Christmas: McDonald’s Chocolatey Banoffee Pie

Christmas: McDonald’s Chocolatey Banoffee Pie

Happy Fast Food Friday! I will be honest, the only reason I will go to McDonald’s is for the hash browns and the apple pies. My little cupcake who has done a review on the whole festive shebang here, shared some valuable insight that this year they have forgone the fruit pie, and instead McDonald’s Chocolatey Banoffee Pie has come into our lives. Huzzah! This little boxed pie was £1.19, a small price to pay for what I hope is as enjoyable as their apple pies.I feel they could have been a little more festive in the packaging but nonetheless it was…

Montezuma’s Peanut Butter Snowballs

Montezuma’s Peanut Butter Snowballs

We cannot have a festive eddition without some peanut butter treats. I loved Montezuma’s Easter Peanut Butter Eggs so I was mighty excited to see these Montezuma’s Peanut Butter Snowballs as part of their christmas range.  I love the box and the presentation but I am not enthused by the price. £5.49 for a box is a little pricey to me, especially when on Ocado they are £4.99. The sizing of these was perfect and I like the slightly undone nature where the darker chocolate can slightly be seen through the white chocolate coating. The white chocolate was smooth and oh…

Christmas: Krispy Kreme Santa Belly and Melting Snowman

Christmas treats are here and the limited edition foods are in full swing. Following the Bonfire Toffee & the Gingerbread Ring I didn’t think Krispy Kreme would miss the opportunity to get on the festive train, and thankfully they have climbed aboard with plenty of time before the big day itself. To see us through to Christmas we have Krispy Kreme Santa Belly and Melting Snowman and Snowflake Sprinkles.   Now there was quite the debacle in getting said doughnuts. These did in fact come out yesterday and as usually happens on a Monday, the day does not go to plan. Nonetheless…

Christmas: M&S Gingerbread Teacakes

Christmas: M&S Gingerbread Teacakes

Last week saw the Battle of the Festive Sarnies and this week sees all things festive continue and it is only right we start with the first Christmas good I purchased. Yes, I have braved the new M&S Gingerbread Teacakes. Their Red Velvet and Dulce de Leche ones were less than desirable in taste and didn’t exactly do well on conveying what they were meant to be; so you can imagine my apprehension here with these Gingerbread Teacakes.  Now the reason I hop-footed it down to M&S when I heard these had hit the shelves was purely my love of gingerbread.…
