I love Brookside, but I was not a fan of this. I dont normally like dark chocolate, but I do like Acai berries. I would much prefer to have the little acai drops from the,
I did NOT want to like this, and was stunned that I really really did!
I'm not a dark chocolate fan, nor do I like flavours mixed with my chocolate, but I found myself intrigued with each bite.
Well played, Brookside, well played!
I received this as part of the chickadvisor product review club.
the packaging was attractive and connoted higher quality in the same vein as the lindt bars in similar packaging.
I enjoyed the chewy blueberry bits within the bar; however, the chocolate was too sweet for my taste, so i probably will not be purchasing this for myself.
It did taste like better quality than the typical store bought chocolate candy bar, so i would choose this over the 'cheaper' chocolate varieties out there.
I was sent this bar as a sample from Chickadvisor Product Review Club. The taste is only so so. I do have to give credit to the healthy ingredients they included - blueberry, almond and acai in a candy.
Brookside Chocolate Tablet bar in Blueberry Almond with Acai Flavour, was the last I sampled for free, through ChickAdvisors product review club. This bar is just far too sweet, claims to have almonds but you can barely taste them and the blueberry that is within the bar keeps getting stuck to my teeth. It also has left an unpleasant taste in my mouth. Perhaps the mixture of all the ingredients???? As I said in my previous reviews if you are looking for quality Dark Chocolate this just isn't it. The best of the three in taste would be cherry crisp if you were to purchase any. Otherwise skip this one there are far better Dark Chocolate bars out there! Disappointed in these Brookside Bars I was hoping for so much more!
Ingredients:
dark chocolate [sugar, unsweetened chocolate, cocoa butter, milk ingredients, cocoa powder, lecithin (soy) salt, natural flavour], almonds, sweetened dried blueberries (blueberries, sugar), natural flavour, sunflower oil *may contain peanuts*
The unique combo of blueberry, almond and acai was really nice, although I found the almond pieces a bit too small, so it seemed like there wasn’t as much. I guess I prefer the almonds to be a bit chunkier. It was still really good though! Out of the three flavours, I probably liked this one the least, even though it wasn’t that far off from the other two. Not sure if it was due to the aftertaste — it was really just a matter of personal preference. I would recommend to others.
I was able to get 3 of these chocolate bars to review and out of all 3, this one was my least favourite as I don't like blueberry flavour at all. I will say though that the quality of this bar was great. It wasn't all bad as the almond flavour in it shone through and brought out some good tasting chocolate. The acai I didn't really taste at all in it. I didn't mind this one though and I would recommend it for blueberry lovers!
I didn't mind this flavour, but you can barely taste the chocolate, and I like to taste chocolate in my chocolate bars. Nice texture, with some crunch and chewiness, though, and if you want something that tasted like berry rather than chocolate, you'd be satisfied.
Thank you again to ChickAdvisor for sending me this chocolate bar to try. This bar wasn't anything special to me, there wasn't enough crunch for a bar with almonds. The flavours were kind of confusing and not as distinct as I would have liked. I think Brookside needs to go back to the drawing board with this one.
I love dark chocolate and I was extremely excited when I was chosen to review Brookside Chocolate Tablet bars. the first thing I noticed about the coconut and Mango flavor was the smell, It smells like alcohol Malibu to be more accurate. This is in my opinion too sweet and the dark chocolate taste i love is lost in all the sugar and additional flavors.
