I was rather excited when I first saw these new Strawberries & Creme Pots of Joy, I used to enjoy the Dairy Milk Strawberries & Creme bar Cadbury started doing a few years back every Summer. But after trying these, I realised I've essentially already had them before...they're pretty much the same thing as the Cadbury Roses Strawberry Dream Pots of Joy Cadbury did a few years back, and which I've reviewed. So does this rebranded version differ at all? Let's find out!
These do actually seem a tad different from the Roses Strawberry Dream Pots of Joy, rather than just having one layer of fondant, they have a layer of strawberry fondant as well as a layer of plain fondant. Also these contain "melted Cadbury milk chocolate" rather than Dairy Milk, so they're not quite the same as the Strawberries & Creme Dairy Milk bar either.
They tasted very nice, chocolatey and sweet with a decent strawberry fondant flavor and made for a good dessert after a meal. They're not outstanding but they're certainly a nice little treat, especially compared to other desserts in this category (I'm looking at YOU, Nesquik Vanilla Duo!)
Overall, despite the similarities to Roses Strawberry Dream Pots of Joy, this is a decent dessert and maybe my tastebuds have changed but it didn't seem quite as sickly as those did. If you enjoy strawberry creams then these are for you!
8 out of 10.
