpaste.

Look elsewhere for dairy-free coffee creams, but for fruity creams and after-dinner mints, these are pretty good at any price. Look out for this logo on packs:

The Good: Natural tasting fruit creams; mild mint creams
The Bad: Bland coffee creams
