Toffifee review

Toffifee is a classic sweet treat with a whole hazelnut in caramel with creamy nougat and chocolate.

Most people at some point would have had one in their lives but as I don't have any pictures I decided to get them again.

Apart from being a bit too sweet, the aromatic hazelnut and caramel are really moreish.

In other countries, they have pistachio toffifee which I would love to try.

VEGAN Lindt chocolate, Easter bunnies and eggs.

The latest brand to offer vegan options following Nestle, Galaxy and Cadburys.
EXPECT to see MILKA follow on the bandwagon soon!

Aldi Egg Custard Tarts

I have been trying to get these egg custard tarts but they are always sold out!
Today was perfect, there were so many boxes and there were no queues at the counter!
What got me curious was that bellyneedsfeeding said they were rather flavourless so I thought I would give them ago because I don't like things too sweet.
I chose the box with lots of nutmeg.
Overall, it wasn't that bland but they do taste better slightly warmed and the pastry was really thick compared to other supermarket brands.

The Stennings Bakery at Carshalton Beeches

My first FRESH cream doughnut this year and it was so good.
A bit pricey but you got to support these dying breed of traditional English bakeries.
I got there late so it wasn't the full range but in a way it was good for me because I would be there ages trying to decide what to get and then getting everything.
The icing was amazing on a cold day because it was firm with a chew but the surface was not sticky.
The fresh cream is what a good doughnut is all about and the glacier cherry was a bomb.
Overall it was not too sweet and the whole thing was mess free.

It was nice that they gave me a box for the doughnut.
Will be back for their afternoon tea with cakes and scones.

Stenning's bakery is located just around the train station in this beautiful old building.

Veganuary Krispy Kreme Vegan Apple Custard Crumble doughnut reviewed

Krispy Kreme is a hit or miss for me.
For Veganuary, they have launched three new doughnuts: Apple custard crumble, caramel choc and the fudge.
The new apple custard doughnut was definitely a hit because it wasn't too sweet or oily.

I am not sure if the texture of the doughnut is different because it is vegan but I felt that is was more bready compared to the regular ones which are softer.
The filling was not well filled but decent with real apples and custard.
Overall highly recommended and will be trying the other ones.

Farmfoods Custard Slices

I love checking out Farmfoods because they have so many old school brands like seabrooks crisps and lots of great biscuits.

The Farmfood custard slices are their first branded product I bought.

I would have bought the potato stars as well but they were sold out.

I don't normally buy frozen custard slices but these were labelled as puff pastry with apricot puree which is unusual so gave them a try.

They were quite nice but the puff pastry is really hard and tough.

The custard filling is like fresh cream but rather waxy that it coats a layer of film in your mouth.

Rating: 3/5
