Hotel Chocolat Banoffee Pie

Hotel Chocolat Banoffee Pie

Happy 2018 Everyone! It is practically half way through January, how can this be? Today marks my first post of the year, yes I could do a nice healthy number but the chocolate has won me over. Last year we had the Hotel Chocolat Treacle Tart, which in its entirety was pretty good, however it is now the turn of a banana classic, enter Hotel Chocolat Banoffee Pie.  Of the two I have tried this is the one I was most excited about because of the banana element. Typically getting the banana flavour right is a tricky business, it is…

Collective For Kids Banana n Vanilla

Collective For Kids Banana n Vanilla

Banana is such a delicious flavour but so underused. You can bet your bottom dollar that if there is something banana flavoured I am going to want to try it and today is no exception with the new Collective For Kids Banana n Vanilla yoghurt. I have seen their tantalising flavours but have partaken in a Collective yoghurt until now. This new flavour sits alongside Mango n Peach and Strawberry n Raspberry. They maybe designed for kiddies but frankly that isn’t going to stop me, adults can enjoy banana yoghurts too you know! Made with whole milk, no nasties, vegetarian friendly and gluten free, this…

Hotel Chocolat Banana Bread

In a spooky coincidence a few weeks back I was discussing the new Hotel Chocolate Banana Bread Selectors I had spied on the net, when the lovely Lot-o-Choc raved about them and I just new I had to get my hands on them pronto. Part of their autumnal range, Hotel Chocolat may have answered my banana chocolate prayers with this little beauty, lets find out.  For 6 Banana Bread Selectors it will set you back £3.85, or buy 3 and you save a measly 70p. I think it is important to mention here that these are a chocolatiers take on the…

Soreen Malt & Fruit Loaves

Soreen Malt & Fruit Loaves

I have a confession to make. I have never tried Soreen. I feel it is a right of passage that you have to have had this malty fruity loaf however it’s just not something I have ever got round to having. I think Soreen’s spidey senses were tingling because the lovely people at Soreen kindly sent me all of their various Fruit Loaves to try. Now why did I agree to give these a whirl? Well I must say other than sure curiosity and the love of an afternoon treat, it boiled down to the Banana loaf! Banana flavoured things are so…

M&S Banana & Dulce De Leche Slices

M&S Banana & Dulce De Leche Slices

The spirit of summer is well and truly alive in M&S and they have plenty of new products to tantalise anyones tastebuds. A strong theme that is evident in the new range is Dulce De Leche, they have gone a bit crazy on the stuff, but heck I’m not complaining nor can I blame them as this stuff is delicious. We have hit the dessert aisle in today’s review with M&S Banana & Dulce De Leche Slices. Alert we have an annoying inner packaging situation here. Yes I know you want to keep these slices looking as beautiful as possible…
