Juici patties at IFE2022

Attended IFE2022 where I got these Juici patties because they were at the Island Delight booth.
Initially I thought they were another brand from Island delight but it turns out that they are a different brand now produced in the UK for the market here.
Tried the chicken patty and the vegan bean stew patty.
The chicken patty was really nice and the filling was like chicken curry.
The bean stew was tasty but I preferred the chicken as there was more flavour to it.

Yee Kwan chocolate miso ice cream at IFE 2022

Yee Kwan ice cream is brand of ice cream that I have always wanted to try because I have heard all sorts of good reviews about it.
I was captivated by their chocolate miso ice cream which is a bit like an Asian twist to the salted caramel.
Finally tried when I came accross their booth at IFE2022 and the founder Yee Kwan was their as well.
The chocolate miso ice cream was nice as expected and I loved that salty moreish kick so I definitely recommend it.

Eat your own words at Cadburys pop up Mean Tweets shop

Until the 26th of March, you can head down to SOHO and try the new plant based almond chocolate bar for free.
Each bar is wrapped with negative quotes to convince people to try for themselves and turn the negativity into positivity.
There is a tree where you can remove the negative tweets which is a seed card with a positive one and take the card home and plant it.
I tried the smooth chocolate which was good as expected.
Previously I tried the salted caramel when it came out but was not impressed because of the crunchy caramel pieces were distracting and too sweet.











Biggest hot cross bun (Giant Brioche Hot Cross Bun) available at UK Aldi stores and online from 27th March.

Size matters!
From 27th of March, you can get the biggest hot cross bun in the UK from ALDI!!
Basically it is a giant brioche hot cross bun measuring 8 inches.
Other exciting new flavours: Strawberries and Cream and Cheddar Cheese and Caramelised Onion.


PASTILITE sugar free Apple treats

Attended IFE2022 and discovered this wonderful brand called PASTILITE.
Their goals are sugar free treats made with apples.
Tried the meringue pieces which were probably the healthiest meringue I have tried because they are made with apples and egg white.
Some apples can be rather sweet which is useful in this case of making meringues.
The meringues taste just as good if not better because you can really taste the fruit in it.

I also tried the baked apple dessert which are cakes slices, again without any sugar and they are flourless.
The texture of this cake is interesting because it is like chewy squidy soreen.
You can literally taste real apple fruit in the cake because of the apple fibres in your mouth like when you eat the fruit.
Overall, I can see myself snacking on these with tea.
Currently, there are three flavours and the apple cinnamon is my favourite.






 

Tarwi Lummus aka houmous at IFE2022

Attended IFE2022 where I was bowled over by another houmous variant called TARWI Lummus which is made with Lupis beans hence Lummus!
Just like houmous, they also have other flavours like Beetroot, sundried tomato, regular and herbs.
The original one was really impressive however it does taste slightly different to houmous in the sense that it is more savoury than sharp.
Sampling all four flavours, Sundried tomato and the regular were my favourites followed by herb and then beetroot because it was a bit sweet for my liking.
Compared to chickpeas, Lupin beans have more fibre and protein.


Henderson's Relish at IFE 2022

Attended IFE2022 and finally got to try some Henderson's Relish which is a nice sharp sauce similar to Worcester.
I have always wanted to try this but not many places stock it down south.
