Eating Out at Piccolino Virginia Water

Eating Out at Piccolino Virginia Water

Located on London Road, Virginia Water, behind the walls of the very plain white looking Piccolino building is a restaurant that boasts an open kitchen, wine and cocktail bar and a substantial alfresco terrace. Having never eaten there it was a real treat to go for lunch for none other than my birthday. We sat in the alfresco terrance which features a fully retractable roof and heaters to ensure the ultimate alfresco experience rain or shine. The shade of Liz Earle blue the chairs were more like a comfortable sofa, there’s no surprise you could spend hours there. Menus galore there…

Hotel Chocolat Pecan Danish Selectors

Hotel Chocolat Pecan Danish Selectors

The clocks have gone back, autumn is well and truly upon us and the new seasonal choccies are on the shelves.

The flavours, varieties of choclate whether it be solid, filled or even liquid, it is not hard to find something to buy! These cup shaped selectors are my favourite style, they always seem to give a better ratio of filling. Each of these 6 cups is filled with maple,…

Salted Caramel Fudge Munchies

Salted Caramel Fudge Munchies

Incase you aren’t au fait with the original Munchies they are square, filled with soft caramel and a small round biscuit in the middle, all of which is encased in a thick chocolate coating. These were originally in Morrisons but are now in…

Cadbury Mint Chocolate Fingers

Cadbury Mint Chocolate Fingers

A year on since the Chocolate Orange Fingers now Cadbury Mint Chocolate Fingers have hit the shelves. Is it possible that mint chocolate is going to explode into a tonne of varieties and overtake the plethora of chocolate orange? If you missed the review on the Mint Choc Buttons then you can find it here. As with the Buttons you can pick these up from Tesco for a slightly higher RRP of £1.50 per box. It is yet to be known when they will be hitting other stores. Each tray is filled with crisp mint flavoured biscuits covered with Cadbury…

Cadbury Mint Chocolate Buttons

Cadbury Mint Chocolate Buttons

Move over chocolate orange there is a new flavour back in town and that is mint chocolate. Of course this is not a new flavour duo but seems to be making a comeback. Cadbury have given us two new products and first up it’s the Cadbury Mint Chocolate Buttons. I have not seen these anywhere other than Tesco. Each pack of Buttons is RRP £1.00 and accompanying these buttons is the new Cadbury Mint Choc Fingers. First thoughts were wow these were exceptionally minty and sweet. Fast forward a few days and a packet and a half later, and these…
