The Good: Very realistic dark chocolate flavor, Inexpensive, Protective canister is good, Addictive flavor, Protective bags inside the canister
The Bad: Very low on nutritional benefits, Could use a chocolate cookie coating for my tastes!
The Basics: Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls are a strong chocolate flavor that makes for a wonderful cookie!
The last few months, I have fallen back in love with wafer cookies and I've discovered the joy of wafer roll cookies. I have been very happy to try some new (to me) brands of cookies. Tonight, that takes the form of binging on Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls. I quickly fell in love with the Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls and discovered that it was to stop eating them, I enjoyed them so much!
Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls manage to have a realistic dark chocolate flavor for their filling, which appeals very much to a person like me who prefers dark chocolate to milk chocolate!
Basics
Creme de Pirouline is an American company and these cookies are baked in the United States (Mississippi). The Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls come in a metal canister that houses thirty-two cookies. Each cookie is a 4 3/4" long by 3/8" in diameter tube. The wafer cookies are kept well-protected by two inner packages and outside removing the first two to three cookies, the cookies seem to remain incredibly well-intact!
Ease Of Preparation
Eating Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls is not a real challenge, simply open the canister, pull out one of the two inner bags, remove a cookie from it and consume! Once one selects a cookie, all you have to do is stick it in your mouth and chew; there is nothing complicated to eating these cookies.
Taste
Opening the canister, the Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls smell reasonably chocolatey. The dark chocolate aroma is muted some by the cookie coating, but there is some scent to the Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls.
In the mouth, the Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls are dry and sweet. The sweetness of the dark chocolate frosting inside the cookie tube overcomes the crispy shell's dryness very quickly. The dark chocolate filling is robust enough to impress those who love dark chocolate; there is nothing weak about the chocolate flavor that insinuates that the chocolate is anything other than dark chocolate. The flavor is not like an oversweet milk chocolate, but the dark chocolate filling still is sweet enough to overcome the mundane, but crispy cookie coating.
The Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls leave a slightly dry aftertaste in the mouth, but the flavor is not unpleasant.
Nutrition
Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls are intended as a sweet snack, not a full meal. Two of these cookies (weighing 25 grams) represents a single serving and they are not at all nutritious. Made primarily of sugar, flour and vegetable oil, these cookies are not at all an all-natural food product. The Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls have an allergy disclaimer about soy, milk, and wheat!
Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls have 130 calories for a single serving, 45 of which are from fat. A full serving represents 13% of one's RDA of saturated fat, though they are cholesterol-free. The Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls are exceptionally low in sodium for a cookie, having only 30 mg (1% RDA) per serving. The Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls have a single gram of protein, but no other significant amounts of nutrients. As one who is working on getting heart-healthy, I wish they had been even a full gram of dietary fiber.
Storage/Cleanup
Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls are easy to care for and clean up. Unopened, they have a pretty decent shelf life. The canister we picked up last month had an expiration date of October 3, 2017. Kept sealed, I am sure they would have lasted at least that long. Instead, they were consumed well before then! As cookies, they can leave crumbs, but because the cookies are found in a metal canister, they have little breakage until one bites into them and generates crumbs then! The Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls have very little breakage because of there are two inner packs of the wafer roll cookies.
Overall
Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls could only be better if they had a chocolate cookie coating around the dark chocolate frosting center. But as they are, Creme de Pirouline Dark Chocolate Artisan Wafer Rolls are pretty wonderful!
