Whenever Mr NQN and I stop at the petrol station I always jump out to take a look at the snacks on offer under the pretense of stretching my legs. I sometimes buy myself an ice cream and it’s usually a Magnum as I’m very so slightly crazy for them. And there’s a new Magnum to add to the lineup. The Magnum Infinity is available in two flavours, Chocolate and Caramel (100ml) and Chocolate (60ml), both flavours are a combination of chocolate ice cream, covered in dark cracking chocolate and real cocoa nibs. The Chocolate and Caramel variety contains a ‘bonus’ caramel swirl throughout the chocolate ice cream. The cocoa used is a rare Tanzanian cocoa containing a high concentration of theobromine, a phytochemical known to have a mild, stimulating effect.
To celebrate the new launch, Streets Magnum and Not Quite Nigella are giving you the chance to win two pleasure packs! These contain:
Pack 1:
Dusk Chocolate Caramel Candle

They sound delish!
I embarassingly bought a Cadbury Time Out bar from the charity chocolate box at work yesterday. Not worth it. Now I feel fat and need to exercise!
YAY! Definitely indulgent packs hehe woo hoo ~ The last snack I bought was a watermelon and aloe vera drinks as a late night snack hehe
Thanks for the opportunity to win ~
ooh love magnum! ego used to be the best! my last snack purchase was a chokito bar! love it yum!
Hi Lorraine, I do exactly what you do when hubby fills up and if it’s ice cream I buy it’s either a magnum or a icy pole if it’s a really hot day. My last snack I bought was a wagon wheel, was very stressed at work this week and they bring back childhood memories of when life was just that little easier
Potato crisps to go with the low-carb beer I was drinking at the time.
i had to buy this peanut butter cake as it looked deliciously naughty and it was the last one! the cake was just devine and the icing so gooey and peanutbuttery i was in heaven
The last snack I bought at a petrol station was some potato chips because potentially they create less mess in the car than a melting ice cream xx
I bought a truckload of Easter eggs when we visited a confectionary outlet recently. Everything was sooooo cheap!
Hey NQN, the last snack I bought was a bag of baby carrots and a jar of unhulled tahini. It’s kind of like eating celery and peanut butter but tastier and super healthy as well!
Oooh, pleasure packs sound slightly naughty. I love the sound of the choc caramel Magnum – a flavour combination I adore.
The last snack that I bought was musk Lifesavers, because I needed a sugar kick at work and I thought that Lifesavers were slightly more virtuous than chocolate.
My service station always has a very tempting covered tray of Lebanese sweets in 3 varieties which can do just nicely if you haven’t thought through other dessert options.
Thanks, Lorraine. The ice-cream freezer section, to sample not one but 2 Magnum Infinities, is now certainly on my radar.
A packet of crackers and some Maggie Beer pate because it was on special!
Last snack I bought was this delicious-looking apple and pistachio crumble with loads and loads of goopy cream. Sadly, it tasted kind of weird and gross. The cream was set with gelatine to make a kind of blancmange
What a great prize!
Yesterday I treated myself to a packet of mixed lollies, just like those from my childhood. Was a delicious trip down memory lane!
O… M… G…. I LOVE LOVE LOVE MAGNUMS!!! How exciting!! Real cocoa nibs… that’s totally made my day!
Last snack I bought – and it was unusual, because I rarely buy them – was yesterday at uni, because I’d done 1.5hrs cycling & 1/2 hr run, and was slightly starving. I was having coffee with a friend (supposed to be lunch, but I had eaten mine in a fit of starvation 1/2 hr before), and saw that the local Law School cafe (which sells absurdly good university food in comparison to the rest of the campus’s overpriced rubbish) was selling small bits of cakies and slices, one of which was a lemon slice. I had just enough cash for it, so I bought it – so nice! It wasn’t lemony enough for my taste, but it had lots of coconut too, which was lovely.
Although I love a Magnum. Either a Classic or a Ego goes down a treat. I might require one for dessert tonight… rats.
Last snack I bought was Lindt Chilli chocolate. I am usually a savoury kind of snacker, but when I want chocolate I want chocolate super bad ninja style! This snack is perfect accompanied with a glass of red vino & even some cheese!
The last snack i bought was a cadbury creme egg, i still cannot go past them after all these years! Yummy!
Despite being on a “diet” I bought a Nutrageous bar. I couldn’t resist the peanut buttery goodness! It was worth the guilt
I bought yet another bag of Pascall’s Fruit BonBons. I don’t know why Coles and Woolworths aren’t stocking them any more but it took me ages to track them down… and then I discovered that they don’t do the pineapple ones anymore. Oh well, can’t complain as I’m certainly eating them… six bags in two weeks means they’re going down well, right?
As to why I chose that… uh, I didn’t, exactly. It’s a better pregnancy craving than the salted potato chip and chocolate sandwich I wanted the other day, and it makes a change from the usual ice cream, ice cream, ice cream.
The last snack I bought was actually a Magnum Classic ice-cream, for real. We were watching Love Never Dies and during intermission, nipped across the street to grab them. Magnums beat the theater choc-tops hands down :9
Yum! Last snack a bought on a road trip was actually choc covered rice crackers. They were new and I had to try them : much like the sound of these!
Salt and Vinegar chips. I know they’re naughty, but I love them!!!
I’m with you I also use the ruse of streching my legs at petrol stations when out for a drive. My latest snack purchase was a Jupiter Bar…..mmm….yum…mmm…thee lovely chewy caramel just like I remember from my teenage years mmm…… Might have to go and get another one or two or more hehehe
The last servo snack i bought was a Killer Python, purely just to re-live my youth!!!
I bought some fabulous cheese and crackers and had them at the park while my daughter played. The pack contained Edam, Camembert and Apricot and Almond cheese. Does this qualify as a snack if I only had a little of each? lol.
thank you for this chance – the prize is fantastic! as a single mother, I reeeeeeally need some pampering! a massage would be awesome.
Treat Size pack of Caramello Koalas yesterday – it has been an extremely tough week for me.
dark chocolate made with agave syrup and coconut oil … it was on the counter at my beauticians and I just had to try it!!
Hi Lorraine, the last snack I bought was a pandan and coconut flavoured sponge cake. I bought it because I really wanted something sweet and fluffy! Cheers, Kat
the last snack i bought was licorice ice cream, which is so hard to find these days that i pigged out
the last snack I brought was peannut brittle from Darrel Lea, went in on a spur of the moment decision and really enjoyed it. Yumm…………….
My favourite snack would be ice cream and Magnum’s are very morish and adictive love some many different flavours of theirs
my last snack i had was last night, my husband and i decided to go out for a ice-cream and saw that there is new Magnum chocolate and caramel ice cream so we both had that and it was delicious!
My husband is a Magnum tragic. He tries to hide it, but I find the wrappers in his car. Sad, really. I, being so very virtuous, try to snack on nuts and dried fruit.
A packet of Burger Rings. Love it. So old school and brings back memories.
