It’s not chocolate cake but it’s really nice and really chewy – JD, 4
I love Soreen malt loaf. Lovely squishy, chewy, sticky stuff. I eat it toasted, I eat it with jam, I eat it straight out the pack (they even have little individual bars now for just that purpose).
It’s fairly low fat, but something like 65% carbohydrate, which is probably why hikers carry it as source of long-lasting energy.
As I tend to sit at my desk munching through whatever is to hand, I thought I’d try for a healthier option combining two of my greatest loves: Soreen and white chocolate.
JD and I had a lot of fun making these Soreen white choc squares – they’re not unlike toffees…except nicer.
Ingredients
- Half a loaf of Soreen
- 100g white chocolate
- Cocktail sticks
- Sheet of greaseproof paper
Instructions
- Using a good sharp serrated knife, cut the half-loaf of Soreen into 10-12 roughly even chunks (they won’t be perfect cubes – it’s squishes when you cut it!)
- Stick a cocktail stick in each chunk
- Melt the white chocolate in a bowl
- Dip each chunk in the chocolate, twist until covered and then place on the greaseproof paper to set
- When set, pull out the cocktail sticks and eat
Simple, fun and has lasted me all week. Will you try it?
Disclosure: Soreen sent me some bars and loaves to try, but I’ve bought many more before and since. No payment was received for this post. All posts are 100% honest.

Nice idea! I love Soreen cake and this makes it even more delicious :)
mmm mmm mmmm love this idea – I too am a fan of malt loaf (and have a tendency to snack whilst working!) – wonder whether it would work with dark chocolate too?
love malt loaf, I’m with you on eating chunks as it is. Like the apple one best I think
This is brilliant – I’ve bought some banana Soreen and white chocolate in preparation for a party on Sunday – I can only hope that they last that long….. thank you for the inspiration, they look excellent!
Mmmmmm this sounds like the bea flavour combo !! I must try this thanks for sharing x x
What a brilliant idea! My boys are both fans of Soreen (as am I) Will definitely give these a go, although maybe with milk chocolate as Charles hates white chocolate.
thanks for linking up…it’s reminded me that I need to dig the mini loaves out & dip them in chocolate today! x
Ooh yes, I can see why these might go down a storm – love malt loaf.
Clever idea!
these look lovely! I’ve got some of the banana soreen mini loaves that the kids won’t eat…might try it with those!
x
ooooh I am definitely making these!
Oh I’m going to try that, looks yummy. I might substitute the soreen for my bara brith recipe (so I get the tea fix too) http://knittymummy.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/bara-brith-with-twist.html if it works I’ll put a link on my post linking to this one as a variation on my recipe
Wow – LOVE the sound of these!!!
We love soreen in our house, the kids especially & as a childminder all my childminded children enjoy this as a snack.
I will be doing this as a baking activity for sure with them all & am sure they will love it – what a great idea!!
Thanks so much for sharing “0)
Oh this looks really nice. Love the idea of covering it in chocolate x
