Sainsbury's Tasty Fortified Flakes

Sainsbury's own-brand Special Flakes impressed with a great crunch and creamy flavor. At £1.85 for 500g, it's a strong contender for those who like their cereal crunchy and flavorful.

Asda Special Flakes

Asda's Special Flakes surprised with a velvety and malty taste at just 99p for 500g, making it the cheapest option among the six tested. Despite a sandy texture, it topped the taste test with a salty-sweet balance.

Kellogg's Special K

Kellogg's original Special K scored well for texture but fell short on price at £3.30 for 440g. The flavor was more bran-like, and the cost difference compared to Asda's version could save you almost £120 a year.

Morrisons Special Flakes

Morrisons' Special Flakes disappointed with a mushy texture and pale color. At £2.19 for 500g, it ranked lowest in taste, texture, and price among the six tested options.

M&S Special Flakes

M&S' Special Flakes offered a crispy texture but lacked creaminess in flavor. Priced at £2 for 500g, it landed in the middle ground overall, falling short of expectations for an upmarket retailer.

Lidl Special Flakes Classic

Lidl's Special Flakes received mixed reviews with a cardboard-like flavor and stale consistency. Despite being priced at £1.19 for 500g, it didn't impress in taste and texture compared to other budget options.
