Silly Coffee Flavoured Foods I have bought...

[Andy]

Coffee, I love it and although I know anything that makes a claim to be coffee flavoured will as best be "something sorta like a coffee flavour" I still find myself buying it "just to try".

Im sure YOU do this too so feel free to post your silly coffee food in this thread...

Silly Coffee Flavoured Foods I have bought #1

Yep, coffee flavoured peanuts. Contents showed 1% coffee powder, 1% coffee flavour but I still bought it expecting them to taste like coffee.

Even my 5 & 7 yo kids said "they are nice but dont taste much like coffee"

;D

I dunno andy - thats about the silliest coffee flavoured food Ive ever seen, how the hell are we supposed to top that?

Best I can do is some coffee flavoured cheese I once bought - was pretty bad.

Re: Silly Coffee Flavoured Foods I have bought...

Im sorry.... but I think coffee flavoured cheese IS WAY FUNNIER!!

Ive never been a great fan of coffee flavoured things. I think the only thing Ive bought was choc coated coffee beans (for someone else).

Re: Silly Coffee Flavoured Foods I have bought...

sigh... Im guilty of those too. The indo Kopi ones are reasonable but yes, only "sorta coffee".

Weak white instant with 3 sugars maybe similar.

Re: Silly Coffee Flavoured Foods I have bought...

These are Snows Assorted Confectionary. No mention of any coffee related ingredients. Although may contain nuts.

a weak white instant flavour with 3 sugars would have been nice :-)

Ill make you some of mine - or you can make your own. Just make a toffee mix with sugar and espresso instead of sugar and water. ;D

Tastes like turkish!

Re: Silly Coffee Flavoured Foods I have bought...

Ive always been partial to a glass of coke with a few drops of espresso coffee.

They already have much in common: colour, "crema" caffeine.

But the addition of coffee alters the coke texture, making it lighter, fizzier and the taste is superb. So is the bouquet. Roll on summer.

I was given a coffee scented candle- even had coffee beans through it. I dont think there was much coffee smell while it burnt but it sure smelled good when you put it out- a real sweet rich smell

One coffee-scented thing thats actually pretty cool is the coffee/chocolate Sonic Death Monkey shower gel from Lush:

Most of the stuff they use in their products is all-natural, and sure enough, it has real coffee in it . The smell of coffee isnt too strong, but its quite refreshing first thing in the morning, though perhaps not as much so as that first double espresso

Re: Silly Coffee Flavoured Foods I have bought...

hi all, not exactly food, but i have coffee incense. It smells like a blend of
sandlewood and espresso, not bad for covering the odd slip up.