Hello,
I bought bananas and pretzels + dark chocolate. I am gonna dip the pretzels in chocolate and eat it with fresh banana. For me it is the most delicious snack! Thank you for this opportunity!
Katerina
I try not to buy snacks because I always have goodies at home but the last thing I bought was probably my little elephant gingerbread. I bought him because he was too cute to resist and oh boy did I enjoy eating him!
After a frustrating time trying to trace my lost reading glasses in every shop I had just been in I stopped for a coffee reviver and bought a piece of cheesecake. I am VERY partial to cheesecake but it is a treat. However this one had fruit on top so it was healthy (I told myself) and necessary because of my lost (forever) glasses.
I bought a tube of Chilli Pringles (half price!) and they were delicious!
Cheesy chips from a vending machine after a swim! I don’t even like them but there wasn’t much else!
The last snack I bought was a packet of cheese Twisties. I hadn’t had them for ages and suddenly got a craving.
Wow – the new Magnums sound delish!
I treated myself to some Jarlsberg cheese – very naughty but very nice!
at the moment being preganent i am craving all kinds of weird things – the ltest one was bread, blackberries and goats cheese, all together – it fixed the craving
At the corner shop whilst buying bread and milk my little one asks for the super big one – the Magnum that packs the punch the Magnum “BIG CHOC COOKIE” her litte eyes wide open with that super wow surprise as she stares at the golden wrapper – how could any Mother resist so I had to buy it for her.
I have to admit that I bought magnums yesterday. I sneaked them into the trolly and my husband was unpacking them onto the checkout and then I did my the move. One step forward takeover that job so hubby could put scanned things into bags. Then engage in chit chat, shall we go out for lunch in the garden of the local cafe. I take over the last few items including the Magnums as darling hubby pays. Sneaked into bag and car and freezer when home. What a delight when hubby is delighted with his magnum after supper. We did get lunch and so cheese on toast followed by yummy Magnum enjoyed gratefully and not told off! Will get the new ones without being sneeky next week.
There’s a reason the servos put the ice cream box along your path to the til and the candybars just under the window. I hate buying petrol so normally I’m not so inclined.
My last snack from a servo would have been an ice cream. I can’t resist them.
Last snack was a Violet Crumble bar form the supermarket to provide that post shopping afternoon sugar hit!
Cadbury cruchies are my snack down fall, I cant help myself, anything chocolate I am sooooo naughty.
I’ve discovered chilli kri kri peanuts and I think I’m addicted. I’m sure they’re very unhealthy (but hey, I’m about to post about cake again, so who’s to judge?), but I love them!
I BOUGHT ORGANIC BRAZILIAN NUTS AND SUN-DRIED APRICOTS FROM THE SATURDAY ORGANIC MARKET AT OUR LOCAL SCHOOL BECAUSE I FIND THEM FRESH, NUTRITIOUS AND DELICIOUS.
The last snack I bought was a Cadbury Chocolate Easter Bunny. I obviously had to ‘test’ the merchandise before I bought for the children. Easter chocolate is the best. I think it’s the shapes – bunnies in particular.
I would love to try The Body Shop Chocolate Shower Cream. To actually, literally bathe in chocolate – **YUM**.
My ‘inner child’ got restless while waiting at checkout so i reached for a mini Cadbury gooey chocolate egg- it was yummy, and yes, i did pay for it….:-)
My latest snack purchase was an Aldi chocolate creme egg (because it was staring at me at the checkout!), not as nice as the Cadbury original.
Yesterday I was shopping at Woolworths as usual. Grocery shopping is my “me” time and I find it very relaxing! As I came round a corner from a isle there was a giant tub filled with the biggest bags of honeycomb you have ever seen for only $2.99. I haven’t had honeycomb since a kid – many moons ago – and thought they would be an indulgent treat and bring back heaps of memories. I loaded them into my trolley, that was yesterday and last night I couldn’t stop eating them….sad to say that devouring a whole bag of honeycomb in one night will be the now be the new memory for honeycomb…Oh no what have I done!!!!!
Last time I bought a snack was a Mars bar… yummy! I’ve just hidden a whole bag from my kids, might see where those are…
Sour Cream and Chive Pretzels are an amazing treat,
Come in snack size packs so good for little ones.
Tasty and delicious and a healthier option to crisps.
After visiting the Dentist I had a huge craving for Gelato. I managed to convince my husband to drive around and around the block to where I had seen the “Gelato Messina” shop front last time we were in the area at Darlinghurst. After eventually finding that parking spot we proceeded to walk down to buy our gelato – mine was the luscious ‘caramel with white chocolate pieces’ and my husband had the healthier version of ‘yoghurt with caramel swirl’. Just as we ordered the one scoop each my eyes lit up upon seeing the ‘coconut and lychee’.. which I thought about for a second wanting to add another scoop to adorn the top of the ‘caramel and white chocolate’. Unfortunately my better judgement got the better of me and I eventually settled on just the one ‘scoop’! My waistline felt the better for it and I made my peace by deciding that I was coming back to the dentist next week so would have another gelato hit (possibly 2 scoops) of the ‘white chocolate and lychee’. I am sure the dentist would not be too pleased. Not long to wait!! By the way, the ‘caramel and white chocolate pieces” was delicious!
I’m a savoury tooth rather than a sweet tooth, so my last snack was a packet of vege chips with sea salt and vinegar. The ‘reduced fat’ label made this guilt free (even though it shouldn’t have!).
I bought scorched almonds, as I justify them to myself by saying that at least it’s not all chocolate the protein and nutritional value of the almonds, cancels some of the naughtiness of the chocolate.
My last snack was sour gummy worms because I was craving something sour and it was on discount. Haha.
The last snack I bought was some twisties, I had a serious salt/cheese craving.
Oh, I do like the look of that new Magnum!
My last snack was a jumbo-sized plain Freddo frog from a charity collection on a ward at the hospital. Just what I needed to get me through a very long ward round!
The last snack I bought was a pack of Sesame snaps. I opened the pack before I even got to the car!
Thanks for the opportunity to win!
A cheeseburger through McDonalds drive through! I was in a rush, and it hit the spot perfectly
Salt & vinegar french fries!! They’re so yummy & my favourite naughty snack, so shhhh
Jam donut from our local bakery. They’re huge, always so fresh and at an amazingly low price of 80 cents!! My favourite snack and a budget price.
A Cadbury Fruit and Nut Chocolate Bar. The mix of chocolate, fruit and nuts is simply irresistable and it’s my favourite treat.
The Chocolate and Caramel variety,mainly because we love both,I hide them behind my back mix them up and he chooses a hand.
Reeses Peanut Butter Cups! Because I’ve been addicted to them ever since I first tried them in the U.S.!
I am not commenting to win (not in Australia and usually don’t win anything anyway), but I couldn’t miss the snack post, could I?! Walnuts and Nutella my latest favorite.
