Nestle Vanilla Sandwiches
To be quite honest, I’m not sure how to review Nestle Vanilla Sandwiches, and here’s why. I’ve had what I’ve always called Nestle Ice Cream Sandwiches purchased from my grocery store in 6-pack boxes. I really wasn’t that fond of them. Now years before, there …
hint - Pomegranate-Tangerine

Nestle Carnation White Chocolate
A lot of hot chocolate mixes actually don’t mix well, and then you get either lumps of powder that float to the top, or a big gloppy mess on the bottom. But this mix mixes right in, and I find it very easy to use - you just stir …
