The Biscuits Moments range from Special K was released last year in two fruity flavours; Blueberry and Strawberry. I loved the Blueberry variety but I was pleased to see that there is a new flavor released for all the chocoholics out there!
I bought a box which contains five individually wrapped portions, each containing two biscuits which have 98 calories in total.
There are plenty of "breakfast biscuits" on the market at the moment, but the Special K Biscuit Moments are my favourites. They taste more like biscuits and less like a breakfast cereal bar. There are no oats or other "bits" - they are simply a thin crunchy biscuit with a sweet filling.
Surprisingly the chocolate center was gooey and soft. It's certainly not due to any heat getting near them as it's so cold here today! If I had read the back of the box I would have seen the description - "delicious baked, crispy biscuits with a soft chocolate filling topped with a vanilla drizzle". I don't think I've ever expereienced a soft chocolate filling in a cereal bar, it's unusual but very tasty.
The chocolate flavor is good but a bit too sweet - although it's perfect with a cup of coffee to curb the sweetness. I still prefer the Blueberry Biscuit Moments but I'm sure chocolate will have a much broader appeal. After all they provide a decent chocolate hit but with less calories. My kids and husband really liked these too - they have eaten a few of this chocolate variety when they have never been tempted by the Blueberry ones. If I want to keep these Biscuit Moments to myself then I'll have to stick to the fruity versions! Although I don't think my hubby would ever be seen eating these at work - Special K is definitely more of a female brand. Any male thoughts on that would be appreciated!
