Review: Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme
April 7th, 2008In the interest of full-disclosure, I have to admit that I generally don’t like white chocolate. Since it doesn’t have any chocolate liquor nor cocoa solids, it’s not even really chocolate. On the flip side, I absolutely love Oreo cookies. They’re easily my favorite mass-produced cookie.
Before I try out a new product, I usually guess whether or not I’ll like it. Sometimes I’m surprised. Sometimes the candy bar is exactly as expected; both good and bad. With the Cookies n’ Cream, I earnestly didn’t know what to guess.
Structure
A solid, 12 segment molded bar of white chocolate with little balls of chocolate cookies mixed throughout.
Texture
The white chocolate is very soft; it’s almost not even like chocolate. There’s absolutely no snap when you bite in. Normally, this would be a deal breaker. However, I enjoyed the contrast between the crispy cookie bits and the soft chocolate.
Taste
Again, the white chocolate fails if you apply traditional chocolate rules. It’s very sugary and tastes like artificial vanilla. But, it kind of evokes an Oreo center. The cookie pieces do have some chocolate flavor, but they’re a bit overpowered by the white chocolate.
Verdict
The chocolate in this bar feels and tastes cheap. Any self-respecting chocolate connoisseur would probably thumb their nose at this product. But I’m going to go against traditional wisdom and recommend this product for those who like Oreo cookies. Though, if you’re looking to buy a product called “Cookies ‘n’ Cream”, I’d assume you already are and there’s a good chance you’ll also like this product.

I’ll have to disagree. Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Cream is my favorite chocolate of all time and I don’t feel like it is anything cheap.

there is a tempting chocolate bar this, but if you have not tried it, try this, bar cookies n ‘cream with vanilla ice cream, this is spectacular and if they are able to shred certain pieces of the bar on ice cream, you will know it is to eat something spectacularly rich.

I love this! Had it as a child but forgot about it for many years to discover it about a decade later.
Sadly we don’t buy it very much, as $2.80 for 43grams is not worth it.

But I agree, hershey has some very cheap choclate like “kisses”

I don’t like the Cookies ‘n Creme bars as much as the Hershey’s Milk Chocolate bars, but I still think it’s really good.
