Introduction
I first tried these Aero Bubbles when I bought the sharing bag from Tesco that was on offer for just over £1.00, I love the way they have changed from a bar into cute little sphere shapes, they are great. They look almost like maltesers from the outside but when you pop it into your mouth you experience something like never before. These were launched in 2005 and I cannot believe why I hadn't tried these earlier, these are bite size and I love them...
Packaging
The larger 135g pack comes with around 50 bubbles inside and is made of plastic with a rip off strip an a larger sticker to place over the top to prolong freshness! The smaller pack comes with about 7 bubbles inside which is great for a quick break! They both have the same theme, obviously green and brown, the same as the chocolate! On the front of the pack ...
Advantages: Fairly cheap, nice looking box, bubbly Disadvantages: Not a great chocolate taste, nasty ingredients, difficult to find in shops
I'd seen this advertised on TV quite a few times, and every time I did my big supermarket shop I would always have a look amongst the drinking chocolate/cocoa products but was never able to locate it. I would always ask several assistants at various supermarkets if they stocked it, and each time they would shake their heads and tell me that they didn't. Eventually, I gave up trying and continued to buy my Cadbury's Options. The only reason I wanted to try the Aero Drinking Chocolate is because (apart from good old Cadbury) Nestlé's Aero is the only other chocolate I like. I adore chocolate, including drinking chocolate, but it must be rich, sweet and full of chocolate taste, otherwise it doesn't really hit the spot.
Anyway, a few weeks ago whilst I was in the tea/coffee aisle in Tesco, I spotted this stuff. There was a sign ...
Advantages: GOREGOUS!! Easy to make, frothy and yummy! Disadvantages: None hehe!
AERO HOT CHOCOLATE
It's a little bit minty
Well I just made myself a nice cup of this so I thought I'd write a review while I have the inspiration in my hand!!!!! :-D
Well we all know of Aero Mint, they've been around for years. And now, you can get this, Mint Aero Hot Chocolate, along with plain aero and orange aero flavours, but this is my favourite.
There are two ways you can buy this, either in the 8 sachets (8x24g) or a 288g tub, which requires you to measure out your own measure of powder. But at £1 a tub at the minute in Asda, you can't complain at all!!!! :-D
Aero Minty is made by Nestle and the Nutritional Values per serving with 200ml water are:

so a mug every now and again isn't going to destroy your waistline ...
