Leone Rose Cones

A few years ago Rose shaped icecream were the trend at Icecream parlours and gelato shops but there were no retail ones that you could buy and eat at home.
Last year (2020), Coop had these rose shaped cones for Valentines as well as Leone rose cones with a choice of three flavours.
I suspect Leone is the supplier for Coop because the other icecreams they do are also sold at Coop but under the Coop brand.
Anyway, I finally got my hands on Leone Rose cones because they were sold at LIDL for 1.89 for four.
The three flavours are: Blueberry cheesecake, Vanilla hazelnut and Strawberry.
Aesthetically. the strawberry and blueberry are the prettiest but as I have already tried strawberry from Coop, I was deciding between the blueberry cheesecake and vanilla hazelnut.
Ended up getting the vanilla hazelnut because I like hazelnut.
As for the taste, the vanilla top was rather bland and not at all too sweet and when you get further down there is chocolate icecream with chocolate sauce.
Overall, not a bad ice cream but taste wise I wouldn't say it tasted amazing.

Grace Hot Pepper Sauce Very Hot!

Got this randomly from the shop and I had no idea that Grace would be a popular brand until I found it on influenster.
Since I do write about food and snacks on my blog, I joined influenster to review products here.
The bottle is slim and quite ergonomic to hold.
As for the taste, I love the hot kick it had.
I found it tasting similar to Tabasco with less of a paprika taste so I really liked it.

M&S Marks and Spencer Rope Grown Scottish Mussels in white wine and parsley

Previously tried the garlic shallot mussels at M&S and they were good so this time got the white wine and parsley.
The mussels come in two vacumn sealed bags which make it convenient to cook by immersing the bags in hot water.
Cooked these mussels with pasta and samphire and it was delicious.
The only complaint was that the mussels were a bit gritty this time.

The Collective Plant Fudge Yoghurt Review

As I am not a vegan, I have tried other yoghurts by The Collective.
This time I tried the fudge yoghurt from their Plant series which is made from a blend of oats, coconut and rice.
The texture was definitely thick but I wouldn't say it tasted like yoghrt because the taste and texture was more similar to pudding/curd yet it was really silky and light.
Strangely, I preferred their plant yoghurt over their regular yoghurt purely because of the taste.
The fudge at the bottom was sweet and dreamy while the top yoghurt layer had a mild tart taste to it.
Overall, I would definitely get this again and eat it like pudding or a dessert.
