Cybercandy Poptarts: Cookies and Creme

*WARNING: This post may make you feel hungry."
Recently I've been lucky enough to join the Cybercandy blogging family which means I've had the chance to taste some really delicious treats, including the frosted cookies & creme pop tarts. Being a big fan of cookie flavoured things, i was really excited to try these and i wasn't disappointed! I was actually pleasantly surprised with how creamy and tasty these were. A perfect breakfast treat in my opinion... (Or lunchtime treat, even dinnertime perhaps?)
I shared a packet with a friend a couple of days ago and asked for his opinion:- 
"They're scrumptalicious and choccywoccydoodah and creamaloony!"
In all seriousness, these are probably the best tasting poptarts I've tried so far. I definitely prefer the chocolate toaster pastries to the vanilla ones. Not to mention i was really impressed with the filling in these, they have a perfect combination of creamy and stickiness making the consistency just right. It does say on the packaging that they are a good source of vitamins and minerals too so guilt-free deliciousness! Wooohooo! 
I can't fault Cybercandy either, with they're friendly positive attitude and awesome packaging. I love the robots and the "nomnomnom's" on their delivery boxes and the cute free magazine is so retro and fun to flick through while your waiting for your poptarts to cook! Next on my list to try is definitely the white chocolate fudge flipz! Has anyone else tried them yet?
Have you ever tried Poptarts? What's your favourite flavour?

CyberCandy

Long time no blog! With the summer holidays, i really thought i'd have more time to spend working on my little space of internet, but unfortunately that just hasn't been the case! I have got loads lined up though, you can't get rid of me that easily! Today I just wanted to share with you an exciting (and delicious) delivery that i received last week from Cybercandy. 
So my blog is predominantly fashion and beauty related, but i really am i sucker for American treats, so when Cybercandy asked for blogger reviews, i jumped at the chance! Cybercandy are a British company that sell treats from around the world that are difficult to get hold of here in the UK. They have a handful of stores around the UK, but can be accessed online and i can't fault them in any way. Even the packaging is amazing!
In my box of goodies i received Vanilla Milkshake Poptarts, Watermelon Poprocks, Cookie dough bites in fudge brownie and peanut butter and Raspberry marshmallow fluff.. mmmmmm! They were all so tasty! I've got such a sweet tooth it's unreal. I've sent my reviews on over to the company so they should go up on the website in the near future if you're interested in having a look. I'd definitely recommend the cookie dough if you're a sucker for licking the spoon when baking! 
In other news, I went away last week for a tipi adventure holiday, and i'm still recovering! I'll be doing a short blog post about it soon, but my room and everything in it currently smells like campfire! I also got my A-Level results last week and was really pleased to achieve ABB in textiles, english and sociology. So i've managed to get into my first choice university and will be studying fashion buying at De Monfort in September 2013 - Thank you so much to everyone who congratulated me on twitter :)
Did anyone else get exam results? How did you do? What's your favourite treat on CyberCandy?

Wishlist: Penny Talk

1.2.3.4.5.6.7
1. My mum bought me a similar variation of this bracelet in a chrome-ish colour and i've found that i'm wearing it to death! With the recent rose-gold hype, i think this bracelet would go with anything! Badass.
2. I saw Jennie wearing a variation of this dress on her blog and i just thought it looked super flattering, great for everyday wear as well as dressing up a little. Sometimes the simplest of things can look the nicest!
3. After searching high and low for some new dresses to wear out to town, i stumbled across this on the missguided website and i just love the stud detailing! Not sure how well this would stay up though, it does look a little flimsy! Missguided prices tend to be so reasonable it's hard to resist splurging.
4. So, one of my random lusts this month are the White Fudge Flipz, i received an exciting box of goodies from cybercandy this week and now i pretty much want to try everything on their website! These look like they taste so delicious!
5. I'm pretty bad when it comes to biting my nails, but lately i've been really good and kept them in a really good condition.. which just gives me the excuse to buy more nail polish! I know the famous Essie polish is Mint Candy Apple, but i really love this colour which is "Penny Talk" I think it's a really wearable colour, but girly and feminine at the same time.
6. I really need a new fragrance seeing as my Loverdose recently ran out (sob sob!) but i loved the scent still, so my friend recommended blackXS by Paco Robanne which is similar because it's got that sweet, but musky smell to it, and it's much cheaper than splurging on Miss Dior Cherie! I wish.
7. Finally, i've been lusting after these adorable skull bracelets that are everywhere right now. Topshop do some pretty awesome ones, but i find that ebay is the place to go for cheaper variations and i love the pastel colours as they make them look more girly. 
What's on your wishlist? I'm going away on a Tipi Adventure holiday so things may be a little quieter around here for a while, i'll update you when i get home!
