Even though the basil was a nice touch, the soup wasn’t that appetizing, which was a let-down. It tasted sugary, had a hint of fruitiness, and left a confusing aftertaste. c) This didn’t exactly conjure up a magic taste. This was on the verge of being too watery, but was saved by the sheer quantity of tomato chunks d) It was slightly darker in colour than the Heinz product, but yet it had the same gloriously thick consistency (I can confirm that it was smooth). e) It had it all – from tangy tomato taste (an absolute must) to its lovely colour, perfect smooth consistency and even creaminess. f) The finished surface was grooved with tiny slits and valleys where the finish settled into the pores, and a pore filler would be needed to get a glassy smooth surface.
