Crispo - crispy and good

Expectation:
It is a bit like cheating when you are testing a chocolate you have tested before. I know this will be good, not among the best, but good, value for money and yes... I will buy it again.


First impression:
The wrapping is quite standard, and I just do not like the colors and such. Actually that kept me from tasting this when it first came out.

Wrapping: 3


How does it look?
It looks quite good (but then again I know what it taste). Good chocolate and you are eager to find out if it is as crispy as you expect.

Appearance
: 4



Is it yum-yum?
I like this one. It is not special in any way, but it is still good enough that you will think... mmm... I remember I liked that one.

Taste
: 4


Did I need one more?
Again, it is quite good and I like it. I had one more bite right away, and more later that evening watching a film. I will probably finish this one soon. But do not be surprised if it goes a bit before you buy it again.

Frequency
: 4


Does it cost your shirt?
It was not bad at all. Standard price for this size of chocolate here in Norway. So value for money ain't bad.

Value for money: 4


Final statement:
I like it, you will like it, but non of us will think it is the best in the world. However we will both try it again.

Total score: 19/30

Cuba - for people who want chocolate with their milk



Expectation:
Cuba looks a bit more special, and it costs a bit more. Friends claim it is the best chocolate to have to... milk! I will try it without milk, but still expect it to be good.


First impression:
It looks like a chocolate for more grown ups, and the wrapping is quite good. It has it'sown wrapping inside to protect the chocolate and I like that very much.

Wrapping: 4



How does it look?
It looks quite plain. Two types of chocolate (milk and nougat) makes it look interesting (in a good way). But I would bet people who buy this know what they are getting and does not need anything fancy.

Appearance: 3


Is
it yum-yum?
The nougat taste gives you a good start, and the chocolate follows up. It does not fill your mouth at first, but the taste stays and you will have a good long nougat taste.

Taste: 4


Did I need one more?
This is a good chocolate with a good taste, but for some reason it is not a chocolate that I would prefer over the other ones. Maybe I am just missing the milk to make it great?

Frequency: 3


Does it cost your shirt?
It does not cost alot compared to other small bars, but you won't find this in larger size. Hence the price is a bit higher than it's competitors. But fans of this won't mind.

Price: 3


Final statement:
The taste it quite good and you will not be disapointed. I think most people will say it is good, and a very small group will have it as a favorite!

Total score: 17/30
Average score (round off): 3,4

Stratos - happy blue ox gets high score



Expectation:
It looks like nothing special, but a happy blue ox on the front with delightful chocolate. I bet it will be good.


First impression:
The cover looks a bit childish actually. This is a chocolate more for kids it seems. Ok wrapping, but nothing fancy. Protects the chocolate good enough.

Wrapping: 3



How does it look?

It looks quite tempting even if it not special in any other way. Just a nice chocolate that I think everyone would think is tempting.

Appearance: 4


Is
it yum-yum?
I like this a lot! It melts in your mouth, and unlike many other chocolates who only gives a bit test, this one fills your mouth. It has got bubbles and they claim it helps in the taste and I am willing to trust them on that. A nice long taste. Mmmmmmm!

Taste: 5


Did I need one more?
Yes! Stratos is a chocolate that will go fast once it is opened. It is actually great to have with potatoe chips.

Frequency: 5


Does it cost your shirt?
It is less expensive than other milk chocolates, but only by a bit. But this price won't scare you away when you know what you are getting.

Price: 4


Final statement:
I've had it before, and I will have this again. If I go abroad I will bring it to friends and family so they can taste it. It is only sold in Norway and it is really good!
