00:00This is Ria. I'm at Costa in Derby trying the new Maple Hazelnut range.
00:10So I'm about to try the Maple Hazelnut Latte. It looks so pretty, let me show you.
00:21So that's got a light cream whip on it.
00:26I'm just going to go in. I love the texture on it, it's really good texturised milk.
00:38It's got chunks of butterscotch on it maybe, on top of the light cream whip.
00:46It's really really nice. It's a nice texture as well of the silken milk with the chewy chocolate butterscotch chunks.
00:57So I'm about to try the Maple Hazelnut Latte.
01:02I love the earthy notes of the maple coming through. I do love how it's a really autumnal flavour.
01:18It's sweet but not overly sweet. Really nice.
01:25So I'm in the middle of trying the Bacon, Brie and Chilli Champanini.
01:37I love how it's toasted. The sesame seeds on top, the way it's been grilled, the seeds have got a nice crunch to them.
01:46The flavour is quite nice. I like the juxtaposition of the smoky bacon and the sweet chilli jam.
01:58Now onto dessert. I'm having the Salted Caramel Cake.
02:03So I've had a couple of bitefuls of the Salted Caramel Chocolate Cake. I love how it's got two layers of chocolate buttercream.
02:21And I love how there's a really cute topping of salted caramel frosting covering the cake. Let me show you.
02:33So it's a chocolate sponge with two layers of chocolate buttercream.
02:40My favourite though is the salted caramel frosting with chunks of fudge in there.
02:48Overall, mouthful. When you put everything together, it's just really delicious.
02:55Going back to the cake, the Salted Caramel Chocolate Cake. On the face of it, it might appear to be too sweet.
03:04But it really isn't because the chocolate sponge is not overly sweet. I think it's more tempered with dark chocolate.
03:12So that along with the salted caramel frosting and the double layer of lightly sweetened chocolate buttercream and the light sponge, it's a delight to eat.
03:26But overall, trying the Costa Coffee New Range, I've really enjoyed it. I think the highlight has to be the salted caramel chocolate sponge.
03:37If you try any of the new range, I would love to know more.
