House of Cinn Cinnamon Buns

Ever since my local Cinnabon shut I have been on the lookout for some delicious cinnamon buns to fill that whole in my foodie heart. Enter the House of Cinn Cinnamon Buns. Not only do they give us doughy delights they are also helping the community because they put people first and are funding and working alongside all manner of projects to empower people to rebuild their lives. In the 4 bun ‘sharing’ pack they come in the classic cream cheese for £4 as well as the salted caramel pecan flavour for £4.50. If you find the single buns for…

Digestive Jaffa Cakes

Branded collaborations are clearly having their moment. We previously had the Creme Egg Oreos, there’s  the newly launched Club Mint Digestives (still looking), the Monster Munch peanuts (coming to the blog soon), and then these Digestive Jaffa Cakes. They have taken the classic digestive and given it a layer of orange flavour caramel and then covered them in a milk chocolate flavour coating. These are £2.25 a pack, although they are usually on offer somewhere, and you can buy them in all supermarkets. They’re sweet, chewy, and undeniably delicious, offering something a little different from your standard chocolate digestive. The…

M&S Pistachio Creme Filled Eggs

Next up on the Easter trail is the M&S Pistachio Creme Filled Eggs.

The vibrant packaging is a win for me, I like the use of the green and orange and the metallic gold on the egg wrappings. The…

M&S Speckled Egg Cookies

M&S is starting to have quite the knack for seasonal goodies and for their Easter delights they have given us the M&S Speckled Egg Cookies. These limited edition cookies contain white and milk chocolate buttons and speckled chocolate eggs, very apt for Easter. Coming in packs of 5, they cost £3.10, which is a little pricer than other supermarket cookies these days. The cookie itself looks the part: generously sized, properly chunky, and studded with chocolate chunks and pastel coloured speckled crushed eggs that give it a playful, Easter‑ready vibe. Taste‑wise, they’re good, very sweet … but it was let…

Oreo Creme Egg

Ever year I say I won’t eat Easter treats this early and every year I cave. What broke it so early this year? The hotly anticipated Oreo Creme Egg cookies which have just landed. This limited-edition cookie promises to combine the crunch and rich cocoa taste of Oreo cookies with the indulgence of a Creme Egg. Is this pairing going to be a match made in Easter heaven? These were bought in Sainsbury’s but you can also find them on Ocado for £1.50 a pack, or Home Bargains and B&M at around 79p a pack. The cocoa cookies are stamped…
