Product Information

The WWF says it can be produced sustainably, and all the supermarkets say they use only sustainably sourced palm oil. But Greenpeace argues that manufacturers have no way of telling if what they use is truly sustainable. The reality is, the only way to avoid palm oil altogether is to make your own digestives (as we discussed before). You can also opt for a brand that includes rapeseed oil, thus bringing down the total palm oil content. Aside from providing a calorie boost for exhausted health workers, are digestives (whose recipe is nearly two centuries old) any better for you than other biscuits? The Galaxy brand is synonymous with great-tasting chocolate; consumers know the familiarity and quality to expect.” Digestives are the sensible jersey of the biscuit world, comforting without being fancy. There are recipes for homemade versions on the internet but this seems an odd idea, much like those dough presses designed so you can spend hours sweating in the kitchen to make custard creams that look just like ones you buy, but at five times the cost. Mars said that, despite a third of households eating chocolate digestives, branded choice was extremely limited.

Mars Chocolate Drinks and Treats GM Michelle Frost said branded choice was “extremely limited”, despite the popularity of chocolate digestives. My favourite caramel sauce to use is my Homemade Caramel Sauce, it's rich, smooth and absolutely divine! You can also easily add salt to it to make it into a salted caramel sauce. If you don't want to make your own, it's quite easy nowadays to find a good quality ready made caramel (or salted caramel) sauce in the shops or online. I have used Tesco's Finest, Bonn Maman and Carnation Caramel in the past with great results. How long does the cheesecake last and can it be frozen? More controversial is the palm oil that is an ingredient in all the biscuits I tried. According to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), palm oil production is responsible for the destruction of forests all over the world, destroying the habitat of endangered animals and contributing to global warming. Galaxy will launch two types of chocolate digestives, but they will only be available for three months.For teaspoon (tsp) and tablespoon (tbsp) measurements, please use measuring spoons* and not the type of spoons you eat with. Again this will ensure accuracy and provide the best results. Mars Chocolate Drinks and Treats is launching a rival to McVitie’s digestives with the debut of Galaxy chocolate digestive biscuits. There has been very little challenge to the market leader in recent years, even though research would suggest that there is space for a market challenger brand to occupy.” The digestive’s other major ingredients are fat and sugar. Or rather, sugar-like substances, such as invert sugar syrup, a sweeter-than-sugar mixture of glucose and fructose much loved by industrial biscuit bakers as it improves the browning and flavour. It’s also considered an indicator that the food is ultra-processed, and so should be consumed with circumspection – however, we don’t need a health report to know not to stuff ourselves with biscuits. It comes after category leader McVitie’s launched a non-HFSS digestive biscuit – Wholesense Digestives – in June.

In fact, when the recipe was invented by two Scottish doctors in 1839 (McVitie’s manufactured its own secret recipe, created by Sir Alexander Grant, in 1892), the supposed “digestive” benefit came from the dose of bicarbonate of soda which lightens the texture, and, they postulated, might help with acid reflux. These days, commercial forms of baking powder (bicarb mixed with acid) are used, which helps the biscuit rise a bit, but whether there was ever any real digestive benefit is debatable. I used the Galaxy Caramel Buttons to decorate the top purely because I saw them in the shop and they looked yummy, but if you can't find them then use pieces of Galaxy Caramel chocolate bar instead. The merging of Fox’s and Burton’s followed their acquisition by a Ferrero-related company in autumn 2020 and summer 2021 respectively. Simon Browne is leading the new business as CEO, having worked as managing director for Burton’s since August 2015. She said: “There has been very little challenge to the market leader in recent years, even though research would suggest that there is space for a market challenger brand to occupy. The NPD would reach different occasions and appeal to “a wider spectrum of shopper demographics”, said Frost.This number rises to 55% in 18 to 25-year-olds, suggesting there is a fantastic opportunity for retailers to increase penetration with our Galaxy chocolate digestive biscuits.”