“Lindt dark chocolate with a hint of salt” was my last purchase; I was tempted by a no of things.
1. New flavour … I’m sucked in by new flavours & marketing gimmicks! It’s Chocolate and lindt of course is the best. So that’s enough reason said but I have more!
2. “DARK” chocolate swayed me despite my diet , I know a square a day is good for my heart & mind. The problem is sticking to 1 square only it’s so good.
3. Sweet and savoury mix I just had to try it – so much like the salted caramel idea!
Yum all round it was
I bought myself two 2 minute packets of soft chow noodles. They were divine!
Werther’s Original toffees – they are a classic reminder of my great grandmother as such a sweet woman she was!
Oh yum!
The last snack I bought were bags of Lindt Lindor eggs from a shop in Melbourne.
Why? Well that’s self explanatory really but also they were a bargain!
The last snack I bought was a red tulip chocolate easter egg for my mum to say sorry for being a typical bitchy teenage daughter! Haha.
I have treats coming from The Chocolate Box in melbourne. For a quote I posted and created ~ “Pure Chocolate induces a chain reaction of smiles!” I have a small fetish for raspberry’s and white chocolate. I love caramels too.
My petrol station provides service so I don’t get the chance to go inside. Don’t think they sell ice-creams,anyway.
My last snack was a drumstick and I thoroughly enjoyed it
i love chocolate and my last snack was a whitakers peanut slab bar…i love them
A box of Weight Watchers Rich Toffee Bars as a treat which was sort of heavily counteracted by the plate of hot chips I had in the food court.
A packet of Malteser because it had been ages since I’d had some and the bright red packet was just screaming my name
.
They sound great!! The last snack I bought was last night at the servo. I couldn’t go past a block of good old Cadbury dairymilk!
My last snack was actually a Magnum Dark – OMG Yum!! Can’t wait to try the new flavours
The last snack i bought was just yesterday when I was facing the afternoon energy crash. I went to the local specialty lolly shop on the pretense of searching for mints for a work collegue. No mints, well the UK brand she was craving anyway, but i did bring myself back a yummy ginger covered in dark chocolate candy bar. Perfect with the afternoon coffee.
Last snack I bought was those Italian cake bars, 8 pack, individually wrapped. They were half price, as if I could resist.
the last snack I bought was today @ the melbourne flower show- grilled corn with melted butter coz its kind of healthy compared to the rest!
The last snack I bought was a block of dark chocolate for my husband and I to share after our little girl went to bed. Delicious!We like to tell ourselves its a healthy snack because its dark chocolate.
Frozen yoghurt in a waffle cone. I feel the ‘badness’ of the waffle cone negates any ‘goodness’ the frozen yoghurt might have had (well, compared to, you know, Belgian dark chocolate gelato or something similarly decadent and delicious) but it was yummy! And worth it. Mmmm frozen happiness.
Bought box of Cadbury Favourites since friends were coming over. Always a good selection and we end up fighting over our favourite chocolate and end up with Turkish Delights that no one will eat!
oooh. The very thought of sinking my teeth into that DELICIOUS earth shattering crackling chocolate outside, revealing that soft, ooey gooey caramelly surprise centre well, just makes me
c:
The last snack I bought was today – was doing some grocery shopping, and found myself in the pancake aisle. Hadn’t had pancakes in AAAGES, so since they were on special – decided to sneak in 2 bottles of maple syrup and honeycomb flavoured pancake mixes in my trolley (plus a bottle of yummy oozey maple syrup!
divine!
yum
!
The last snack I bought was a latte and a hot cross bun from the bakery near my house. I walked past and then couldn’t resist the smell – they were freshly baked.
Salt and Vinegar chips so I could shrink the packet in the oven to make a bag tag for my sons School bag:D
They sound delicious!!! I rarely buy snacks out (always have a good stash in my bag) but the last I bought was a chocolate paddle pop. An old favourite!
Oh i cant help myself when we goto the chocolate aisle
Last thing i bought and my overall favourite would have been a twirl such yummy chocolate!
the last snack i bought was cheetos!!! nothing better than a cheesy-bacon hit!
Love chocolate. Love caramel. LOVE Magnums. All together? OMG. A match made in heavean. The last snack I bought was a tin of coconut cream covered peanuts (which must have been fried). So delicious…
Irony?? The last snack bought were Magnum Classics. Tradition in our household that when we go away I sneak off and buy other half a Magnum, as he doesn’t get these at home(along with lots of other treats). After lots of years he is kind enough to not tell me it is not much of a surprise. Gotta love it. He always likes to surprise me with accomodation that includes a bath or spa for me to indulge in. Would seem only fitting that if i was fortunate enough to win a Magnum pack that doesn’t add calories, we could both decadently indulge ourselves next time we go away.
a twix bar this morning for morning tea i was peckish and it was on special so it just grabbed it and scoffed
Sounds delish! the last snack(s) I bought were 3 warm cinnamon donuts. I had intended on sharing with my husband but I am breastfeeding and as such always ravenous and consequently they were gobbled before he even knew they existed!
Yuuuum I love Magnums, and surprisingly Aldi does a pretty good rip off version of them in a mini size, but I still prefer the real thing and full size!
The last snack I bought was some salt and vinegar chips in a fit of stress-induced salt-cravings while writing uni essays last weekend…
I bought Pringles. Apart from being extremely more-ish i also realised the can would be perfect once emptied and decorated for holding my collection of jumbo pencils.
I’m 32 weeks pregnant and I have a guilty secret…I like Heinz baby custards in a jar! So the last custard snack I bought was vanilla flavoured. I tell myself it’s for Baby! Now Baby and I really want to head to a servo to buy a Magnum!
I’m a sucker for trying new things so the last snack I brought was the new boost Carmel
Peanut butter Lindt balls – because they’re so good I want to marry them and they tend to disappear from the shelves for years at a time…
Averted my eyes from Adriano Zumbo’s window, and then found myself along the street buying a Gelato. Beautiful double shot coffee flavoured. It was such a lovely sunny Sydney day, was my excuse!
I had a packet of Mexican flavoured corn chips, in bed … .. woke up in a bed of crumbs.
If I win, I’ll have a very excited daughter , she loves Magnums !!!
Met up with my friend for a coffee and chinwag on Friday. Just felt like something sweet to have with my cappuccino, so couldn’t go past the raspberry friand. That’s not too naughty is it Lorraine??
OMG, made your Thai basil,Chicken and Cashew stir fry tonight….Amazzzzing! I have a rice cooker so after washing the rice thrice, I added a can of coconut milk and made up the difference with water and voila’ ….perfect coconut rice.
The last snack I purchased was a packet of red frogs. Realistically, the bag they came in had more nutritional value. However, in my defence I had just run for 3 hours so I think I can justify some empty kilojoules. And a Magnum!
Clinkers of course!
Hubby and I are both terribly addicted to Clinkers and it’s always the first snack we grab, and yes it was the last one we had!
