We cook ourselves

You can easily make Bounty chocolate at home yourself. To do this you will need 300 g of coconut and milk chocolate, 500 g of condensed milk, 2 tsp. vanilla sugar.

Chocolate Mars Bounty Paradise mango

Hello to those who stopped by!

I think that there is no person (and maybe there is) who has not seen the heavenly advertisement for the classic Bounty. She was tempted to try the coconut bar. And that was oh so long ago. Even I, not being a fan of coconut aromas and everything coconut, tried it and was satisfied with the taste, but was not delighted.

And so the manufacturer began to produce limited editions of Bounty with different flavors. I didn’t try the last pineapple limited edition, but this year’s limited edition with mango flavor (it turns out it’s not a new product, but a reissued limited edition from 2010) I definitely had to try, which is what I did.

The price in different stores is not very different and mostly I saw chocolate around 30 rubles. Sold in almost any store or supermarket while it’s on sale, it’s a limited edition and you have to try it.

The wrapper is bright and eye-catching. It’s very difficult not to notice such a Bounty, but those who love sweets and new things should try it and evaluate it for themselves. I was lucky enough to try and crack this “nut,” about which I read so much here on Irecommend and saw many seductive photos. But it’s one thing to see, and another to try it yourself.

The Bounty package contains two mini-bars (candies) of 26 grams each, which are chocolate filled with coconut flakes and mango. Shelf life: 7 months.

The composition is not lethal, but there are E-shki.

filling: dried coconut meat, sugar, glucose syrup (corn, wheat), emulsifier (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids), humectant (glycerin), concentrated mango juice, color (paprika extract), salt, flavorings (mango, vanillin) , acidity regulators (citric acid, malic acid), milk chocolate (total cocoa solids - not less than 27%, milk solids - not less than 20%): sugar, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, lactose, whole milk powder, milk powder whey, milk fat, emulsifier (soy lecithin), flavoring (vanillin).

We look at the calorie content and draw our own conclusions about whether we can try it or stay on the diet. We eat two candies and get approximately 10% of the daily calorie requirement for a person.

If you're interested, this bar turns out to be both beneficial and harmful:

Coconut pulp in Bounty Paradise Mango chocolate gives the body a large amount of dietary fiber, which is extremely important for normal digestion. Coconut has a beneficial effect on the condition of the skin, vision, and gastrointestinal tract.

However, everything will be beneficial only if you consume the bar in moderation (calorizer). Its composition is rich in carbohydrates - and this can negatively affect the figure. In addition, the composition also included various additives of group E, the effect of which on the body has not yet been fully studied.

Under the chocolate layer there was a filling with a slight sourness, which is imparted by mango.

The orange filling has a pronounced mango flavor, and there is very little coconut flavor, barely noticeable. The combination of chocolate and filling is sweet, even cloying. The coconut shavings are a bit harsh, but not as hard as in the classic Bounty. I didn’t like the too sweet aftertaste after eating this candy.

I recommend Bounty with mango for tea or coffee.

Despite my calm attitude towards coconut, the new-not-new product turned out to be quite good and I liked it even more than the classic bar. So it’s better to try it now and find out if you like it, or not to try it, and then regret it and just lick your lips. I recommend it for purchase, but still, chocolate is not for everyone.

Thank you all for your attention!

The process of preparing the filling for the “Bounty”

First of all, you need to make the coconut filling. To begin, melt a piece of butter in a deep container and then mix it with sugar. When the mass becomes homogeneous and the crystals are separated, you can add cream to the filling, and then coconut shavings. All components must be mixed. That's all. The filling should be placed in square or rectangular shapes and then placed in the cold. The coconut shavings should absorb all the moisture. Otherwise the filling will be dry. Without removing from the molds, the mass should be cut into small pieces and returned to the cold. Here it must stand for at least 8 hours.

How to make bars

When the blanks are ready, you can make the glaze. To make a delicious Bounty treat, the chocolate must be milk. Of course, if you wish, you can make it bitter.

The coconut filling needs to be removed from the cold. The blanks should be dipped one at a time into the prepared glaze, first pricked with a toothpick. You can also use a spatula or fork. The Bounty delicacy is ready. The chocolate must harden. After this, the bars can be eaten. To make the glaze harden faster, the delicacy can be refrigerated.
