ASDA Extra Special Sea Salted Caramel Panna Cotta review

I would never usually think to buy a panna cotta for dessert purely due to the fact I often find them quite bland and boring. Despite this my love of salted caramel took over me when I was browsing the desserts in Asda and I ended up buying this panna cotta from the extra special range. This is described as a clotted cream panna cotta with a salted caramel sauce which was sitting neatly on the top.

I could see flecks of vanilla throughout the thick panna cotta and the caramel sauce had a swirly pattern was a lot runnier than I expected. The spoon cut through both layers perfectly and the texture was smooth with just the right amount of chewiness. The flavour however was outstanding! This tasted exactly like a rich Werthers sweet. It was creamy, with a luxurious tasting vanilla flavour and the salted caramel was sweet and delicious. I cant say that the salt was instantly recognisable but it did add another dimension to the flavour that had me instantly hooked.

This is without a doubt one of the best desserts that I have tasted in a long time and if I'm completely honest I was actually expecting to be slightly disappointed. This definitely tasted like a high quality product and I cant recommend it enough! This is a fantastic addition to Asda's extra special range and I am already desperate to get my hands on it again.
