Prokhorova Noble Bird Classic Review – Value for Money Biscuit Cake

Strangely, I’m not hating it, but I’m not racing for seconds

summarizeEditor's Summary

I tried the Prokhorova Confectionery Noble Bird Classic after my last tiramisu biscuit‑cake left me wanting more. This 70‑gram treat comes in a little windowed box that stays intact and looks cute. The flavor is a gentle coffee‑cream vibe that nods to tiramisu without trying to copy it exactly. At 60 RUB it’s easy on the wallet, but the crumb is a bit grainy and the portion is tiny, so it won’t satisfy a serious sweet tooth. Bottom line: solid value for money, just not a game‑changing dessert.

What’s inside

Sugar, wheat flour (type 1), chocolate glaze (sugar, cocoa powder, cocoa‑butter substitute, sunflower oil, soy lecithin, vanilla flavor), whole‑milk condensed milk (standardized milk, sugar), molasses, coconut oil, egg powder, egg white, glycerin, agar (gelling agent), sunflower oil, citric acid (acidity regulator), sunflower lecithin, leavening agents, vanilla flavor, salt, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda)

The ingredient list looks pretty standard – nothing that raised a red flag for me.

The calorie count is on the high side, but that’s normal for a dessert of this type. Lots of carbs and a decent amount of fat – nothing shocking. I wouldn’t make it a daily habit, but an occasional treat is fine.

Now, onto the part that matters most – the taste. Honestly, I was let down. The cake isn’t outright bad, but it feels flat. Even with all that sugar, it comes across as bland, and I’m not a fan of overly sweet stuff, yet this one just didn’t have any punch. The flavor wasn’t bright, the aroma was almost non‑existent, and it gave me a weird, crunchy feeling on the teeth that I couldn’t quite place.

The size is a bit of a paradox. It’s too big to be a single‑serve snack, yet too small to comfortably split with a friend. If it had been more flavorful, I probably would have polished it off without thinking, but I found myself stopping halfway because it just didn’t satisfy.

Bottom line: I probably won’t be buying this again. The taste didn’t wow me, and the whole experience left me in that weird spot where I’m not eager to spit it out, but I’m also not racing to take the next bite. So, I can’t really recommend it.

live_helpFeatured FAQ

What does the Noble Bird Classic taste like?

It gives you a mild coffee‑cream flavor with a hint of cocoa, kind of a classic tiramisu vibe but on the lighter side. The sweetness is balanced, so it’s pleasant without being cloying.

Is it comparable to the New Brands Tiramisu biscuit‑cake?

It’s close enough to curb a tiramisu craving, but it doesn’t have the depth and richness of the New Brands version. Think of it as a budget‑friendly cousin rather than an exact replica.

How long does the cake stay fresh after opening?

If you keep it in an airtight container at room temperature, it stays fresh for about 5‑7 days. Pop it in the fridge and it’ll hold up for up to two weeks.

Where can I buy the Noble Bird Classic?

You’ll find it in Magnet stores across Russia, usually near the bakery aisle. Some online grocery sites list it too, but buying in‑store guarantees the freshest batch.

Is the price good for the quality?

At 60 RUB for a 70‑gram cake, it offers solid value for money. You get decent flavor and decent packaging without breaking the bank.

Does the product contain common allergens?

Yes, it has wheat, milk, and eggs. The front of the box doesn’t highlight allergens, so check the ingredient list inside if you have sensitivities.

Can I freeze the Noble Bird Classic?

Freezing works, but the texture may get a bit crumbly after thawing. If you need to store it long‑term, wrap it tightly in plastic before tossing it in the freezer.

Is the packaging recyclable?

The cardboard box is recyclable, and the thin plastic window can be recycled where mixed plastics are accepted.

cancelCons

•The crumb is a bit grainy compared with the smoother texture of premium tiramisu biscuits.
•Sweetness is muted, so those who like a strong sugary punch might be left wanting more.
•Portion size is small; you’ll finish it quickly or need a second piece to feel satisfied.
•Packaging cardboard feels thin; it can get crushed if stacked under heavier items.
•No clear allergen warning on the front of the box, which can be inconvenient for people with sensitivities.
•Flavor isn’t as rich as the New Brands “Tiramisu” biscuit‑cake, so it’s more of a decent stand‑in than a full replacement.
