"Looks like nicely tempered chocolate."


"It does. It's got a great shine. And the spinning chocolate looks pretty good as well. It's quite neat."


"Delicious."


"It does taste good."


"You know, that's lovely, thin chocolate, isn't it? And that biscuit's really tender."


"I love the flavour of the mint."

"These look neat. There's a lot of mint. The flavour's nice. They blend together with the chocolate, the mint and the biscuit. Good. I like the proportions of this ... the mint to the base."

"The mint is a bit grainy."


"It is. The biscuit's a bit tough."

"The chocolate looks dull."


"Yeah, it's very dull."


"It's either not been tempered or it didn't work properly."


"Yeah. Although they are pretty neat. It tastes good, though."

"Not much shine on these, is there?"


"I really like that mint, though."


"The flavors okay. It's just the look of it, I don't like. And a bit clumsy on the spinning of the chocolate. It's too thick."

"This is a disaster."


"Obviously, the chocolate was too thick and it was cooling too much when it went on."


"I got it. Yeah, I got it. Wow. That's about half an inch of tempered chocolate."


"It is smooth, though."


"Yeah. But look at it."


"I know."

"They're nice, though."


"Really nice looking."


"Thin. Bit of a shine to it. All the same size proportions look quite good."


"I love the textures of those."


"The textures are nice."

"There's a little bit of a shine to this."


"That is really good shortbread. Melts in the mouth. It's tender."

"Not much shine on these. They're a bit of a mess."


"Not very good."


"Well, they've been manhandled, which is why it's lost its shine as well."


"It's a nice thin coating of chocolate."


"A lot of mint going on."

"It just looks a mess."


"It's a pity."

"This looks like it was assembled in a bit of a hurry. Just a bit."


 "Ah, got one crumbly biscuit on that one."


"And very smooth mint cream."