I recently found some Twisties for sale at my local supermarket (in Perth) that were the flavours “BBQ Curry, Dude” and “Duh, Tomato”. I couldn’t resist buying something with such funny names and luckily it paid off as they were rather tasty.
Ok, I’ll admit it. I snuck in the drive through at Macca’s and got a 30 cent ice cream cone. A Magnum would have been nicer.
Drat! I love chocolate and caramel! Wish these were in Canada!
Last snack I bought was forme yoghurt, knowing it would not only satisfy me, but I would feel guilty about it (I’m trying to make healthier choices
I went to mado today and bought pomegranate ice cream!
to mend my daughters broken heart I bought the biggest tub of ice cream Baskin n Robbins has to offer, filled with everything goooey, creamy, crunchy. It was ever so wicked but it did put a big smile on her face and mine.
Last snack I bought was an apple to eat on my way home from the gym this morning!
I just bought the largest jar of jelly belly jelly beans ever! I was at ostco and they were there and so cheap. And I have to admit that place may mean the red mist of shopping comes over me and I lose my head. Nom, Nom, Nom.
I brought a packet of Fantales ate the whole lot then squashed them into little balls so I could throw them at my sisters head!
The last snack I bought was in Fiji last week I was at the South Pacific Food and Wine Festival at Nandi and there was a local Fijian man selling homemade ginger ice-cream, it was cool and refreshing with a hint of heat from the ginger yummo
mmm magnum im eating the almond one as i type! the last snack i bought was camebert cheese for deep frying!
the last snack i bought was a cheesecake slice from MP. not the best but cravings satisfied!
mmm snacks, i just went snack shopping, which one should i name? my fav? shapes from woolies!
the last snack i bought was a 6pk dried sultanas and apples.
What a wonderful prize!! This morning I bought a cranberry and blueberry muffin and husband got a Hot Cross Muffin, full of lovely fruit. He gave me half his muffin and it was definitely better than my low fat muffin. It was like a Easter Bun but in a muffin.
i am such a bad bad snacker! it ruins my main meals half the time! the last snack i bought was salt and vinegar red rock deli chips. ~yum
The last snack I indulged in was dumplings(?) filled with red bean paste. I discovered them in Beijing and am very pleased to continue the addiction here.
Those gifts sound delightful.
I find it hard to buy treats, but I actually bought one on Thursday. It was a Fry’s dark chocolate/orange bar, because it was marked down. I’m really glad that I tried it – perfectly balanced flavours – sweet but not overly so, and crunchy with the gooeyness of the filling… such an enjoyable few bites
some gelato from bar italia!
Greetings to all the lovely bloggers,i missed all of you !
Yum! Magnums are so good.
The last snack I bought was at work last week, it was a small block of lindt chocolate. Couldn’t ignore the chocolate cravings!
I just love pringles, love the shape, love the tube, love the fact I can kid myself that I can keep them in the cupboard for ages because they have a plastic resealable lid – never make it past about three blocks from servo!!
Always Chocolate – I have a One ‘Snack’ Mind!
Like my dad I love Smiths salt and vinegar… I guess I’m a ‘Chip’ off the old block!
Kettle corn from the Farmers Markets for my 5 year old. She ended up having to fight me for it as it was so delish. Sweet and salty at the same time.
The last snack I bought was a white magnum, because I am a lover of white chocolate and I felt like a treat.
I bought some lindt chocolate. I was in serious need of a chocolate fix!!
Coles petrol station best buy ever a bought Coles™ mini chocolate treat bags Chocolate Wafer Breaks. Just like a Kit-Kat but better. Try them!
I always keep a couple of bags of jelly types lollies in the car to top up my sugar levels on the way home from work. So jelly snakes were the last snack I bought (yesterday)
The last snack I bought and am munching on as I write is a packet of BBQ Pringles. Unfortunately just like the slogan “Once you pop, you can’t stop” is ringing very true right at this moment lol
The last snack I bought was decadent dark choc covered orange peel… The ultimate in indulgence … No sharing here…
My last snack was a packet of the small Cadbury easter eggs..
I bought a packet of green frogs last week! But I’d rather have one of those delicious looking Magnums.
Didn’t realize there were so many different types of Magnums. Yes Infinity Caramel swirl was yum. Sounds like the rest of the comment posters won’t need much encouragement to try old and new favorite ‘snacks’ mentioned.
If Sydney had experienced a warmer summer, I would have had more opportunity to try my other ice-cream preference – the Splice – pine/lime.
Last snack I bought was some coconut bubble tea. I get cravings, not for the flavour, but for the texture of those deliciously chewy tapioca pearls.
I’d be in 7th heaven with the New Magnum
Green Tea KitKat – made me happy on so many levels. Light, not too sweet – but very satisfying.
The last snack I brought was Wasabi Peas. I love the killer crunch and the tingling sensation on my tongue from the Wasabi.
I brought a museli snack bar when we went to get the morning coffees. I figure even though I was craving an ice cream after reading the above, 8.40am is just too early!
The last snack I bought was a rocky road choc top at the movies, despite having just had tapas. The marshmallow was an interesting texture and really added to the ice cream. I’m a traditionalist though – the original magnum is my all time favourite! And although not bought, my boss has just given me a huge bag of buttermilk rusks she made so I’ll be having one (or two) with my coffee this morning.
It would have been chocolate to share with my grandson, however when the weather is hot my personal indulgence is Magnum!
The last snack I bought was some chocolate easter eggs! Hard to avoid them in the shops at this time of year
Mini, bite-sized tiramisu wafers. They are so fragrant and perfect for snacking on.
Well, I’m pregnant so snack has become something that in the past I would’ve called a meal
, but at 10am yesterday all baby and I wanted was a falafel kebab with tabouli and hommus and sweet chilli sauce… fortunately it was a handy pick up as we were doing the groceries at the time and there’s a kebab shop next door! I won’t share what meals have become!
Love Magnums! Will definitely be keeping my eye out for one of these.
My last snack was a macadamia and white choc cookie – mostly because I had somehow convinced myself that it was better for me than the caramelly, nutty, chocolaty slice that was calling my name.
Being very close to Easter we have the Cadbury Fundrasier Eggs in the office…everyday someone buys a packet and we share them amongst the team. It fills the 3pm food carvings and we are fundarising at the same time
Last snack I bought….honestly? Killer python – love them!
Mmm, snacks! I’m lucky enough to work near an excellent cafe which provides daily temptations, the most recent being a rich chocolate brownie, oozing with chocolate bits and dusted in cocoa (as if there wasn’t enough chocolate already!)- how could I resist?
Hi Lorraine, The last snack I bought was a potato cake. I prefer the ones that have been sitting in a warmer for at least an hour as this ensures the potato is soft. Great on a cold day, warm and soft on the inside with a crispy outer layer, lightly sprinkled with salt
My last snack / treat I bought was popcorn and maltesers at the movies. Mmmm, sugar and salt together again!
