[Cake News] Royce Cakes Sutton

Discovered Royce Cakes while I was in Sutton.
The cakes were a like eye candy in the cabinet.
There were so many too choose from and they were affordable as well as colourful.
The average cake only costs  2.50 with so many to choose from like Pistachio, caramel, red velvet, coconut, carrot cake etc!

[Review] Sainsbury's Danish Vanilla Crown

So far all the pastries and sweet treats at Sainsburys are good.

This time I got the Sainsbury's Danish Vanilla Crown which was just sweet and boring but after adding some apple sauce it tasted even better.












[Review] Sainsbury's Bramley Apple Lattice

I love Bramley Apples so tried Sainsbury's Bramley Apple Lattice which tasted good as expected with refreshing chunks of apple in the middle.

The lattice was glazed in some sweet sticky glaze which balanced nicely with the apples.






[Review] Sainsbury's Peri Peri Houmous

Houmous is getting fancy these days because there are so many to choose from like beetroot houmous, Moroccan, Lemon and coriander, Pesto houmous etc.
The range of houmous at Sainsbury's is not that big compared to Morrisons or Tescos but they have Peri Peri houmous which I have not tried from the supermarkets so tried it.
The heat in the Peri Peri houmous was quite intense so be warned.
Overall ok if you can take the heat but I feel that I should try the other brands for the comparison.



[Review] beanit pan fry protein pieces

Spotted these beanit pan fry protein pieces from Sainsburys so as a foodie I had to try them.

I must admit, they didn't look very appetizing because the colour was greyish.

The first time I tried them, I didn't really add much seasoning because I wanted to see how they tasted without anything and the protein pieces were surprisingly delicious with a hint of black pepper while the texture was soft which is much nicer than chewy soya chunk.

The protein pieces are made with FAVA beans which are rich in vitamins and protein etc.

On the second time I tried it, I cooked it with black beans and the two went really well as expected.

Overall, I would definitely recommend try it.







[Review] Sainsbury's Almond Croissant

I looked twice to double check if this was an almond croissant because croissants are normally shaped like a crescent.

Usually I won't buy almond products but previously tried the iced raisin swirls from Sainsbury which had a lovely flavour so I didn't hesitate to get this.

As expected I really liked it because there was almond paste in the middle as well as crushed almonds on top.

To be honest, it looked more like a folded almond danish more than a croissant.

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Count on US Macaroni Cheese

I love Mac and Cheese so tried the Marks and Spencers Count on US Macaroni Cheese to see how it fares with other Mac and Cheese meals at M&S.

The Count on US series are calorie counted hence for this meal you are eating 361 calories.

As for the taste, it was still as comforting without being overly salty or cheesy like some other brands.
