Harry Ramsdens Salt & Vinegar Hand Cooked crisps (Iceland)

Another nice option for Salt and Vinegar crisps with that extra crunch. I was hoping they would taste like Fish and Chips or like Burtons Fish and Chip snacks.

Iceland Trifle gateau bar

The gateau bar is one of my favourite frozen cakes, it consists of layers of sponge and cream.
Last year, ASDA started selling their branded version which I had for my birthday and it was so delicious that I now have to try the Iceland version.
Visually, it looks just the same as the ASDA one so probably from the same manufacturer.
I felt that the taste was just as good if not better because the strawberry sauce was more punchy compared to ASDA.
The sponge layers were better it was like eating a Swiss roll without sugar, layered with cream and strawberry sauce.
The Iceland box looks better in my opinion as well being baby blue.
Will definitely buying this again because it is so moreish.

New Frozen Potato Hula Hoops and Space raiders from Iceland

Updated Sept 2021:
There is a new Salt & Vinegar hula hoops flavoured potato rings as well as McCoys to the addition:



As a fan of hula hoops crisps and space raiders, I had to get these Frozen hula hoops which were launched in 2013 but were discontinued.
Luckily, they are back in 2021 so I didn't hesitate to buy them.
At Iceland, you can get the Original Salted and BBQ Beef Hula Hoops and pickled onion / Beef Space raiders.
My local only had hula hoops so I got the ready salted.



It was hard deciding, so I got the original salted so I could see how it tastes without the BBQ beef flavouring and it also lets me add vinegar to it to get Salt and vinegar hula hoops and other spices.
The taste of these hula hoops were so friggin delicious.
They taste just like hula hoops with a fluffy potato texture.



Definitely recommend the original so you can add vinegar to it which made it heaven but they do go soggy!

Also added some @mmlsecretspice which gives you spiced hula hoops hence the reason I got the salted so you can spice it with different things.
Without a doubt they taste superb on their own but since they also had BBQ Beef hula hoops I wanted to try flavouring them but I will be getting the beef soon once I have some freezer space!!
Hula Hoops was a match made in heaven soaking the sauce from chicken butter curry and also with fried chip and lots of vinegar.


As well as the ready salted, I also got the beef which were amazing as well with a beefy flavouring and a sweet aftertaste.


I was really lucky that someone was going to another Iceland so I got them to get me the pickled onion space raiders which were stocked there.
As soon as I got them, I couldn't wait to eat them.
Opening the bag, there was a promising onion aroma.
I cooked them in the halogen oven for 10 minutes on medium heat and turned them over at 5 minutes.
Words just can't express how heavenly these oven cooked space raiders are.
They are like McCains smiles to the next level with pickled onion flavouring all the way through.
I found them more satisfying compared to the oven hula hoops because you have more starchy soft potato in ratio to the crispy surface.
The hula hoops are delish but you can keep eating them like popcorn and not get full.
So for carb lovers, I would definitely recommend these.
It would be fun if both these frozen treats had multi packs inside just like the snack version. 
Since both Space raiders and Hula Hoops have beef, I plan to try the space raiders because I prefer the texture but again, I will have to rely on someone to get me them!










Finally found a branch that stocked the beef flavour space raiders but the taste was a bit disappointing.
They had a weird sour aftertaste and the beefy flavour was artificial.










Iceland Finds March 2021 & April 2021

I love Iceland because they keep coming up with great frozen treats but you seriously have to be near an Iceland warehouse to get the full choices.

The one I visit can sometimes be disappointing as they do not stock the new items or they either get sold out super quick.

On this visit, I spotted the Fully Loaded fries series:
Triple pepperoni pizza fries, hotdog loaded fries, BBQ bacon waffle fries and Mac & Cheeseburger pasta.








Frozen treats:
Walls Feast and Butterkist toffee flavoured icecream cones, Magnum double caramel




Frozen potato hula hoops: original salted and BBQ.



Barratts frozen treats:
Cola Bottles, Wham, Strawberry Milkshakes, Nougats, Sherbet fountain, Anglo Bubbly, Banana, parma violets,