Latest naughty treat was a rhubarb tart from Bourke st bakery and a loaf of fig & cranberry bread. The tart survived until tea-time, but I demolished half the loaf of bread while driving home by picking ta it! Yum.
My husband and I love going away and we always stop at the petrol station at the beginning of the trip to fill up (or not) and grab a large packet of Redrock lightly salted chips and/or Chilli Kettle Chips (both crunchy and moorish) and bottles of water to go with it. Even though we are not hungry, it seems to make our trip shorter and more enjoyable.
A packet of BBQ chips… it’s always my go-to snack!
White chocolate magnum because they’re delish.
A Crunchy choclate egg with chocolate bars for an early Easter present!
I have a new snack I want to record: a custard tart from a bakery near my parents’ house. I’d had a craving for custard tarts for the past two weeks, and the ones from that bakery are my favourite because they taste like my childhood.
A packet of Hot Cross Buns. I am obsessed with them, so Easter is naturally my favourite time of year. I love them warm with melted butter on top!
Thanks for another great competition!
The last snack I bought was a punnet of strawberries for my kids playgroup morning tea.
Yep, I’m a petrol station binger, and yes, yesterday i had to have a Magnun.. Magnums are the best but how about bringing out a licorise one with white choc..oh my God, how good would that be.
my last snack was a hot cross bun.
My first of the season.
Last night my husband and I bought ourselves some delicious macaroons…mmmm
Magnum Gold, it looked so regal in the service station fridge and the thought of honeycomb, well, I was hooked. I just adore dark chocolate and usually opt for the Ecuador but the gold colour was such an enticement and I am always willing to try a new flavour. Cracking the layer of gold to find a layer of chocolate underneath with swirls of honeycomb, oh yummmmm
Several Malteser Bunnies – heavenly!
BBQ Pringles! Yum!!
I am currently addicted to Piranha Cashew Multigrain & Soy Snack mix – because they are light, salty and crunch satisfyingly in the mouth!
My last snack was a golden gaytime, absalutly love them. When we go on holidays or long drive thats my servo treat.
I am eating it now! – a PICNIC bar, my favourite for at least the last 20 years.
My last snack purchased was a dark chocolate Lindt bunny. I had eaten it’s head before I even got home!
Yum. Last snack I bought was a packet of salt and vinegar chips – necessary study fuel.
One night last week my boyfriend and I found ourselves in a service station at Wollongong gazing at the icecream fridge…Because I was trying to make the healthiest choice possible I got the Skinny Cow sundae, which was yum by the way, but unfortunately paled in comparison to my boyfriend’s almond Magnum. Fail – and he wouldn’t share cos he thought it served me right
just bought a small packet of salt and vinegar chips!
Bought a packet of fun size Twix. Felt like something sweet and needed something to satisfy my chocolate cravings. It did the trick!
Tried apple chips for the first time ever this week. Absolutely loved it.
the last snack i bought was chocolate hot cross buns – cross my heart, i hope i live (for many more hot cross buns years to come!)
Just yesterday,
My tummy rumbled,
I smacked my lips,
And my thighs grumbled,
At the right aisle,
I reached out to take,
A Lindt Chocolate Bar,
a great snack it would make,
Orange intense,
So tangy, so sweet,
Melts in your mouth,
Made my senses leap!
But what would be better,
Than winning your gift pack?
I thought and I thought,
“Why nothing, in fact!”
Food and massage?
Chocolate and caramel?
A match made in heaven,
and have it I shall!
well…
please? haha!
Lindt dark chocolate! Just getting in the Easter mood.
last snack was triple smoked ham – i craved the saltiness and smeared some vegemite and topped it off with tasty cheese for a savoury toasted sandwich snack!
Magnum almond ice cream!
Mixed berry ice cream! It was a hot day and it was enough reason for me to indulge.
last nights snack was some Maggie Beer Burnt Fig, Honeycomb and Caramel Ice Cream – because it’s one of my favourite flavours and I was feeling like a sweet treat. (wow – just realised my last snack in my last post was Maggie Beer as well!)
Pizza Shapes! I just felt like something savoury.
A chocolate and macadamia cookie from the vending machine at work, because it probably had more nutritional value than option #2, a choc chip cookie.
Last snack – a sausage roll from the local French patisserie. Living practically next door to a patisserie does have its perks!
Berry yogurt. Just trying to be healthy.
Delicious Hot Cross Buns, because it’s Easter!
I last bought the Magnum almond I’ve cream bar because come on, almonds, chocolate and ice cream? There couldn’t be a better combination!
Wanted a little treat but didn’t feel like eating. Solution: small bottle of cloudy apple juice.
The tempting list continues – after Easter feasting, will need much will power to avoid small pack twisties – too much yellow gunk on finger tips!
I Got the Ego Caramel!
cracking chocolate cased by thick caramel sauce. Its almost forbidden!
I bought some Chai-infused hot cross buns at our local markets on the weekend. They were totally delish – the buns were soft as cloud when you bit into them. Being a Chai lover I think you’ll really enjoy them Lorraine
.
They would be fairly easy to replicate at home by making a few changes to your standard hot cross bun recipe. I’m thinking of either finely griding my chai tea mix, infuse it in milk overnight and adding to the batter, or adding chai latte powder to the batter. The latter will produce a more Asian-style bun, as many soft Asian-style breads have milk powder added to them.
Smelled doughnuts cooking when I parked the car this morning, so I had to get a couple.
Oh, I miss snacks!!! I’m on the paleolithic diet, so the only thing I’m allowed to snack on is raw nuts.
This morning I bought a fruit smoothie as a snack because I didnt have time to have breakfast and wanted something I could have while on the move.
I bought a chocolate and peanut butter ice-cream…it was worth breaking my diet for!
I have been sticking to my diet with military precision,now so asamed of myself, could not bypass half price caramel easter eggs
I bought a Caramel Creme Egg yesterday because they were marked right down and I haven’t tried them before.
I brought a block of chocolate as I didn’t receive any Easter eggs. And I didn’t want to sneak a mouthful of my sons Easter eggs.
ahaha The last snack i bought was some weird Beef Jerkey stick. I saw it at the register and was like “Oooooh this is so American!”. It was quite salty, but i felt like a bit of a departure from my regular Cherry Ripe
Gosh, when don’t I buy snacks?! The last snack I ate was a packet of Grain Waves. I am addicted to them! Thanks for another great competition! Xo
Last night snack was Darrell lea dark choc nougat egg as it was half price! Love after Easter choc sales!!
A tub of chocolate icecream and ate it all
A packet of FruChocs. Yum!
Went to buy petrol today and Easter eggs were marked down…well I could resist could I? I cleaned the station out, and now have 30 bunnies sitting in the cupboard waiting to be devoured over the next few weeks. Yum!
I lost my favourite watch on the weekend
so to drown myself in sorrow I decided to eat the Tiramisu-flavoured Kit Kat a friend brought me from Japan. It was amazing! The coffee flavour was subtle and it just worked very nicely with the wafer. Don’t you just love all the awesome (and not necessarily awesome but crazy) Kit Kat flavours in Japan?
