Telma who recently gave us Vanilla Flavored Cornflakes now has a new line of cereals based on their popular Mixflakes cereal. There are three flavors in this new Mixflakes Plus line.
1. Whole Wheat & Rice Flakes with Granola Clusters & Nut Mix
2. Whole Wheat & Rice Flakes with Granola Clusters & Tropical Fruit
3. Whole Wheat & Rice Flakes with Granola Clusters Nuts & Raisins
I tasted the Whole
Wheat & Rice Flakes with Granola Clusters & Nut Mix.

It seemed to me
that it was more of a granola and nuts with a touch of Telma's Mixflakes added
in. I guess this is a good example of "truth in advertising" because
the "tag-line" in the commercials (staring Israel's NBA player Omri Casspi) that are running on TV for these cereals basically says "we
exaggerated with the add ins"! Yeah, they sort of did :). There is a
tremendous amount of granola (67% to be exact), and a nice amount of nuts. As a
whole I'd say there were way more granola and nuts than flakes.
I liked the clusters of granola and I like that there was a lot of them, but there was a lot more granola aside from just the clusters. The small little bits of granola made eating the cereal dry, without a spoon, a little messy. Still, I thought it was tasty when I ate the cereal dry, as a snack.
The nut mix is a
combination of thinly sliced almonds, halved hazelnuts and roughly chopped
pecans. I thought they added a nice crunchy texture and I enjoyed having the
nuts in the mix, both when I tasted it dry and when I added milk.
This cereal, like
all the Mixflakes cereals, is geared toward adults. It was sweet but not overly
so. I enjoyed the sweetness and didn’t think they overdid it.
Bottom Line: I
thought Telma's Mixflakes Plus with Granola Clusters & Nut Mix Cereal was tasty,
very satisfying and filling, but to me it seemed to be more of a granola and nuts
mix than a classic flakes based cereal. Their suggestion on the box to shake it
before pouring into a bowl was actually a good idea this way you get a nice
amount of all the nuts and granola bits in your portion.

(I thought that's a bit expensive for a Telma cereal they were on sale at Rami
Levi and Mega Bul two for 30.00 NIS)

Wow those clusters look goooooooooood! ;)!
ReplyDelete:) yeah I liked them :) I ended up picking out many of them and taking them as a snack "on the go" the other day so I thought it was a good thing that Telma "exaggerated" with how many clustered they added:) on
