Mrs Crimble's: Dutch Apple Cake

Ok, I have to state at the start of this that I don't really like fruit cake. Sometimes carrot.... but. Anyway, as there isn't much on the market for shop bought vegan cakes I thought I'd give it a try. And it's not too bad, nicer than I expected. It's sponge is quite firm, it topped with a fruity goo that has crispies and raisins stuck to it. There is also a good cineman flavour running through it too, which is maybe why I like it. The apple taste is quite... faint, and it tastes quite cooked down like a less sweet apple sweetened with sugar. If you're a fan a fuit/apple cake you might give it a 4/5, but for me its 3/5.

Essential: Apple & Cinnamon Muesli

Today's review is for Essential's Apple & Cinnamon Muesli. I've eaten this with Tesco's almond milk which I'll put a mini review up afterwards. I've pretty much finished this packet of muesli now, which is about 5+ bowls worth. It's quite a nice cereal, if you like the apple/cinnamon combination, you can certainly taste both flavours. The strength of the flavours is kind of lacking, I wouldn't say weak but just above weak. By that I mean it needs something else if you really want a flavour sensation. So it might be worth chopping some fresh apple into it or putting some hot apple and cinnamon drink in it with the milk of your choice (if you have milk). Maybe some apple puree would do it. The texture is ok, it gets soggy fairly quickly and to me it tastes better when its still crunchy so I tend to eat it quite fast.

I might buy it again in the future, but for now I'm still trying new brands, and I have a suspition that there is another apple and cinnamon cereal I prefer. 3/5
