Sticking with the sweet theme (as well as tesco free-from items) I desired to also review their crispie chocolate bar, which is one of my favourites. From the first bite it's pretty obvious that it isn't an ordinary chocolate bar; the taste is a bit different and the texture more film than chocolate such as dairy milk, which isn't neseserily a bad thing, I am yet to try other brands of dairy free chocolate so I can't currentl give any opinions on whether it's better or not than any of those.
I think the thing that really makes these bars is the crisped rice in the centre, giving the bar a different texture which I am surprised no other chocolate bars really use.

Accessibility and price:
These exact bars are only really found at tescos, and usually only the larger ones meaning they're not as accessible as I would like them to be, however when reader hung I found that both morrisons and sainsburries make their own version but I like near a descent sized shop of each and have yet to see a bar on the shelves. Price on the other hand is a different story, with the bars being only 40p!!! Far cheaper than the cadburys bar of the same size at half the price! Sometimes there are also buy 3 for £1.
Rating-***1/2
Health rank:
These bars are pretty low calorie for chocolate, weighing in at only 162kcals, against the above mentioned cadburys bar at 240kcals. Other than calories however the bar doesn't do very well for itself against cadburys being higher in both saturates and fat by several grams, it's kind of a disappointment especially since being worth 32% of your suggested average daily sat-fat intake.
Rating- **
Overall rating- ***
Like anything these bars are apsolutly fine in moderation and a great snack on the go or to feed your chocolate cravings.
