This 3 Musketeers Coconut was sent to me by American goods specialists, Yankee Pop and is a bar that I have always wanted to try being a big fan of coconut. This particular bar is actually from Canada and I've never actually tried the standard 3 Musketeers but I gather that it's the same as our UK Milky Way which not to be confused with the US Milky Way which is the same as our Mars Bar.
The wrapper describes the bar as whipped up, fluffy chocolate with a coconut taste. It weighs 42.2g and contains 180 calories and apparently 40% less fat than other leading chocolate brands. These are available from Yankee Pop for a very reasonable £1.09.
The 3 Musketeers Coconut is made of 2 smaller bars and l could smell the coconut as soon as l opened the wrapper. It was indeed just like a Milky Way with a light nougat filling but with the bonus of a gorgeous coconut flavor. It's not a massively strong coconut taste and the wrapper indicates that the flavouring is artificial but it doesn't taste overly "fake" at all in my opinion. There was certainly enough flavor to please this coconut fan and I think that the balance with the chocolate and the nougat is just right.
Verdict
The 3 Musketeers is one of my new favorite chocolate bars so a big thank you to Yankee Pop for sending it to me!
