After my disappointment over the lack of detail on the Cadbury Mousse Snowman, I was hoping this Maltesers Merryteaser would be an improvement. Unfortunately, I'd forgotten about the Malteaster Bunny from my Easter Bunny Beauty Contest earlier in the year. That guy didn't have a face...so it was no surprise to find his reindeer cousin didn't either! At least he has a nose, I guess:
Come on Mars, you can do better than this! He looks like he was made using a Poundland cookie cutter! (I have nothing against Poundland, but still...)
Luckily, he tasted a lot better than he looked. The chocolate was creamy as with most Mars branded chocolates, and the filling was super smooth. There were crunchy Malteser pieces embedded within the filling, similar to those in the new "Maltesers Teasers" bars. In other words, this is the Malteaster Bunny but disguised as a reindeer!
Overall, this is a delicious Christmas snack which you really can't go wrong with. In my opinion it's a lot nicer than some of the other offerings this year (*cough* Dairy Milk Snowman *cough*) and would make a great stocking filler.
