When I saw Halva Vanilla by Kranaos on the shelf of the store, the price of it seemed crazy (2,30 Eur for 75 g!). But I bought it because of the very nice packaging. It looked & costed like it should be the best Greek halva ever, so I couldn‘t resist the temptation.
But I was kind of upset by this halva with vanilla. The taste of it used to be very ordinary: sweet and noticeably bitter. Let‘s state the fact that it was quite good, but I couldn‘t say I enjoyed it. The texture of this treat was too gummy and sticky, and the piece of halva, which was put inside the package, was so thin… It even looked strange – more like a some sample/example of halva than a piece to be served for dessert 🙂
As you understood, Halva Vanilla by Kranaos didn‘t impress me. So, it‘s up to you to decide if you want to try it by yourself.
