I remember someone mentioning this and I've just seen the advert now

Have many people tried it? Do you like it?

I wonder what yummy recipes can be used with it

    Hubby brought home some little pots as few weeks ago I live in Ireland and it was Philly mix with Cadburys Chocolate and yes its was fab I think it was 86 calories for a small pots and we had it on Pancakes and also on some sweet crackers with some fruit onto top. Less calories than standard chocolate spreads

    My other half spotted these the other day but didn't get them, I've been wondering about them ever since.... and at 86 cals a little pot, got to be worth a go :)

    It is really nice! I bought it pre diet and it didn't last long! You can buy tiny little pots of it in asda.

    I think it would be a great alternative to Nutella, which people seem to think is amazing and some how good for you.

    I think I'll make some mini cheesecakes as suggested

    Saw it in Asda on Friday, my flatmate wanted to try it out but I'm not sure. The sugar content is mad! Mixing in cocoa powder with plain philadelphia should get you the same sort of thing surely? Without the sugar... maybe that would just be weird? Haha!

    Right, I'm off to Asda. Sugar content or not, it'll fit with the diet (I had some hotel chocolat choc this week and still lost weight, so I put the same challenge to Dairy Milk Philadelphia!)

    I totally agree! Maybe mix in a little Stevia sweetener if you need it sweeter. But I wouldn't buy the ready made version. The sugar content is awful!

    OMG! That sounds like heaven!

    I bought the little pots to try it (and also as portion control :laugh:) and it's very nice, but it's not as delicious as Duo Penotti.

    It's Dutch chocolate hazelnut & vanilla spread and I :heart: it.

    It's great on Ryvita Fruit Crunch and it's also great with peanut butter (I love Waitrose Essential Wholenut Peanut Butter). I get two Crawford's arrowroot biscuits (similar to rich tea) and spread one with DP and the other with PB and make a sandwich. :tongue: :love:

    It's the prefect mid-afternoon snack (when I've been good and done some exercise :wink:)

    I found them, the little 4 packs or the usual size tub both just £1 in Asda. Had a 30g pot on toasted crumpets, tastes like chocolate cheesecake. Mmmm.

    Kraft knows their markets very well it seems cause here in Belgium they call it Philadelphia with Milka chocolate whereas the UK and Ireland they seem to say with Cadbury's - wonder which they use in the US- anyone there know?

    In the US it's called "Philadelphia Indulgences" and it comes in milk chocolate and dark chocolate.

    I bought some, but I actually don't love it like I thought I would. I put it on some Nilla wafers and it was good enough. I mean, there was nothing WRONG with it, but I probably won't get a chance to finish the package and I can't see myself buying it again.

    (No offence to American's but Hersheys* is just bleurgh)

    *The only type of American chocolate I have tasted. Don't shoot me
