Instant noodles are rightly known as comfort food. A warm hug in a bowl, there are tons of ways to enjoy a pack of instant noodles. With some chopped veggies for crunch, an extra-large pinch of red chilly powder, or a huge squeeze of some ketchup, we all have our favorite recipes, don’t we?

Sunfeast Yippee Noodles – Our Review Factors
When it comes to instant noodles, the tastemaker can make or break it. We considered the flavor and texture of the noodles. In addition to these, we also gauged whether or not the tastemakers did justice to the flavor names.
Following are other significant parameters that helped us with our Sunfeast Yippee noodles review.
1. Taste
All credit for the taste of instant noodles goes to the masala mix or the pack of tastemaker. The seasonings in the tastemaker need to be proportioned and the overall quantity must be enough for the entire noodle cake when cooked.
2. Flavour
All tastemakers use common ingredients like spices and condiments mix and dehydrated veggies. In our review, we talk about how well the flavors came through, which Sunfeast Yippee noodles variant has the most intense flavor, etc.
3. Colour & Texture
The color of the noodle cake highly depends on the ingredients that have been used in the making. There is a slight shift in the color of noodles once cooked.
The tastemaker also helps change the color of the dish a bit. Spices like turmeric and red chilly powder have intense colors that bring different shades to the final product.
4. Price
Are the noodles competitively priced?
The 65-70 gm packs of Sunfeast Yippee noodles are priced at Rs 15-20/-. The Power Up Atta variant is priced at Rs 20, the other two we tried for our Sunfeast Yippee noodles review were priced at Rs 15/-.
