Our Review Factors
What are we looking for? We were looking for crunchy cookies that are not crumbly with a luscious vanilla stuffing. Chocolate and vanilla are both sweet elements, so we were also looking for balance in sweetness.
A detailed explanation of the different review factors for Sunfeast Dark Fantasy Vanilla Fills is covered below :
1. Flavor
Although chocolate and vanilla are a classic pair, we wanted to see how well do the flavors of chocolate and vanilla compliment here. Is the chocolate cookie sweet and milky or is rich and dark? How intense or mild is the vanilla filing? Does the cream taste artificial? Is there any bitter aftertaste from the cookie? As chocolate and vanilla are both sweet elements, is the cookie too sugary sweet or were they able to strike a balance? We also checked for aroma.
2. Texture
Do the cookies retain their crunch despite holding a generous layer of cream filling? Does it crumble? We also checked for the texture of the center filling. Is it flowy and oozing out of the cookie or is it fudgy?
3. Other Parameters
Appearance: How appetizing do these cookies look? Any broken ones found?
Packaging: Do these cookies come in a box pack? Is the pack resealable? Are the cookies placed in a tray?
Ingredients: This segment covers what are the sources of sugar used? Any preservatives or artificial colors used?

Sunfeast Dark Fantasy Vanilla Fills – Detailed Review
Product Inspection: The packaging of Sunfeast Dark Fantasy Vanilla Fills looks attractive. It comes in a blue color pack. The cookies are neatly placed in a tray. The 75 gm pack includes around 8 of these cookies. Appearance-wise, these cookies look simple. It has a dark cocoa-like color and have light cracks at the top. The color of the vanilla cream is not stark white.
Our Experience: The cookies lack a wow factor. Yes, the cookies are fairly decent to taste but there are two things that didn’t work for them. Firstly, the cookies are very sweet. Secondly, the chocolate flavor and aroma is a bit industrial. The rich chocolaty taste we were looking for was missing.
Texture-wise, these cookies are crunchy. Despite holding a generous layer of cream filling, these cookies nail the crunch. The texture of the vanilla cream is moist and sticky. We liked that the cream is filled from end to end.
Pros
- The aroma of vanilla is inviting.
- The texture of these cookies is crunchy.
- The cream covers the entire inner layer.
- We loved the moist texture of the vanilla cream.
Cons
- These cookies are high on sweetness.
- The chocolate flavor and aroma feels slightly industrial. It lacks richness.
Best Suited For
Sunfeast Dark Fantasy Vanilla Fills will make a delicious pair with a hot cup of coffee. Be sure to adjust the amount of sugar in your coffee since these are extremely sweet.
