There are chocolate chips running throughout the inside of the bar that taste delicious and are a nice contrast in texture to the sponge cake itself. You can see from the image above that the cake bar is a nice shape and are always a good golden colour to show they are well baked. They are very affordable at 9p a cake, and I would happily put them in my trolley every time that I go shopping (and usually do!) The use by dates are normally around 2-4 weeks after the purchase date which gives you plenty of time to eat them. Overall I really enjoy the taste and texture of the Molly&#8217;s cake bars, a nice sponge and delicious chocolate pieces, to be honest the price is just a bonus!<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Quality of Product 5\u2729<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><strong>Value for Money 5\u2729<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><strong>Mr Kipling:<\/strong> These cake bars have very tasty chocolate chips that are not only found inside the cake itself but also scattered on top of it. The Mr Kipling brand is very well known and I am fond of their cakes. The only downside with these particular cakes is that they are cut bars and not baked individually, so the sponges aren\u2019t as soft as some other cake bars such as Molly&#8217;s. Even though I find the chocolate tastes nicer in these cakes the actual sponge itself isn&#8217;t as moist or as soft as its cheaper counterpart. For this reason I would honestly choose the Tesco own version of Molly&#8217;s over Mr Kipling.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Quality of Product 4\u2729<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><strong>Value for Money 3\u2729<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3301 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/severnwishes.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Cake-Bars-7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"487\" srcset=\"https:\/\/severnwishes.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Cake-Bars-7.jpg 600w, https:\/\/severnwishes.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Cake-Bars-7-300x244.jpg 300w, https:\/\/severnwishes.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Cake-Bars-7-370x300.jpg 370w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><br \/>\nHere are what the two bars look like inside. As you can see the texture of the Ms Molly&#8217;s is more moist and is a bigger size. Where as the Mr Kipling bar is a lighter texture sponge but with more chocolate chips.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>\u2729\u2729\u2729<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Thank you for reading this review today.
