Our Review Factors
What were we looking for when reviewing Hide & Seek Choco Chip Creme Sandwich biscuits?
Well-baked crisp biscuits with a smooth creme and a decent quantity of choco chips. In addition to this, we gauged the appearance, aroma, freshness, and flavor of the cremes.
1. Flavor
Bold or subtle, how are the cremes flavored? Do the two elements result in overly sweet bites? Did the center filling taste fresh or was it synthetic-tasting? What about the fruit variants, did they taste natural?
Is the creme evenly spread or were there some empty bites?
2. Texture
We were looking for crisp biscuits and a smooth creme. Did we get this?
3. Other Parameters
Here we talk about the price, packaging, shelf life and other non-tasting parameters like aroma, appearance and more.
Hide & Seek Choco Chip Creme Sandwich Biscuit Flavours – Detailed Review
The four variants we tried from Hide & Seek Choco Chip Creme sandwich biscuits were Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry, and Orange.
1. Vanilla
Price & Packaging
In addition to the outer wrapper, the biscuits are neatly stacked in a tray. There was one broken biscuit. A 120-gram pack (100 + 20) is priced at Rs 30/- and has a shelf life of eight months. There are 10 biscuits in a pack.
Main Ingredients
Refined wheat flour (maida), sugar, refined palm oil, choco chips (12%) (sugar, edible vegetable fat (hydrogenated oil), cocoa solids, emulsifier (vegetable origin- soya lecithin), artificial flavor- vanilla), invert sugar syrup, cocoa solids (1.5%), raising agents (INS 500 (I), INS 500 (II)), iodized salt and emusifier of vegetable origin (soya lecithin), diacetlytartaric, fatty acid esters.
This also has permitted natural food color (150 D) and artificial flavoring substances- vanilla and chocolate.
Aroma & Appearance
None of the biscuits were broken or cracked, they were uniform in shape and size. The biscuits had a generous quantity of small-sized chocolate chips and a thick layer of vanilla creme. The aroma was a mix of vanilla and chocolate.
Taste & Texture
The crispness of the biscuits was spot on. Neither too hard nor crumbly, these had the perfect bite. The creme filling was smooth and devoid of inconsistencies.
The sweetness was moderate as the chocolate flavor of the biscuits mixes with the vanilla sweetness. Talking about flavors, chocolate was more prominent than vanilla in each bite. That said, the flavors paired well with one another.
- The packaging was quite good.
- Appetizing aroma.
- Spot on crunch.
- The flavors were in sync.
Vanilla and chocolate is a classic pairing that Hide & Seek nailed. We’d urge you to try this variant.
2. Chocolate
Price & Packaging
The price, packaging, and shelf life are the same as above. Despite being packed similarly, there were no broken pieces here.

Aroma & Appearance
None of the biscuits were broken or cracked, they were uniform in shape and size. The biscuits had a generous quantity of small-sized chocolate chips. The biscuits were a darker shade of brown as compared to the creme filling. These featured a chocolatey aroma that was inviting.
Taste & Texture
Chocolate biscuits, chocolate chips, and a chocolate filling- were these TOO sweet? No. The sweetness is rounded, thanks to the slight bitterness of the chocolate flavor. The creme centre is chocolate-vanilla flavored.
The biscuits were well-baked and had a prominent crunch. The creme was smooth and devoid of any undesirable grainy mouthfeel.
- The tray packaging ensured no broken pieces.
- Consistency was maintained in shape and size.
- The aroma was very pleasing.
- The biscuits had a lovely crunch.

This also contains permitted natural food color (150 D) and synthetic (129) and food colors and added flavours (artificial flavouring sustanaces – chocolate and strawberry)
Aroma & Appearance
This emitted a bold strawberry aroma but it didn’t feel synthetic. The creme was a light pink hue. The biscuits, like other variants, were loaded with choco chips.
Taste & Texture
The crunch was as prominent as in other variants, no complaints here. However, in terms of flavor, the Strawberry variant was a let-down. It was primarily sweet and the strawberry flavor was mediocre while that of chocolate was subtle. In comparison with the two other variants, this was the sweetest.
