Lotus Biscoff Spread

My Lotus Biscoff Spread is finally here!  Remember how I was stressing that my orders won't be arriving till April?  Well, as luck would have it, the parents went on a short trip to the States and being me, I just HAD to ask them to get me the Biscoff Spread!  Huuuuge thank you to my dear parents who spoil me because they came home with not one, but two jars of Biscoff Spread!  Tastebuds say yay! :)


It took all my self-control not to open the jar straight up and lick my way into the jar.  LOL!  So as soon as we got home, I took these pictures and unleashed the inner cookie butter monster in me!  


And the moment I (and those of you who are curious) am waiting for...  How does it compare to Trader Joe's Speculoos?  *drumroll please*....  It's better!  Just to be sure, I also took out the jar of Speculoos and tasted both, for fair comparison.  And yes, I can 100% say that the Biscoff Spread won over the Speculoos.  Why?  Because of the flavor.  The Biscoff is much more flavorful than the Speculoos.  Every spoonful gives off that distinct cookie butter taste.  Although both are good, I think there's a clear winner here.  I like the crunchy bits better though, so next time I'll be getting that when my jar runs out.

You can order both Trader Joe's and Lotus from LorenaAndLoreta for just Php350.

Lotus Biscoff Cookies

If you've read my post last week on how I love Trader Joe's Speculoos Cookie Butter, this week I've got another treat for you (or me!).  Drumroll please........ Lotus Biscoff cookies!  On my previous post, I mentioned having to wait a long time for my Lotus Biscoff Spread, but other bloggers have been raving about the Biscoff cookies too, so I figured I might as well try them out.  I thought that the waiting time would also be long, but surprise, surprise, Loren messaged me 2 weeks after I placed my order that the cookies are already available!  What's a girl to do?  Run to the bank, pay my deposit and wait!  After less than 24 hours, my Biscoff cookies are here!  Talk about fast and efficient service!  It was also wrapped with cardboard to ensure that the cookies won't get murdered halfway through delivery.  Great thinking!


My cookies arrived in perfect shape!  Not even one was cracked.

.....and the moment I've been waiting for... chomp chomp chomp!  Well what can I say?  It's extra crunchy and tastes just like the Speculoos Cookie Butter, the cookie version!  Oh dear... I might have to order a few more soon because I don't think this one pack will last me a day!

You too can get your Biscoff cookies from LorenaAndLoreta here.  Happy munching!
