Review: Nestlé Princessa Milk Chocolate


This offering, along with its sister bar, the Princessa coconut and white chocolate (which I reviewed here), was sent to me by a reader for a review. And while the coconut bar was a relatively novel proposition, this bar is more traditional. At least, if Google Translate and I have correctly understood the the wrapper's text as it is described as a “Cream wafers with fluffy cocoa cream covered in milk chocolate”. The Milk chocolate makes up 37, 2% according to the declaration.

As with the coconut bar the chocolate covering is very thin due to the wafer’s large surface. And this makes me wonder whether it will be substantial enough. The chocolate itself looks fairly average and the bar also looks fairly dull in cross section view. The wrapper is OK looking and gives a good idea of the proposition. Appearance: 6, 5 out of 10.

The aroma is strange and fruity with a hint of cocoa. The wafer aroma is not too exciting either. Aroma: 5, 5 out of 10.

The wafer is crisp, though much too light which means it is gone too quickly and leaves you a little unsatisfied. The cocoa cream and chocolate barely hits the mouth before they melt away and there is simply too little substance in this one. Texture: 6 out of 10.

The taste is very dull and the chocolate does not taste too well as it has an off and bitter taste not otherwise characteristic of milk chocolate. There is very little flavour from the cocoa cream, which was a very nice feature in the similar – though much better executed – proposition from Ritter Sport (Butter biscuit) which I reviewed here. Flavour: 5 out of 10.

Average: 5, 75 out of 10
