My sister and I, decided to try Latvian cheesecake bites - sierini. These are mini bites of creamy cottage cheese, flavored and coated in chocolate or caramel. We have tried several flavors, please let us know which flavor you have tried or would like to try? :)
I don't know what it is.
Tell me
what's
your
flavor.
We're going to be trying all different types of syrochki.
Syrochki are small cottage cheese bites with different flavor.
When I was growing up we only had one flavor which was vanilla.
And now the shop literally do any flavor you want.
Me and Inga picked up all the flavors there are.
I think we literally picked up all of them.
And we're going to try each one and tell you how they taste.
and if they're close to what they claim
to be so i hope you enjoyed this video here with my sister
looks so formal i'm about to go somewhere
this is Anna's birthday by the way i don't usually dress
this way yeah we're celebrating later today
as you've seen our previous video which i posted
a few days ago on our latvian food haul
um we picked up literally how many flavors is it
i don't know how you do the counting i don't know it's
a lot of flavors 10 or 12 flavors
so we're going to try them all now
and yeah see how they actually taste and if they actually
will give any flavor of what it
is so the first one inga picked is the vanilla ice cream
so just to show you those for those who don't
know what the oh wait five second five second
in a five second rule. That's right. Saved it. We saved it.
I was just gonna show you, for those who don't know,
this is how it looks. It's basically mini cottage cheese bite covered
in chocolate and usually you
can infuse it with different flavors.
So it's made with 100% cottage cheese sugar without a bit.
So in American or English you would call this cheesecake.
So these are mini cheesecake bites.
Okay, there you go. All right, very soft.
So this is vanilla ice cream flavor. What do you think?
It tastes like the original
It tastes really good. It tastes exactly like the original one.
It tastes like the original flavor. Yeah
Oh, it's got a bit of that vanilla essence in there
It'd be really hard not to eat these before dinner.
Yeah, we actually have a full dinner later
I have like a three course dinner eating about 10
of these before dinner
Dessert before dinner though dessert.
You usually have one of these or two. I sometimes even have three back
I might as well just finish it, you know
I'm gonna pick the next flavor. So
Caramel. Oh, look at that. It's got caramel
Coating on top. Look at that. So it's got that.
Oh, it smells it smells nice. It smells like caramel
Mm-hmm. All right, let's do this. Nothing inside.
It's still white. It's just got the
caramel coating around it
Yeah, you can definitely taste the caramel
in this one. Definitely, yeah.
Caramel is like very subtle. It's not too sweet either,
which I really like about them. Don't finish it off
I mean, I'm just going to eat them all, aren't I?
Oh yeah, you are.
Maybe we should do like a mystery flavour.
I pick one, you don't know which one I pick.
Okay, fine, do it. I'll close my eyes.
Close your eyes.
Mystery flavour what? And then you're going to give me...
Well, you're going to have to guess what it is, yeah.
Alright, I hopefully...
My taste buds are great, so I'll be able to guess it.
Easy job.
Alright, I'm not looking.
You can open your eyes now, I think.
Oh, it's my...
There you go. It's my favorite flavor. It's a chocolate potato
It is the honey cake which you are very familiar with.
Oh my god. Well, it's still my favorite. I love honey cake
Chocolate potato honey cake
A little bit. I wouldn't say it tastes like honey cake,
but it tastes like chocolate potato that I really really like
So this is honey cake, you know
for those who don't know. I really don't like this
really you don't like it i mean i like it has like
a really strong honey after like smell taste
which i don't like i think it doesn't really like honey to be honest
so i do like honey cake but
that no it's a no for me i think i like this one
but if you're expecting like if you've ever tried
honey cake definitely not a honey cake flavor like you need
to have some like crumbs around it
maybe like crumb coated with like
the honey cake crumbs all right close your eyes now i'll do this
one pick a good one yeah yeah my taste buds
are so bad in comparison to yours although as we've
just seen it was
happening that great
hopefully tried one
flavor all right what
are the things
things inside it's like raisins
and like now it's jelly beans oh
that is disgusting you know what
i usually like the jelly beans it's really not my cup
of tea it's very like it's very stodgy oh my
God, I was like, that is, that was so funny. Let's, let's take something
a bit more refreshing like
mango, like mango. All right, take us back
to Thailand. Yeah, I'm sure it's gonna have the
natural mango flavor in there. Oh, nice
and yellow, guys. Smells, smells really nice. Yeah, put it on
I just want to show you the color. I really like how they're trying
to, that's really yellow, isn't it
again, it's just the coating around and the filling is always the same
that's really good. Oh wow, wow, this is really good
guys, also let us know at the end
which flavor would you really want to try and if you're based
um, in London, uh, the top comment if you have
the most likes, I will bring you this to London, I
promise you. So let's finish off real good. Well
mango cheesecake, you know, to be honest, it's really
hard to get mango flavor in there
so, um, that was pretty good. Should we, should we go for coconut
coconut, coconut, coconut. I love coconut things
in general. You think there's gonna be too coconutty
it could be. What if it's got coconut shreds inside? Oh
that's great. I'm doing with one hand
hold my fork, as long as we don't drop anymore. Well
that's the first one. Oh, that's just the
packaging. Okay, so it's got packaging, could
be a little bit more you know a little bit more
practical, so it's got uh just chocolate around it, I
was kind of hoping they would have coconut
shreds around it but it's just got the coconut okay
and the coconut is inside is it inside
yeah i like this one you can't really see that it's inside
but i'm sure it's like mixed in
Yeah. Oh wow. I've never tried it.
