Monster Munchies: Cadbury Screme Egg Biscuits

Before Mondelez International decided to be plonkers and change the Creme Egg recipe, yes Mondelez we have noticed and we hate you for it, I used to love the Creme Egg biscuits and Creme Eggs for that matter. Since that change I didn’t bother buying any last year however as we are on a Halloween Monster Munchies mission today we have the limited edition Cadbury Screme Egg Biscuits. Will these be a trick or a treat?  I take no credit for these at it was the Daddio who spotted these in the local corner shop and bought them for me…

Monster Munchies: Brach’s Peanut Butter Cup Candy Corn

Christmas seems to be infiltrating our shelves already but I say get out the way Christmas because Halloween is coming to town! What better way to kick off the Halloween season than with candy corn, but not just your average joe candy corn but Brach’s Peanut Butter Candy Corn.  Candy corn isn’t so much of an OMG over here but in the US it seems to be everywhere come the spooky holiday. I spied these online and let’s face it I couldn’t not pass on the opportunity to have peanut butter candy corn now could I?  For a whopping 255g…

Monster Munchies: Krispy Kreme Vintage Pumpkin Spiced

What better way to kick off the start of the Monster Munchies Halloween Series on the blog than with the new Krispy Kreme Vintage Pumpkin Spiced. This doughnut marks the end of the comeback doughnuts and like all the others were, it is available for the next two weeks.  For those regular readers you will know I have been less than impressed. The Vintage Glazed Kreme was dull, the Powdered Blueberry had the most delicious fruity filling but was encased in undercooked dough and the Cruller well what the heck was that? I think we are all rooting for this Krispy Kreme Vintage Pumpkin…

Waitrose Cherry Bakewell Scones

Put down your fruity, cheesey or plain scones because things have just got interesting. Waitrose Cherry Bakewell Scones have sneaked onto the shelves, almost as silent as the Heston’s Cherry Bakewell Hot Cross Buns they did back in Easter, but there is no hiding them from me.  The very fact the quintessentially British afternoon tea staple has been given a cherry bakewell make over is both daring yet genius. For those longstanding blog readers (you’re amazing thank you!) you will recall I raved about the Cherry Bakewell Hot Cross Buns and I am hoping these scones are on par.  For 4…

Ninas Super Fit Popcorn

Hands up if you like popcorn! It’s been popcorn galore on the blog recently and seems to be very much the in thing at the moment, which I really don’t mind. Today’s review isn’t just your average popcorn, oh no, today is the turn of the Ninas Super Fit Popcorn. A little while back I was asked by the lovely Rhiana if I wanted to give a brand new brand of popcorn a whirl, and what made this different to all the rest is these are a range of naturally nutritious superfood popcorn. I am indeed a curious bean as to how…
