Sainsburys ready to roll puff pastry

I love puff pastry, unfortunately the Sainsburys was let down because it did not rise properly although it did have a nice crispy flakey texture.



ChiaTe Pineapple pastry

Pineapple pastry is a famous snack from Taiwan, it is a square snack of shortcrust buttery pastry filled with sweet pineapple filling.
There are so many brands about, the one I tried was ChiaTe 佳德鳳梨酥 which was quite nice, the pastry was not too buttery and the filling was not too sweet.
Overall recommended and they have many other flavours as well like cranberry and pineapple with salted egg.

Relkon superman candy coin box from Labos Candy

Spotted this sweet shop booth in the middle of the shopping centre.
I was drawn over by these retro spearmints sweets so while I was browsing I saw this really nice Superman coin box so I ended up getting it as well as the mint sweet.
There was batman as well but I felt Superman was better.








Cadbury Caramilk buttons and Caramilk bar

Finally got these caramilk buttons.
The first stop was Londis were they scanned at £2.25 so when I said it was cheaper elsewhere they said they could do it for £1.49 which is still overpriced.
Spotted them at Tescos for £1 so got them.
Basically they just taste like white chocolate with caramel and overall very sweet.

Birdseye Potato Waffle

Birdseye Potato Waffle are simply the best, I was brought up on them and have tried other brands which simply cannot replicate how good it is.
These waffles are really tasty and you have this sticky mash texture in the middle with a crisp exterior.
Overall, these are amazing and complete any breakfast.



The above was done in the oven and the second time I had them, I toasted them and the results were just as delicious but much much quicker!



Mini potato waffles also available but I still find the unicorn waffles to buy:



M&S Barbers cheddar melt in the middle cheese fondants

I am so glad I tried the Marks & Spencers Barbers cheddar melt in the middle cheese fondants because they were really tasty.
They are a bit like American popovers filled with cheese in the middle.

Lidl Rowan Hill Thick & Fluffy Crumpets

I had a craving for crumpets so having tried M&S and Warburtons I decided to try a different brand.
Both Lidl and Aldi were offering them for 25p for 6.
Comparing the two I got Lidl because they visually looked better and were softer on touch.
To my surprise, they did not disapppoint because they toasted nicely giving a nice crisp exterior and then you have that soft squidgy texture when you eat it.
They were amazing with some marmite butter or jam.
Also tried it with fluff and the taste was so good.
To be honest, they were just as good as Warburtons so I secretly wonder if they are the suppliers.
