This doesn’t blow my mind away but it is okay and not bad for a quick dessert run! I get it from Cole’s, they usually have it stocked pretty frequently so it’s comnvient!

✅ Positives 1. Taste & Texture • Creamy vanilla custard filling – smooth and sweet. • Flaky puff pastry layers give a nice contrast. • Icing top adds extra sweetness and visual appeal. 2. Convenience • Ready-to-eat. • Pre-cut and packed – no slicing needed. • Easy dessert option for home or takeaway. 3. Portion Control • 2-pack helps limit overconsumption compared to large cake trays. 4. Affordable • Usually cheaper than bakery-made fresh vanilla slices. ⸻ ❌ Negatives 1. High Sugar • Custard + icing = very high sugar content. • Not suitable for diabetics or people reducing sugar. 2. High Calories • Puff pastry contains butter or vegetable fats. • Can be 300–400+ calories per slice. 3. Texture Can Be Soggy • Supermarket versions sometimes lose crispness. • Pastry may soften in fridge storage. 4. Artificial Flavouring • Some brands use artificial vanilla flavour instead of real vanilla. 5. Short Shelf Life • Custard-based products spoil quickly. • Must keep refrigerated.

Delicious treat to add to the groceries. Quite sweet though and not too custard-y.

A vanilla slice 2-pack offers creamy, custard-filled layers between crisp pastry, making it a rich and satisfying treat. The sweetness is indulgent without being overwhelming, perfect for sharing—or not.

delicious. love the creamy custard inside. the pastry is lovely and crunchy still. the only thing is that the icing is very sweet. but that would work if you ate it all together. I deconstruct mine I eat the custard first yum than the bottom crust and last the icing crust. I have eaten them all so can’t take a picture of them anymore

soft and soggy, not together like you expect a vanilla slice to be. very sloppy and hard to eat, very over sweet

A great small dessert. The icing on the top is nice and sweet, while the centre is creamy and has the perfect texture.

I think I would have rated it more if it was fresher but there were only two left and both expired the next day. Pastry was soggy and icing wasn’t as good as it normally is but the overall the custard part was still fine.

these vanilla slices are the best from Coles the pastrys are crisp and the custard is so soft and creamy

recently picked up the 2-slice vanilla cake from Coles, and here’s my honest review: Pros: • Moist and Fluffy: The texture is super soft and moist — exactly what you want from a slice of cake. It feels freshly baked. • Nice Vanilla Flavor: The vanilla taste is smooth and not too overpowering. It’s sweet, but not sickly sweet, which is great. • Perfect for a Quick Treat: Two slices are just enough to satisfy a sweet craving without going overboard. • Affordable and Convenient: Easy to find, budget-friendly, and ready to eat — great for a lunchbox or an afternoon pick-me-up. Cons: • Slightly Artificial Taste: There’s a hint of artificial flavor, especially if you’re used to homemade or premium cakes. • Not Super Filling: If you’re really hungry or sharing with someone, two small slices might feel a bit light. • Short Shelf Life: Tastes best the same day. After a day or two, it starts to dry out. Final Thoughts: This vanilla cake from Coles is a solid option when you’re looking for something sweet, quick, and convenient. It’s not gourmet, but for a supermarket snack, it definitely does the job.

Two pieces of crisp pastry, nice icing that isn't overpowering but does get sticky as you eat it, the custard is also nice but does get everywhere. A nice but messy treat. I don't recommend if you need to be somewhere nice after.

Delicious custard cream is my favourite part. pastry is nice but gets a bit soggy if on the shelf for longer. however, still good.