That is amazing. I feel like I've tried it before.
Tastes like bounty with cheesecake.
It literally tastes like bounty because you've got the chocolate
and you've got the cheesecake
and you get that crunchy or coconutty flavor inside.
Nuts. Hazelnuts. Hazelnuts. Yeah. I love hazelnuts.
Okay. I'm actually quite full already. Me too.
Okay so the same thing it just has the coating.
oh actually it does have it has some nuts
in there i think it's on top it's inside oh my god that's
amazing oh wow a really strong hazelnut flavor
actually i think it's in there on the top hidden
away wow yeah just take one more little bite oh wow i don't know you're
not feeling it i don't
know it's quite like quite heavy
or maybe i'm just getting you know we're definitely getting
full getting full of the cheese we've had
a lot already like i said you usually just have one or
two like raisins oh my god i love raisins i'm
not sure about this one i hate raisins
i just i love that's the thing like i'm sure some
of you do that as well like i love grapes but i
just don't like raisins you know literally
she picks them out like if i make something
with raisins or we buy something
with raisins she literally picks them i can have
vanilla ice cream with raisins that's about it
so weird though it's the same thing this is
basically vanilla no bread with raisins no okay
so i think the raisins okay they do look very
similar like if you would have put them
on a plate you wouldn't be able to tell that's what
we should have done we should just lay them all
out you know what it's not a lot of raisins in
there it's like i think i had one or two i think
because this is original i really like it i like
that it's very light i would prefer to have
a lot more raisins in there just want to show
no that's not enough yeah
so it's really not enough raisins definitely you should put more
raisins for people like me
who love raisins okay let's do chocolate let's do this what is this
with chocolate pieces if you're a fan
of chocolate i'm guessing you would love this one
i'm expecting it to be chocolate inside
but i don't know it might be still white inside
we shall see oh yes it is oh my god it's very
chocolate chocolatey and chocolate i can't show
it went up there it's chocolate and chocolate inside
and it's got chocolate pieces in there
you know what
if you love chocolate you're gonna love
this one it's very chocolatey
you can see the little bits
and pieces of chocolate in there no i like it's definitely
more than raisins you know yeah
for sure it's weird right raisins are definitely cheaper than
chocolate so they shouldn't skimp
the raisin parts okay let's do lemon we're gonna do the
lemon fresh you know what i never used to like lemon desserts
and then since we started obviously
baking a lot and i enjoy like
the lemon tarts lemon meringue pies oh i like the color i think
it's the same color as the mango one yeah
it looks quite similar it's so pretty
no no no unbelievable right
so again i think it's just has the lemon coating around
Okay lemon cheese is stronger
Oh wow
I'm sure it's for me
I quite like it
I think I just like plain smooth coating
It's got, you know, I wouldn't say
that the lemon actually comes through quite nicely
It's quite lemony
It doesn't taste baked either
Which most, a lot of lemons is out to do
But it's just not my thing, you know
I don't know, just lemon stuff
I like lemon tart I guess
But apart from that
I was gonna say, jeez!
So this is the most famous cookie dessert.
The one that we had with Grandad the other day.
Oh, I didn't eat it. I didn't have it.
I had two eclairs instead.
Yeah, she had eclair and didn't even tell me.
I had a double eclair.
So this should be interesting
because the actual dessert has a lot of cookies and it's quite stodgy
and it's got cookies and chocolate and caramel.
caramel the color inside is not chocolate
and it's not white it's the caramel color you know
replicating the dessert also i guess it's like it depends how
because you keep these in the fridge
right so you can take them out of the fridge
and eat them right away and they're quite cold
i like that one you know what it surprised me what
do you think no no i don't like the texture in
this it's the same texture as before i think they added cookies
in there no no it's not as smooth
this the original yeah because it's got cookies
in there yeah it's good i like that one yeah so
they should add bits of cookies in there
because i think that would make it like really good this
is my favorite so chocolate potato is my childhood dessert
and i do have it on my channel and now it's
in the form of a cheesecake ah i've literally had like three
or four oh wow oh wow oh you can smell
the rum straight away look at that how chocolatey double chocolate there's rum
in this i think so yeah because
this chocolate potato is made
with rum maybe they don't put like rum in there for kids but
wow what do you mean what
do our kids eat this
it's very very rich very rich different texture
if you had to pick your top three i think if i'm
really going by the flavors it's definitely hazelnut coconut mango yeah
but what are your
favorite three there would be i now i have top five
so mango you know hazelnut i thought you
really liked all your chocolatey ones yeah
and the chocolate potato and the other one i like
them all to be honest apart from the lemon lemon lemon yeah what
are yours definitely mango and i
say coconuts and what was the worst one
lemon no lemon was oh no the one with
the bits even I didn't like that one oh
the marmalade okay the last one guys the
original can't beat the original
so if you've never ever tried cottage cheese
cheesecake bites I would suggest you try
the original because it really tastes
like a vanilla cheesecake
with really delicious chocolate coating yeah let us
