Creighton’s Custard Cream

Over on Instagram I have spied Creighton’s Custard Cream a number of times and have been stalking their website waiting for it to come in stock. It finally did and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity of trying it for myself, as well as a couple of other bars that just happened to have fallen into my basket….  There’s so much choice on their website that doesn’t just stop at snazzy flavoured chocolate but expands to sizes, special editions, truffles, bon bons and lollipops. For a 100g bar it will cost you £3.50 which I think is pretty reasonable for a quirky fun British…

I have sent a couple of Baby Sponges to others for birthday’s, I think they are a pretty nifty idea and I have always got good feedback.

Each…

I finally found…

Jude’s Brown Butter Pecan Ice Cream

Jude’s Brown Butter Pecan Ice Cream is one of their newest additions and I’ve been eyeing up this little beauty for a while. I was impressed with their Salted Caramel number so I have high expectations of this one.  What I love about Jude’s is that you can buy their mini tubs, which aids if you want to try a flavour but don’t want to commit to a big tub. Prices range from £1.85 for a mini to £4.79 for a standard tub and are becoming far more readily available in most supermarkets including Ocado, Waitrose and Sainsbury’s. Brown Butter…
