[Review] Lidl Gelatelli Mint Layered Ice Cream Dessert

The Viennetta inspired layered ice cream desserts have been around at Lidl for a while but I wasn't in a rush to try them but since I recently tried Icelands salted caramel mini Vienna bars, I decided to try it to compare.
Only tried Iceland's mini Vienna because it was salted caramel.

I didn't have any expectations for the Gelatelli Mint Layered Ice Cream Dessert as it was from Lidl.
It was good that it was only 500ml while Viennetta is 650ml because there is less to finish if it didn't taste good.
The appearance is about the same with the intricate folds except for the colour which is obviously lime and not mint hence not so appealing.
It was really soft to slice so unlike the real deal you don't have to wait after taking it out from the freezer.
As for the taste, the mint was really strong to the point you can smell it when you open the wrapper. But as you keep eating, you get accustomed to the mint and the chocolate layers are quite crispy.
Overall, worth trying.

[Review] Morrisons Beetroot, Yogurt & Mint Dip

I love colourful dips so the Morrisons Beetroot, Yogurt & Mint Dip appealed to me because it was pink and pretty.

The consistency of this dip was light and creamy when you put your knife it in.

As for the taste I was surprised how tart it was as if a pickled beetroot got blended.
I know it is meant to be a dip but had it on toast and it was so delicious and you can see chunky pieces of beetroot in it.

[Review] Iceland's Majestics Mint

Went to Icelands and got the Majestics Mint which are inspired by magnums.
They were reduced to 50p so I was expecting cheap waxy chocolate.

Boy I was wrong, on first bite I was shocked how good the chocolate was but sadly it was way too sweet that it killed the mint icecream.

In contrary the mint icecream was tasteless.

I even rinsed my mouth and tried the mint icecream on its own and it was bland, there were some faint bursts of mint which tasted like mouthwash!

[Review] Vitasoy Mint Chocolate Flavoured Soyabean Milk

Vitasoy Mint Chocolate Flavoured Soyabean Milk was launched earlier in 2019.
It is not a new drink but relaunched for a short period of time.
There was a nice minty twist but it tasted like mouthwash however if you refrigerate it, the taste is better and not so sweet.

Kitkat Mint 2 Ways (Australia)

Kitkats used to be boring but there are now so many different editions and flavours from different countries.
Recently tried the Kitkat Mint 2 Ways from Australia which is visually pretty.


One end is chocolate and the other end is mint green.

It is 2 ways in the sense that one side has crispy bits while the other side is smooth.

Overall, I liked it because I agree with mint chocolate flavours but I preferred the smooth side.

Mint Maltesers

Discovered these new Mint Maltesers trending in Australia and I was so lucky to get a pack as my friend was in Australia.
They are so addictive with a minty taste but a bit too sweet so perhaps it would taste better if they had used dark chocolate.








Nestle Mint & Choc Aero bubbly mousse

I have always wanted to get this but unfortunately it comes in packs of four which I thought was difficult to finish but they tasted so good that I had two in one go.
When you peel back the lid, there is a pretty swirl of mint green and chocolate.
The taste is so light and airy that it disappears in your mouth hence the reason I can have two pots in one go.
The taste is a bit like mint chocolate flavoured whipped cream.





The regular Aero chocolate bubbly mousse is just as good but it just tastes of plain chocolate.
Overall, they tasted how they should ie light and chocolatey with mousse bubbles that burst in your mouth.
Mint aero mousse is still my favourite.
Will be trying the limited edition aero hazelnut mousse soon.





As well as dreamy mint & Choc bubbly mousse, you can also get Aero creations with chocolate/hazelnut mousse which has thin layers of crisp chocolate.

Nestle KitKat Choc Mint Whirl

I love mint chocolate so I loved this Choc Mint edition of KitKat.
The KitKat has these pretty green swirls on it hence the name Mint Whirl.

Very refreshing lime mints with an extremely strong lime smell that others can smell when you talk!

WRIGLEY's eclipse mints - Limited edition Summer

The packaging was nice so got the lemon mints and the peppermints, there were two other flavours as well which I cant remember.

I did not like them because the mint was too strong and the lemon taste was faint, but visually the mints looked really good because it was made of two coloured halves.






















Other designs!!

Green - umbrella / camera

























Blue - oyster shell or sunglasses

























Yellow - cocktail glass or handbag
