Fox’s Mint Echo

I’ve been very cautious over the past year as to what I review. Should I review biscuits with chocolate? Should I review those chocolates that only come in multipacks? I was never too sure, but I back at home for a bit and saw that dear mother had got some of these, mint flavoured Echos from Fox’s, a famous biscuit manufacturer here in Britain, and I thought “what the hey”.

The Echo comes in a few varieties, as far as I’m aware there’s a milk chocolate one and I’m sure there used to be an orange one, though I may be wrong there. The Echo is a long milk chocolate stick, with a biscuit base and bubbly, minty chocolate on top, quite akin to the Peppermint Aero in appearance.

So, a small peppermint Aero with a biscuit base? Well, yep, that’s just about what you get here. As you can see the milk chocolate is very thin, it’s really just holding everything together. The bar doesn’t crumble at all, it’s a lovely looking work of art that stays firm in the mouth though crumbs are to be expected when the bar is bitten. The bubbly chocolate is delicious, I love this kind of minty chocolate, it just tastes so good.

Overall, very impressive. It’s tiny, no weight here but I’m guessing around 20-25g, it’s only a snack for kids really, but we can eat them too and it’ll be our little secret.
