Savane Max Barr'

Savane Max Barr' is the stuffed sponge-cake style snack for people who want something portable and sweet without getting into a full dessert. By our assessment, its real strength is the straightforward filled-cake formula: soft cake outside, a distinct sweet centre inside, and a texture that is easy to eat with no ceremony. The downside is the usual one for this kind of product, because the filling can make it feel heavy and the flavour leans more toward snack-cake sweetness than nuance. In practice it sits between lunchbox food and a supermarket cake, and the gâteaux fourrés label says exactly that.