A box of Cheezels but they were for my son, I swear. He loves wearing ‘cheezel rings’ on his fingers. OK, I may have a couple
22 weeks pregnant and I’ve been craving some rocky road. I bought myself a rocky road easter egg from Darrell Lea … I’m eating some of it right now …
A packet of Bush spices Snack Macs, Amazing Byron Bay Macadamias with great natives spices. Amazing!!!!
The last snack I bought was a block af lindt dark chocolate and sea salt, it is my most favourite treat
I LOVE ANYTHING CHOCOLATE AND RECENTLY BROUGHT LINDT MINI MINT BALLS IN DARK CHOCOLATE.
A pack of malteasers today!
Muesli bars- as snacks for when we visited Underwater World yesterday
While my husband is away and the bAby is asleep I enjoy a delicious treat of a dark chocolate block. It’s healthy ecause it’s dark chocolate right?
the snack i craved was raisin toast..nothing more satisfying..yum
A delish mini portugese tart I really need a recipe to learn how to cook these scrummy treats.
Bananas, because I was trying to be healthy.
I bought a pie at a local bakery because my friend is keen on the girl who works there and I wanted to check her out..the girl was good, the pie not so much!! LOL
A Sultana tea cake was an appropriate snack to take for my women’s group for morning tea!
I’m travelling in the USA at the moment so the last snack I bought was a box of Reese’s peanut butter pieces
yumm
Greek Olive Bread from an artisian bakery to accompany a bottle of champage.
Kit Kat – because one of the lowest calories for a chocolate
I’ve been waiting and waiting for these new magnums and last night i couldn’t take it anymore so i drove to the shops to buy a box of the infinity chocolate & caramel (only to find in todays paper that i could have saved $3 if i had of waited a few more hours as they were on sale this weekend at Coles). But i must say i was pretty disappointed as a whole, they make it out to look like it’s actual caramel (eg: the Ego) not the tiny swirls of caramel ice cream. I though they hit the spot with the Big Choc Bikkie & the Chocolate Temptation but i feel they’ve lost their way and taken two steps back with this one. So in saying that i wont be using the Infinity again to feed my chocoholic addiction.
The last snack I bought was a packet of Allen’s red frogs..I was 10hrs into a 14hr shift at work last night and need some sugar to get through the last few hours!
The last snack I bought was chocolate, specifically the new Kit Kat 3. I am 38 weeks pregnant so any sort of chocolate is an indulgence! It’s also the only vice I’m allowed right now hehehe
I feel exactly the same about magnums. Which is what I last bought as a snack. I have a 24hour service station across the road from me so it was a 2230 raid for a magnum choc biscuit which are my favourite. Yum!
magnum almond ice cream! yummy!
Popped into Brunetti’s off Lygon Street and bought a Bigne San Giuseppe, a fried doughnut liberally sprinkled with cinnamon and crunchy sugar and filled with the palest yellow chantilly cream. Mmmm, so rich. Their cakes are heaven!
A bag of mini Easter eggs – I don’t know what it is about those little balls of chocolate but I LOVE them…too much actually!
Salt & Vinegar chips were my last snack,
I’m an addict and they’re my crack.
Sometimes I just need a hit,
They’re an addiction I’ll never quit!
Icecreams- we were at Australia Zoo today and it was hot!
Recently bought a bag of taro chips as a healthy alternative. Surprisingly delicious!
Well actually my recent “snack purchase” was really more a meal, after arriving home from a meeting at work and being dismissed (Just after I’d been signed on for an apprenticeship too)
.. I decided to splash out with the last of my pay and buy some Jackman and Mcross olive bread and some king Island Brie followed by a glass of red wine.
I’ve decided to go back to Tafe now and complete commercial cookery cert III so I’m more qualified and can find a better job
I bought a bag of Hokkaido milk candy – those soft chewy melt-in-your-mouth type. Reminds me of my days living in Japan. Except in Japan you could get the ‘low calorie’ version! =D
I brought rolo ice-cream because I’ve been dying to try them.. too back I was so excited I dropped half of it on the floor!
today a small packet of m&m’s!
The last snack I bought was a packet of Cadbury’s Marshamallow Eggs. Lucky for me that they’re not that popular and there are always plenty to be had at half price after Easter!
A Big Mac because I was on a road trip, I was hungry, it was there, and I’m skinny so I didn’t care.
Last snack was the icecreams I bought the kids at Australia Zoo yesterday, I haven’t been to a shop since!
I was up in Sydney on the weekend and bought a grilled sticky rice with taro, wrapped in a banana leaf, from one of the Thai grocery stores on Campbell Street.
It was all because I went to Chat Thai and had the best grilled pork shoulder with smoked chilli and tamarind relish
The relish was so moreish I had to go to the Thai grocer next door and buy the ingredients so I could make it at home. I chatted to a lovely Thai lady who was shopping there. She was excited that I had an interest in Thai cooking and suggested I try the sticky rice taro snack. And boy I am glad I did! :>
I bought a Kinder Egg for my son, basically as a bribe to behave himself in the supermarket!
The last snack I bought was a bar of Club chocolate which at the time I had a craving for and I did not have the kids with me to bug me for something which was heaven in itself. I absolutely love the almond Magnum.
i had a stroke and ever since i crave sweets ilove the magnums the one with coffee in it yum its all good
Buttery, crunchy, roasted and salted macadamia nuts. Low GI, good fats – what’s not to love?
Last snack I bought was an aero bar, I had gestational diabeties & couldnt have any sweet snacks for ages & have since just had my baby & now that I can move around freely again I offered to do the shopping alone so I could grab a guilty pleasure
The last snack I purchased just aol happened to be a magnig caramel icwcream. We were starving on way back from townsville after seeing the specialiast so we pulled into a servo and after looking at the hot food we quickly chose not to eat it so we went to the frisge.and chose something safer, although we had never had that flavor we dove in being how hungry we were. Mmmmm mmmmm. It was mighty fine
I bought a home made hot cross bun. We we’re taking a drive for Eater to visit the family when i saw a sign at a residential property saying hot cross buns for sale. It was unusual so i stopped and drove up to the house, there was an old woman standing outside ready with hot cross buns it was surreal, and i’m telling you it was the best hot cross bun i’ve ever tasted in my life, absolutely delicious.
I’m a bake your snacks at home kind of girl. I’ve recently become obsessed with the Donna Hay dessert mixes. They are to die for! Especially the chocolate cupcakes.
I bought a packet of seaweed and macadamia nuts from my local gourmet food store yesterday. I was thrilled to discover them there as I’d only been able to find them at the farmers’ market previously.
They are extremely good – the wasabi flavour is bold but not overpowering on the palate, and the little pieces of seaweed flakes just hit the spot for a seaweed lover like me
I wonder if you could replicate them at home by coating macadamia nuts in wasabi paste/powder mixed with a bit of soy. Then roll them in seaweed flakes and toaste in the oven?
