Taste test 2K25: Magnum Utopia and Twister Sour and sweet

 (This Post was formerly an apology post due to my smartphone being broken and needing to replaced. as Mentioned, that post was always going to be replaced by this one.)

Welcome back or to Enlightened Towers...Where it's my 16 year anniversary!

And as such, it's time for our traditional food review, the 1st review I ever did when this was the direction I wanted to go online. With a food review.  Specifically,  Heartbeat international's Ice-cream for the European Market!

FRUIT ZINGER TWISTER SOUR AND SWEET



Flavour: Green Apple, Lemon and Blueberry 

Wrapper Appearance: Light Purple wrapper and everything is par the course. Photo of Item lunges out of a Kika, 2 closeups of the Item act as a border and photos of the fruits involved and the bragging of the lack of Artificial Flavours. Though 65 calories is the lightest this 72g Item has ever been.

Taste: the lemon and Green Apple,  especially the Apple spirals are toe-curlingly sour, though the Blueberry is a Reprieve from Complete Acidity, and ties the two together in a consistent Flavour profile throughout. Will definitely recommend this Flavour on a hot day.

MAGNUM UTOPIA DOUBLE CHERRY



Flavour: Blackcurrant& Raspberry marbled Ice-cream, in a layer of Cherry sauce and Covered in a shell of milk chocolate which is embedded with dried summer fruits. The 71g

Wrapper Appearance: Item, A Blob of cherry sauce and a trio berries lie on a pink square on a wrinkled piece of pink Fabric. 

Calorie Count: 213

Taste: The Fruity and rich cocoa Aroma are tempting me while observing to write this paragraph, waiting no longer, I bite into the Item. The chocolate shell adds more crunch than the little pellets of dried fruit that also have little flavour. However that thankfully cannot be said for the cherry sauce that kicks like a mule on first bite. Raspberry and Blackcurrant ice cream rippled with vanilla is sweet and Satisfying til the final bite. A wonderful little treat!

MAGNUM UTOPIA DOUBLE HAZELNUT 



Flavour: Hazelnut & Almond Caramel Marbled Ice-cream,  covered in salted hazelnut Glaze, in enclosed in white chocolate with pieces of hazelnuts,  pistachio and Almonds within.

Wrapper Appearance: Item,  A Blob of caramel and a trio of nuts lie on a Sepia Square on a wrinkled golden Fabric 

Calorie Count: 245 in a 70 and a half gram Item.

Taste: Sadly, the Item I bought has cracks and caramel leaking through the surface, so cannot  judge on Appearance, so straight to taste.

The caramel sauce is sweet, and it takes some time to register that it has a Salty Element to it. The Hazelnut & Caramel Ice-cream, I was dreading that it was going to be Heavy, but gladly no. Usually nut based Ice-cream feels like bowling ball after you eat it, but surprisingly this was light, despite being the most Calorific of this year's limited editions.

And that will do it for the Ice-cream review. But I am not done with food reviews!

Join me Next week when I review the Pringles/ Super Mario Mystery Flavour collab.
