Tesco Beef Roasting Joint With Basting Fat

With good beef, I would normally expect it from restaurants but I never thought that you could get that quality at the supermarket as well.

Anyway, over Christmas someone got the Tesco Beef Roasting Joint With Basting Fat which has been sitting in the freezer for a month.

I was surprised how good the quality was when it was roasted, the beef was moist and had a great deal of flavour.

I am not sure what cut it was but according to the tesco website, the joint would be one of the following cuts: Topside, Top Rump or Silverside.

M&S Plant Kitchen chocolate cake jar

Marks and Spencers cake jars have been a real success and now there is a plant based offering!!

There have been so many tempting cake jars in the range but my first cake jar from M&S is plant based.

The M&S Plant Kitchen chocolate sponge cake is layered with chocolate frosting, Belgian chocolate sauce, decorated with dark chocolate biscuit pieces and dark chocolate chips.

To be honest, the taste was so good that you wouldn't suspect that it was plant based at all.

The chocolate chips tasted amazing and the cake was soft and moist.

Overall, I would really recommend this whether you are a vegan or not!

Oat milk chocolates by Well & Truly

I have always wanted to try oat milk chocolates and my wishes came true from Well & Truly who have kindly sent me some oat milk chocolate to enjoy.

Their oat milk range features caramelised hazelnut oat milk chocolate, oat milk chocolate and salted caramel oat milk chocolate which are all vegan and gluten free.

What I liked about them was the the sweetness which is an important factor for me, it was well balanced and no sugar substitutes were used which can comprise the taste.

My favourite was the oat milk chocolate which tasted like dark chocolate as I like a plain chocolate to appreciate how it tastes.

The salted caramel and the caramelized chocolate were in close ties but I would say I liked the salted caramel one more although the hazelnut is also good.

Overall I would definitely recommended these chocolates and would love to see another option with freeze dried strawberries or something with berries.

Tesco Finest Strawberries And Cream Tart (Frozen)

The Tesco Finest Strawberries And Cream Tart labelled their Finest frozen strawberries and cream tart is made with an all butter pastry case filled with an indulgently rich creme patisserie and a beautiful fruity strawberry sauce finished with juicy strawberry halves and a sweet glaze. Enjoy the flavours of summer all year round.
It looked really in the box so I got one to try and it was absolutely delicious, there wasn't too much cream that made you guilty and it wasn't too sweet.

Coop Ready Rolled Puff Pasty

I have always wanted to buy ready rolled puff pastry but wasn't sure which brand to get.

It just so happens that they were reduced at coop for 65p so I got them.

The puff pastry came out nicely in the oven but puffed in a wonky way.

Overall despite being a bit oily, they were really delicious.

Tescos 6 Chocolate eclairs (frozen)

When you can't get fresh cream eclairs overseas, the Tesco frozen eclairs are a good fix.
Priced £1.35 it costs $30.9-32.9 in Hong Kong which is equivalent to £3.29.

Lablled as Choux pastry eclair with a cream filling, topped with Belgian chocolate ganache.
Overall, it was a really good sweet fix but the fondant can stick to the box and they were a bit too floppy to handle after defrosting.

Tesco deli hot dog baguette (Frozen)

Spotted these frozen Tesco deli hot dog baguettes in the frozen cabinet so picked up some to try.

They are labelled as Bread roll with pork sausage, seasoned tomato sauce, mustard sauce, pickled gherkins and roasted onions.

Overall, they were quite tasty and quick to prepare as you just put them in the microwave.
