Ever wonder how Whittakers can outdo themselves? Well, I'm going to tell how they did it, at least from my point of view.

They took their most iconic chocolate, the OG Peanut slab, and zissed it up. They added a hint of salt and caramel brittle, creating their best chocolate block ever.

The new Whittakers Peanut and Caramel Brittle is simple irresistible. The peanuts seem more crunchy than the ones in the peanut slab and the caramel brittle isn't very sweet, and the oh so subtle faint hint of salt leaves your taste buds wanting more.

One block isn't even enough to share others, let alone settle your craving.

When NZ and Australia meet on the sports field or court or anywhere there's always a tense rivalry but a great spectacle to watch.

But when NZ's best chocolate producer teams up with one of the Australian's best product producer Bundaberg, there sure to be something worth getting exited about.

No need to keep harping on how wonderful Whittaker's chocolates and their caramel is, it's time to put the spotlight onto Bunderberg's ginger.

Bundaberg's ginger isn't over powering, nor too spicy which compliments this combination perfectly. The ginger is balanced perfectly.

Whittaker yet again has found a partner to make another perfect block of chocolate.

When NZ and Australia meet on the sports field or court or anywhere there's always a tense rivalry but a great spectacle to watch.

But when NZ's best chocolates teams up with one of the Australian's best product producer Bundaberg, there sure to be something worth getting exited about.

Always knew Bundaberg produced great tasting beverages but never knew they produced caramel, let alone ginger flavoured caramel.

No need to keep harping on how wonderful Whittaker's chocolates are but Bundaberg's ginger caramel was delicious. The caramel was smooth and tasty, not overly sweet which caramel can be.
The ginger isn't over powering, nor too spicy either which completes this combination.

Whittakers does it again, picking a perfect partner to make another perfect block of chocolate.

When one New Zealand's iconic brands teams up with one of New Zealand's best milk production company you're in match made in heaven.

Lewis Road Creamery and Griffins has just done that. A lovely lightly spiced gingery flavoured milk perfect for a mid winter xmas delight.
Beautiful and creamy.

Definite recommend a try

Stop the press, stop what's ya doing and go find this tasty morsel.
The kiwi ionic chocolate slab as a chocolate peanut ice cream slab.
Simply delicious. Ice cream lite and airy.
Enough peanuts scattered through.
This one definitely the best of the Whittakers and Tip Top ice cream collaboration.
If I could do what I did when when whittakers and lewis road teamed up with their chocolate milk, I'd empty the freezer and stock pile this one for sure. 🍫 .tags

Damn, this company, Heartland Chips has outdone itself again. They produce great tasting chips.
This limited edition Tokyo Tang is delicious is another one from their production line.
The flavour is wasabi mayonnaise.
If you're a fan wasabi but find it too spicy, this potato chip is perfect for you. Theres a great balance of wasabi with slight hint of spiciness that gives the wasabi sensation of tickling your sinus.

Definitely worth going and getting a few packs.

Lewis Road Creamery and Whittakers have teamed up again and produced a delightful S'mores chocolate flavoured milk.
A well balanced flavour of 5 rolled chocolate and marshmallow.
Great being drunk cold or heated up.

Mmm... a new flavour from Bunderberg. A very delicious tasting ginger beer with a hint of lemon.
Glade it was available in NZ before Aussie.
Shame it's a limited edition. Might need to buy a few more packs.

Bluebird releases a new potato chip, this one's a prawn cocktail. Shame there is no prawn flavour just a lite vinegar taste which was a delight to munch on.

Wow...wow... wow....
Whittakers have done it again with their limited edition series of chocolates. Last year we had the Full Eight and now this year we get this.... the Honey Bubble Crunch.

This is absolutely delicious.

Love the crunchiness of the rice puffs with honey nougat. Every bite I was thinking if it's the honey nougat I was eating or caramel. Either way I have to force myself to stop eating more.

Mmm.... mochaccino. Not easy to find a delicious well balance mocha around. I would say this is pretty close to the mark but I think a little more coffee would have been nice.
The delicious whittakers 5 rolled chocolate comes through. I almost felt like I was eating an easter egg more than drinking a flavoured milk.

Can't go wrong with Lewis Road and Whittakers
