Mrs. Freshley’s Valentine’s Day: Chocolate Mini Donuts
Here is yet another disappointing mini-chocolate donut treat.

Hong Da Food Blueberry Layer Biscuit
I am disappointed with this product. I expected it to be heavily blueberry-flavored but no, it wasn’t. The cream between the two pieces of biscuit looks like caramel cream. It doesn’t even look like blueberry cream, and the layer of cream is so thin that it was …
