To expect Dowe Egberts to make bigger jars of flavoured coffee

I simply LOVE their caramel coffee, as does my DP. But a 50g jar just doesn't last long at all!! Not to mention £3 for a jar that size makes it bloody expensive.

Why don't they make bigger jars?!?!

I am looking at Little's coffee too. 50g is barely a day's worth of your scrumptious beverages.

Are they good? I haven't tried the flavoured ones yet, but Douwe Egberts Continental Gold is the only instant coffee I will buy.

HoraceCope · 17/03/2015 22:32

because they would be extortionately priced if they were full size

Yanbu.
I go through one a week of the hazelnut flavour.

Douwe Egberts make flavoured coffees? Like tbose terrible flavoured coffees that you can get in North America? I love them! Will look out for them now, thanks!

They do in other countries. I brought back 3 jars from the Czech Republic which were double the size and about £2.50 each. If I hadn't been hand luggage only it would have been a lot more Grin

Is Whittards still going? They used to sell bigger jars there.

NorahBone · 17/03/2015 22:58

Ah forget it! Just went to their website and typed in "instant coffee" and it took me to a £100 tea set Grin

I love these they have been my addiction for over a year and have really helped with my diet. I like the Roasted Hazlenut but i LOVE the Smooth Caramel.

I also really like the beanies Cinder Toffee.

Recently bought a beanies amaretto flavour but have yet to try it Helena, am hoping it's good!

Bunny they are delicious. The chocolate one is alright, caramel is sublime! (mixing two together is also a winner) Can't say I've tried the others actually but hazelnut is on the list.

My DP and I also drink Taylors Lazy Sunday filter coffee, our recent fad is using cream instead of milk and a dash of Monin caramel syrup Smile The only trouble I find with syrup is that it's difficult to get the right ratio, whereas douwe egberts have got it down to a fine art.....if only they made 500g jars of the stuff!!!

I feel your frustration may have just made myself a little coffee station of all my flavoured coffees
I've just treated myself this month to the Beanies stash box- nine little jars of flavour :-)
I hate hot sweet things so can't use the Lidl syrup flavours that are really good value. might have bought them anyway

HoraceCope · 19/03/2015 09:09

mainly my frustration is with the actual jars. Exceedingly difficult to open.

Blueandwhitelover · 19/03/2015 17:18

May I recommend the Beanies ones-screw top lids. I've gotten my stash box-happy days.
