ReplyDeleteAfter Eights contain chocolate, always a must, and mint, always a great combination, and they never categorically state After 8am or 8pm, which is one of those great loopholes that you can exploit without feeling guilty.
ReplyDeleteCause Dark Chocolate and Mint is the best combo xx
ReplyDeleteMy hubby's favourite
ReplyDeleteAfter Eights are the only dark chocolate I like. Has to be from the fridge, and they have to be nibbled for some reason. Mmm, that crispy snap as you bite in to it........*wipes drool from chin* (sorry about that) :D
ReplyDeleteBest combo ever!! And they make me feel Christmassy x
ReplyDeletebecause they are just so yummy, when you start eating them you just cant stop

ReplyDeleteI don't but my husband absolutely loves them, he's usually frugal but he can never buy cheap brand after eights lol
ReplyDeleteAs a child we were only allowed After Eights at Christmas so the taste fires off my memory. No other after dinner mints are quite the same.