I bought a Cheese and Chillu Scroll from Baker’s Delight, because it was 2:30pm and I hadn’t eaten that day. I was starving!
After seeing the list of cookies on your Charlie’s cookies post, I couldn’t help but went and bought a giant cookie from the cafe outside my work. They bake their cookies fresh everyday. There are only three flavours – all chocolate chip, milk, dark and white. Big FAT cookies with giant chucks of chocolate. Because of the thickness the centre is very moist. I used to get the white chocolate one, but over the years I’ve moved to the dark side – funny how your taste changes with age.
A warm piece of fruit toast. The soft raisins and cinnamon flavours taste wonful when toasted and smothered with a slob of margarine!
The last snack I bought was a Raspberry Ripe Boost! It was absolutely delicious and gave me the chocolate hit I was desiring without making me feel to naughty!
The snack I last bought was the Arnotts showbag from the Sydney Royal Easter show – I have just finished off a (well, actually 3!!) scotch finger biscuts with a cappacino…YUM!
I last bought a ‘giant python’ as they were a childhood treat of mine whenever I went to my local pool I had to have one & simply couldn’t resist when I seen these on a shop counter. I will now be going back more often.
I bought a hazelnut macaron with my coffee this morning. OK, I agree with many people that macarons are a bit overrated. But I fell for it again.
I remember my friend and I were sitting in a cafe one Saturday evening and two dressed-up girls pointed at the macaron jar on the counter and said:”let’s share a ‘macaROON’”…
I just bought a cheeseburger because I met some Kindy Mums at McDonalds so our sons could play together.
4 packs of jelly bellies and a box of delicious magnums.
Just missed the bus tonight so bought a Caramel Boost to snack on. It was awesome
yogurts for my kids lunches!
I bought an Eccles cake because it reminds me of England, my home country!!
Have been wanting to try these
I bought a chocolate donut, because I really, really like them.
6 pack of cinnamon donuts. they’re on special at coles and delicious warmed up – i couldnt walk past them!
herseys peanutbutter cups i had to try them i can never have them again or my skinny jeans wont be skiny for long. what bliss!
A Kitkat is the perfect on the road snack. Great for sharing too… not that I like to do that often!!
pringles and they were yummy..
They were selling various sweets at work to fundraise for charity today. I bought a custard tart. It was a homemade one, with a wobbly centre, and cinnamon sprinkled on top. The pastry is nice and short. These are good calries because they are for charity right?
COFFEE MILK!
thank you for this by the way!
The yoghurts I bought for my kids
today a magnum infinity, not quite as good as i expected it to be though!
Hi! I’m back, bought another coffee milk.. @__@ that stuff isn’t even that great but it’s so addictive. And I think I have a thing for drinking out of milk cartons TT haha
A piece of Caramel Slice because I can’t resist. It’s my favourite treat!
My partner and I are on a sugar-free diet at the moment but I’m feeling very naughty and these prize packs look fantastic!
Had a humongous craving for dessert so I bought some ice cream and had it with some caramelized pineapple.
My last bought snack were tim tams, because I had a really strong craving for them.
Chips and dip for a party we had yesterday.
Pretzel and peanut butter flavoured M&Ms!

second fave, after picnics
A piece of Cherry Ripe Slice, to go with the Caramel Slice
The last snack I bought was Turkish delight,
From a servo to fulfill my sugar cravings at midnight.
Oh no not more temptation – powerless to resist ..Last snack I bought was some hot chips because I really felt like some and they totally hit the junk food required spot!!
Maltesers for the movies… Yum
chips and dip
Went back to that ridiculously decadent cake shop in Carlton and bought a Nutella Praline Slice which apparently is a chocolate orange cake layered with Nutella praline mousse, fresh cream and crushed hazelnuts, topped off with the cutest gold hazelnut nestled in a bed of cream. Mainly noticed the cream so wallowed in heart attack heaven.
Corn chips.
Nerd-covered jellybeans to eat during the movies. Best find ever (:
Don’t laugh, or judge me – the last snack I bought was a Dim Sim. Why? I’d lived overseas until recently and as Dim Sims are Australian, not Chinese, I couldn’t get them. Plus, they’re pretty tasty.
As I was feeling a bit Mexican, I walked at an ‘allegro’ pace into the supermarket and bought corn chips, salsa and sour cream for nachos. Really brought out the Mexican in me!
I have not bought a snack since my Greek mother-in-law turned up and has become my supplier of choice – baclava and the like.
I love magnums!! The icecream in theem are so much softer and more creamy than normal icecreams!! I <3 MAGNUMS
Mini msgnums are great cause I can share a packet with my friends, then we all get to go crazy.
Those french fry potato chips, they’re awseome, like a mini order of fries you can have anytime straight out of your pocket.
magnum any flavour is good
a bag of cheese twisties, love them could eat them all day long
I bought a white chocolate & cranberry hot cross bun because I love eating toasted hot cross buns spread with butter…yum!
Not sure why it’s still selling at the local supermarket since Easter was a couple of weeks ago, but I’m not complaining if it’s here to stay!
Double Choc Tim Tams, my partner is addicted to them, he doesn’t eat them he inhales them, Ive never seen anyone enjoy something soooo much, seriously he eats them within a blink of an eye. My weakness is most definitely Magnums however I have not tried the current ones on the market, they sound incredibly decedent. Fortunately for me, my partner likes his Tim Tams more than Magnums, this ensures that I actually get to eat one or two of these delectable treats.
mine was jelly snakes, I’m sure i’m addicted to them!
I bought a packet of Nacho Cheese Doritos to eat before starting my 10 Day Detox. And boy, were they good!
The last snack I did buy was a packet of Almond Finger Biscuits. Although they’re long gone now, the shops are only a stone throw away.
I just finished licking my fingers from the delicious toffee apple I just demolished
More yogurts for my boys
The last snack I bought was a Magnum Ego. Literally heaven in my mouth with every bite. Delicious!
yesterday morning i brought myself a “golden gaytime” really needed a boost and chocolate hit without feeling too guilty..
I last bought m&m’s. I needed a sugar hit and didn’t want to be greedy and they came in smallest packaging.
Just bought some discounted easter eggs because I need a little chocolate hit. Haha.
I bought a big fat MARS BAR on the way home from work yesterday, I was at the traffic lights and the man next to me in his car gave me the thumbs up when he saw me devouring it! I felt NO guilt whatsoever!!
The last snack I bought was a Splice Pine-Lime Icy-pole. It was a pretty hot day, and this just hits the spot!
I bought a heart and have had to walk too far but I enjoyed the indulgence
A scrummy yummy sausage roll from the local bakery that had long strips of onion in it and chunks of bacon with pasty that was so flakey my shirt ended up looking like I had dandruff all over it hehe.
