Chilli Chocolate

Ahhh…monday night, the clocks have gone back, the days are getting darker and it definitely getting colder..so what better way to warm up than with something hot and spicy! (no, not me!!)

Deadly Hot Chilli Cashew Nuts

At the Brighton FFUK I had the pleasure of acquiring several snack foods from my good friend Ged from “The chilli pepper company”, now in my mind, although snacks are a damn good thing to have, I don’t feel I can devote an entire review to just one of those snacks, so I rounded them all up and decided to review them all in one go, attributing a few lines to each product, that way you get something nice to read, and it gives you a fair idea of how these snacks taste, without further adieu, lets start eh?

Okay the first product is simply known as “Deadly hot chilli cashew nuts”, now I don’t know if you knew this readers, but the cashew nut is the seed of something known as the “Cashew apple”, the nut grows underneath the apple and in brazil (where the cashew tree grows) the apple is actually considered more of a delicacy then the nut itself! Now these particular cashew nuts come in a simple little 100g tub with a nice red and white label on the top that warns the consumer of the heat, and that they should not be consumed by anyone under 18!

I popped the lid and took a nice handful, popped them into my mouth and chewed heartily, I then ran to my fridge and pulled out my trusty milk and immediately glugged it down, for these cashew nuts are really f***ing HOT! A quick look at the website told me that these nuts do indeed have Naga powder on them and for that reason alone these are one of the hottest nut products on the market today, alot of “chilli nuts” are mild and don’t have the kick that their name implies, this is not the case with these cashew nuts!

At £2.00 for a 100g pot these certainly aren't the cheapest cashews around, but they are guaranteed to surprise your friends and family when they ask for one, try putting them in an empty bag of normal cashews for comedy effect!

The Chilefoundry Review By Darth Naga, October 30, 2009 12:07 pm

Next up we have two dif­fer­ent vari­et­ies of butter fudge, mmmm I love fudge! The two varieties that “The chilli pepper company” sell are “Hot and spicy Fudge” and “Ginger and chilli fudge” and both are equally delicious! They come in 150g clear plastic bags with gold foil lines on them, a black and red label with the title on them and the ingredients label on the base!

Both these fudge’s are literally to die for, I would say that out of this snack review these are definitely my second favourite thing (more on that soon), they literally melt in the mouth and they have a tiny bit of heat, the hot and spicy ones are a little hotter, but then with Ginger being one of the main ingredients of the other fudge that's kind of to be expected. Both fudges have a different chilli in them and for that reason they seem to be very unique, the “Ginger and chilli” fudges seems to be a very mouth warm­ing sen­sa­tion whereas the “Hot and spicy fudge” has a heat to it that hits the back of throat and a leaving little tickle, but to be honest its not about the heat for these fudge’s, its more about flavour and they both score very highly in that department and at only £1.95 for 150g its certainly cheaper than other quality fudge and satisfies totally in both heat and fla­vour, now you wouldn't get that in a normal fudge now would you?
