Advantages: EASY
Disadvantages: NONE

...This is a really simple triffle:- You will need:- Plan swiss roll (not Chocolate) (Medium) Jelly – Any Flavour Tinned Peaches (standard) Tinned Pinapples (small) Double Cream Flake 1 Smarties 1 tube Chocolate Buttons – 1 bag Single Cream (large) Firstly you need to make your jelly and swive the Peaches and the pinapples so there is no juice in them. Then do the jelly, but don’t put as much water in the jelly otherwise it will not set with all the fruit – as the fruit holds some water that they are in when in the tin. Once this has been done, you then need to slice the swiss roll up and lay it at the bottom of your trifle bowl. Then once the jelly is set then scoop the jelly and loosen it up in the bowl, (this makes it easier to get out when serving) then put it onto of the swiss roll. Then mix your double cream up into it is thick... Read review

...Jaffa cake mini roll. At work when it's someone's birthday they usually bring in cake and goodies for the rest of the staff. Recently someone bought in some Jaffa cake mini rolls. These mini rolls come in a packet of 6. I believe you can also buy packets of 10 too . The individual Jaffa cake mini roll comes in a blue plastic foil wrapping to keep it fresh. The writing on the wrapper is in orange. I opened the wrapper 6 cakes and disclosed a mini Swiss roll all covered in chocolate. I bit into the dark chocolate; it was a good tasting chocolate. It was a very thin layer that cracked when I bit it. I lost a few crumbs of chocolate onto my lap. Inside the chocolate coating was the cake a very pale yellow cake. The cake was a light sponge tasted ok. This sponge cake was a Swiss roll type and the centre filling was that jaffa cake... Read review

Advantages: two favourites in one
Disadvantages: none its confectionery

...Some things are sacred, so some say if that is the case then perhaps McVities Jaffa Cake formula should come into this category. The humble yet highly emulated Jaffa cake has over its many years given countless joy to a similar quantity of consumers. Simple delicious so surely it must hold its place in sacredness. You'd think so the imitations are good but can in no way match the brilliance that is McVities, and it is such brilliance that has transformed the Jaffa cake to the next level. Another product which we have taken too it quite a similar way is the Swiss roll, it has in it's own right got a special place in out hearts, the clever boffins at McVities recognised this fact and have come up with a hybrid, a joining, a merging, a delight. So we are now in the enviable position of being able to buy Jaffa Cake Mini Rolls... Read review

Advantages: It's very chocolatey and it's another way of eating chocolate!
Disadvantages: It's very chocolatey and it's another way of eating chocolate!

...A chocolate sponge wrapped around a thick chocolate mousse and covered with rippled chocolate which is quite thick in parts (especially on the extreme ends of the roll) and looks exactly like a very chocolatey chocolate swiss roll. Choc'Roll comes in a box with a picture of the contents and Cadbury's Choc'Roll written in large letters over the top of the picture. It is wrapped in cellophane and sealed. The chocolate roll is around 10" in length x approx 3" in diameter (or roughly 30 cms long by 10 cms in diameter) For the sake of research I ripped opened the box and slid the roll out of it's sealed see-through cellophane packet. The chocolatey smell of chocolate pervaded my senses and coursed through my chocolate glands. Definitely Chocolate! I found that the roll could be cut into 8 average pieces at the most but the outer... Read review

Advantages: Yummy
Disadvantages: Never lasts very long before someone eats it

...Want to make an easy-peasy trifle-style pudding that takes minutes to make? This is a wonderful dessert for me as I don’t like cream or cold custard… give me hot custard any day but I can’t be doing with thick, jelly-like gunge that is cold! Many people who love the traditional style trifle love this recipe too! This dessert can be eaten within 10 minute of making or can last well in the fridge for about 36 hours although the sponge is soggier and has absorbed more liquid by this time (it’s still delicious though!). It sort of resembles a black forest gateaux in taste. *** INGREDIENTS *** 400g cherry pie filling 1 x small family chocolate Swiss roll with chocolate filling 1 packet of Raspberry Angel Delight ½ pint of milk (I prefer semi-skimmed but any will do) Decoration for the top if preferred (Chocolate buttons, crumbled...

Advantages: National carrier
Disadvantages: No variety

...I have flown by Swiss Air on six occasions (London to Zurich return) over the past nine years, but I will be using a different airline next time. On the flight out the co-pilot did not appear to know where he was, or even where he was flying. You could hear the pauses in his announcement as he desperately tried to find out from his colleagues on the flight deck. He also told us that you could see Paris below, before realising that in fact you couldn't because of the cloud. It was with relief that we landed at the correct destination after such confidence boosting commentary. The flight back was even more eventful, starting with the check in at our holiday resort. I asked for a seat by the exit - for the extra legroom - and I was assured that this was available and had been allocated. Imagine my shock when I got onto the plane and found... Read review

Advantages: Delicious, creamy great quality chocolate, mourish

Advantages: Very tasty and a nice inbetween meals snack
Disadvantages: Too moreish and you can polish off a pack without thinking

...I'm sitting here feeling very fat, trying up work up the energy to go and make some dinner. But the glossy purple packet next to my keyboard keeps drawing me back. They're laughing at me, teasing me of my weakness for a savoury snack, then lure me back with their chocolatey goodness... Cadbury Minirolls are something you probably love or hate. Me, I love them. And while I've managed for a number of years to bypass them on Safeway's shelves, thinking "well, they're a bit pricey considering how long they'll last", Costco have now started to stock them. And now I can get 2 x 10 packs for £2.49. There are alternatives, yes. I've tried the Safeway alternatives, and the mini swiss rolls (minus the chocolate coating) that may tempt you in the aisles, but they just aren't the same. These are made with Cadbury chocolate for a start, so you know... Read review

Advantages: Great party food
Disadvantages: Chocolate is too crumbly

...properly. The sticky Strawberry rolls are individually wrapped swiss rolls filled with succulent strawberry jam and a vanilla flavour filling, which has been covered in the famous Cadbury milk chocolate. The rolls themselves are round with a flat bottom, I suppose designed to stand on party plates and the cake has been rolled and filled with filling hence its name. The sponge is your typical plain sponge and is of very good quality ie does not taste of cardboard unlike some and the strawberry jam works well with it, the creamy vanilla is a bit like the cream you get in walnut whipps which is one way of describing it. The only flaw with mini rolls is that the Cadburys milk chocolate comes off far too easily when eating them, some appear to be crack on the packet and I seem to get half on the floor than in my mouth and if I say break a bit off...