Last snack was a magnum of course. Tasted so good I have no remorse
An apple a day keeps the Doctor away! Can’t beat a crunchy Granny Smith for a great snack
A chupa chup! I’m over 30 now and my kids feel quite spoilt when I give them one…I wanted to feel special too! LOL
My local supermarket has 75% Easter goodies, so how could I resist such a bargain, I won’t tell you what bought, its embarrasing
I bought a Tiramisu gelato because I thought it was one of the last opportunities to have gelati before the weather gets super cold in Canberra (we reached an effective temperature of -2 C errrr). The balance of flavours was great – you could really taste the liqueur and I suspect it had real mascarpone in it rather than just cream because the texture was just luscious!
During my 29 hour labour I indulged in a white magnum my partner snuck in for me from the hospital canteen..it certainly eased the pain for a while!
That chocolate and caramel one sounds Devine. Magnum is my all time favourite ice cream.
My last snack was a walnut and spinach dip with water crackers. Unfortunately my snack turned into lunch cause I ate too much of it hehe
it actually was an infinity icecream. it was about 10pm and the ad came on and my fiancé said they looked good, so I suggested we rush to the night owl right away to get one! it was delicious but I felt so bad because I had not eaten sugar in over a week!
As a goody two shoes (for a change!) it was 2 fresh dates. I needed something sweet but was trying to be good.
I bough 2 bags of Pascall Mallow Bites Chocs. One is Honeycomb and the other Vanilla. Just because I love marshmellows and chocolates and I had to try the combination together … They are yum!! If you start eating some, you just want to have more …
a packet of mixed seeds from the health food store as I was hungry but didn’t think sweet
– oh for a Magnum Infinity
My five year old daughter and I went to the bakery and got ourselves cupcakes with pink icing and a little darker pink rose on top. So delicious and sweet, the cake was light like a sponge and the icing always tastes better when it is pink.
Hi There,
I bought a curly wurly and breaky chocolate milk. I bought it because I deserve to have a treat, and it reminds me of my childhood
x
A packet of chicken twisties and a packet of tim-tams snack foods for finishing a uni essay!
I bought a packet of low-fat Fantastic rice crackers, because they are healthy and I’m trying to be good!
Being that time of the month approaching is the best excuse any female can say even when her big day is a few weeks away. I indulged in a small block of pure milk cabury chocolate. It wasnt any ice cream but it was the closest thing to it being at work and all
dare iced coffee
I bought a bunch of ingredients to make a snack – does it count? I couldn’t help after reading this on the NY Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/15/dining/15appe.html)
I love a good granola and could munch on it like there’s no tomorrow. And the salty sweet combination is genius – not to mention the subtle flavour of olive oil.
I bought a cadbury cherry ripe from my friend’s fundraising box. She’s raising money for the Fred Hollows foundation and I took the initiative to help her selflessness.
Yoghurts for my boys- haven’t been to the shop since!
A choctop to eat in the cinema (we were watching The Avengers). =)
An apple! borrrring
I bought yoghurts for my little boys- I have still managed to avoid the shops.
Chocolate Up and Go – love them!
A Chocolate Eclair,Tasty pastry,thrilling filling,
who cares if my thighs are filling.
My last snack purchase was a dark cherry ripe, i wanted something sweet and fruity but also something dark and indulgent
A packet of chips, this was a snack. For me Magnum’s aren’t a ‘snack’ but memorable moments of indulgence – a treat to be experienced (;
a block of chocolate! :0 Yummy but I’ve thought about it all day and I’m sure the whole thing wasn’t needed!
Monaco Bar -simply delish!
BBQ rice crackers… salty and/or crunchy snacks are my weakness!
I love your blog Lorraine! The last snack I purchased was Gundowring lime ice cream and it was heavenly! I love Gundowring ice cream but this was a new flavour to me. It’s very refreshing and the real lime rind adds a fabulous texture. It’s very moorish, I could eat it all day… if I was a millionaire. The price is worth it as a special treat but it’s hard to go back to supermarket ice cream now. I love their honey and walnut in winter and their raspberry flavour is to die for.
Cheezles… first I chew of the out side (all the flavour) and the crunch through the rest…
chips! saltndvinegar yum
2 packets of M&M’s – one plain and one crispy – then I mix them together.
Turkish Delight…my little bite of indulgence while trying to lose weight!
A Crunchie
I didn’t have them for years, but I found out they were gluten free so I could eat them, so many chocolate bars I can’t have!
A Haighs chocolate frog in Dark AND Mint, … ok so it WAS two, but how could I choose?!!!
Peanut Butter Cupcakes with a Honey Chocolate Glaze. Wish I had some more right now!
I bought up big on Toblerone today as we came through the Duty Free section at the airport! It helps make the end of the holiday a bit more bearable….
Krispy Kreme doughnuts – nothing like a late night drive to a 24 hr krispy kreme to get a dozen glazed doughnuts.
With the economy in turmoil and unemployment levels rising in the Eurozone… Oops, I cant quite clear mind my mind from my uni essay.. Time for a snack and i have just bought Dairy Bell honey crunch ice cream!
Last snack I bought was a BANANA! I heard on TV that this miracle food is great for boosting concentration during study… I need all the help I can get!
Fingers crossed!
woolworths new range of fancy muffins – blackberry with cream cheese frosting, delish! loved every mouthful
A Banana Cake Pop because they were simply too gorgeous to resist! The proceeds also went to charity
Today with the weekly shop, I got sucked into an ice cream craving when I spotted the little one serve pots of Bulla ice cream on sale. Caramel fudge… Mmmm, I do live caramel!
Verdict? Craving filled. Flavor quite good, but lately my ice cream cravings have been satisfied at the gelato shop, so it can’t quite compete!
Whoops! Yes, I might live caramel, but did mean to write that I LOVE it instead
I bought a coconut truffle from Haighs because it was calling out to me. I felt guilty but it was so delicious!!!
I bought a Balinese Almond Magnum icecream. Love Magnums so just had to try one. Was on holiday and it was very hot. Not quite the same as Aussies Magnums but delicious all the same.
Marshmallows – as the weather turns cool they are an essential ingredient for a warming cup of hot chocolate!
Some porridge with blueberries thrown in,
Keeps my tummy happy within! Tastes great without the fat, Gotta be happy with that.
With having a new born, my energy levels are low. So I bought myself a block of Cadbury rocky road chocolate.

A Belgian Chocolate and Macadamia nut baked cookie as I’d just been swimming!

My boyfriend actually bought me a chocolate/Caramel magnum indulgence last night after! It was delish!!!
Last snack I bought was sweet and savoury popcorn because it satisfies my sugar and salt cravings all in one go!
Just bought a mini packet of red rock chilli chips to fulfill a craving.
Fruit- bananas, oranges and grapes, because we had run out!
Cadbury Block. I bought it as an Easter gift but didn’t see my friend so I kept it and ate it all. Shame on me
The last snack I brought was a fruit salad at a fruit shop, which I ate in the car on the way to work.
