Grindz, 1st Ave, Tauranga

Wouldn't get again: 4/10   $4   Made on site

This caramel slice looked pretty promising in the cabinet but deteriorated as it arrived on the table - the condensation on the icing not an ideal start, not promising.

A too thin malt-biscuit base, a hard, sugary choc icing top (not the ganache type either) meant the tasty caramel filling was a bit lost.  Overall, too sweet to really enjoy the whole thing.  Don't get me wrong, it wasn't too bad, but I'd rather pay $3 for 1/2 the size, than eat it all and feel a bit ill.

I was a bit surprised and disappointed as the rest of the food and coffee here is good.
