Sainsburys black forest gateau flavour porridge - taste the difference

I was so excited when I saw the black forest gateau porridge which you can buy as a ready to eat pot or as a box.
I deinitely enjoyed this porridge for breakfast.
It basically tasted chocolatey with a cherry aroma.
However it lacked cherry taste and there were not much visible dried cherry pieces.
Would love to see a cherry bakewell porridge.

Baked Toffee Drizzle caramely cake slices

I felt that these were lifeless artificial tasting cakes.
What I didn't like was the waxy texture but after looking at the ingredients, it contains humectant and glycerol.Lifeless artificial tasting cakes.

Sainsburys pumpkin spice cake - taste the difference autumn edition

Unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed with this cake.
Firstly, the cake had a waxy mouthfeel which leads the humectant and glycerol culprit I found in the ingredients.
I can't understand why the manufacturers use these ingredients when Mary Berry does not in her supermarket cakes.
Secondly, the cloves and nutmeg were so strong that it was like eating a masala chai cake.
I am not sure if it is just me but I would associate pumpkin spice flavours with strong cinnamon which I didn't really taste in this cake.

Sweets by Ask Mummy and Daddy

Discovered this brand of sweets by Ask Mummy and Daddy at the Specialty food fair.

Their range was really interesting as well as a must have.

The Tea Bears which are not launched yet are basically sweets as well as teas.

Add a few bears into hot water to make flavoured tea and the more bears the merrier for a stronger taste.

As well as the Tea Bears, the sweet range was good.

I like the way they do sweet treats from old school classics and hard boiled favourites to delicious cocktail candies and soft gummies.

The cake sweets are highly recommended like the Victoria sponge and Batternberg.

I tried the beer mug gummies, lemon drizzle gourmet sweet and pina colada gummies.

The beer gummies were just like beer but they were non alcholic and the aroma is like the smell you get when you talk to someone who has had beer.'

The pina colada was really nice, I liked the pineapple and coconut flavours.

Last but not least, the lemon drizzle gourmet sweets were like hard boiled lemony sweets.

A trip to Sainsfreeze!

Sainsfreeze, a pop up walk-in freezer store which is giving away free grocery products to show how shoppers can reduce food waste.
Wilted herbs can be mixed with oil or water to be frozen into ice cube trays for later use in soups or stews.
It definitely makes sense as sometimes you are buying previously frozen stuff like scones and other baked goods.
The only thing I did ever freeze were bakery items but after this visit, I have learnt that there are much more foods that can be frozen.

Ready to eat smoothie bowls at Authentic Fruits

I am so glad I crossed paths with Authentic fruits who specialize in making superfood, super easy for busy people!
Bringing you the fruits from the amazon to your finger tips!!

Authentic fruits have these smoothie bowls which come in pouches ready to serve or enjoy as they are.

I was given the Açaí Bowl and immunity Bowl which I tried both at their booth.

Both tasted amazing and I feel that the Acai bowl is great in the mornings while the immunity bowl is great for the afternoon.

They also do Acai oil which is like balsamic vinegar also great on salads.

Overall, I really recommended these smoothie pouches which saves me going to these health bars.

It also lets you go wild on your creative side and design your own smoothie bowls and pair it with different fruits and ingredients.

The Acai berry stones bracelet from authentic fruits is such a wonderful idea because it educates people about the acai berry and they make wonderful jewellry that you can wear.

JÖRĐ new oat and vanilla / oat and hemp drink review

Finally tried these drinks and they were surprisingly good.
The oat drink tasted remarkably like milk except that it was not as smooth as regular milk.
The oat & Vanilla was impressive because I liked the way it was flavoured but not sweetened which makes it versatile!

Last but not least is the oat and hemp drink which tastes just like milk.

I have always wanted to try this and I am glad I did.

It is interesting how hemp seeds can the fatty acids in hemp seeds can boost your immune system, which may help your body combat various diseases yet the plant itself can give you highs!
