Harry) http://harrysrockyroad.com.au/blog/?p=138 Introducing the latest addition to our range of flavours - Harry's Mocha Rocky Road.

 Harry's Mocha Rocky Road is a tempting mix of chewy Chocolate Jubes, Vanilla Marshmallows and crunchy Rice Crisps all coated in Milk Chocolate filled with ground Coffee Beans with Coffee Brown coloured White Chocolate Squiggles and Dark Chocolate Squiggles.

Four lucky Facebook Fans got to try our prototype of this flavour... Below is a sample of their feedback:

  • "Not too strong of a coffee taste, just the right balance."
  • "I was little worried when I saw it was mocha/coffee flavour as I'm not a coffee drinker! Pleasantly suprised that I not only liked the flavour, I actually really enjoyed it!"
  •  "Great flavour combinations, and the ground coffee adds an interesting texture."
  • "I have tried the fruit and nut and the peanut butter and the mocha was my favourite."

Make sure you try this one for yourself... If you have already tried it we would love to hear your thoughts!
