There are five different flavours (and types of kiss!) in this Limited Edition numerically themed range from Magnum - full descriptions below. They are all inspired by classic desserts. I picked up a pack of the No. 1 First Kiss which only seems to be available in the Magnum Mini format.
It's described as "a custard flavor ice cream with caramel sauce and caramelised sugar pieces, all coated with a layer of chocolate".
The ice cream and chocolate are delicious in their familiar Magnum flavours. If you've had a classic Magnum before you'll know what these taste like. The milk chocolate is thick and packed full of rich and sweet cocoa flavor. The ice cream has a slightly richer vanilla flavor to it. There are lots of caramelised sugar pieces within the ice cream and occasional swirls of caramel too. The caramelised pieces have a nice crunchy texture that becomes quite chewy and sticky on the teeth. They have a slight burnt flavor to them that is reminiscent of a Crème Brûlée dessert, however they were slightly too bitter for me to enjoy the taste.
