Monster Munchies: Baileys Pumpkin Spice

Just throwing it out there that it’s MY BIRTHDAY TODAY!! WOOH! It is therefore only fair that we all enjoy a tipple. For those who follow me on Instagram & Facebook I teased you all with an upcoming Monster Munchies review and can now reveal that yes it is the new Baileys Pumpkin Spice. EEEEK! I must confess though I am not a Baileys lover. I have never seen the attraction or need to drink what is essentially cream however a new leaf has turned because the pumpkin has swayed me to give it another go. To mark the change in…

Monster Munchies: Soreen Toffee Apple

Toffee Apples take me back to my childhood. I used to get one every year and ever year the apple was mushy but totally delicious with its sweet candied toffee and sprinkles. Taking this classic Halloween combination Soreen Toffee Apple is here for a limited time only.  Given my recent love of Soreen I couldn’t not pass up the Toffee Apple. These are part of their lunchbox range and consist of five individually wrapped mini loaves and save on any form of cutting, which is a godsend. These were on offer for a £1.00 in Tesco and are suitable for vegetarians. I am however not…

Monster Munchies: Cadbury Screme Egg Pots of Joy

We never have much selection when it comes to Halloween themed goodies, mainly it is the same old sweets in different wrappings that get churned out every year, or biscuits with a different filling and spooky packaging. Yesterday we saw Screme Egg Biscuits and today airs slightly on another variation with Cadbury Screme Egg Pots of Joy. Bit of an oxymoron with the name if you ask me but hey ho.  Strictly for the spooky holiday I picked these up in Asda for £1.00 for 4x70g pots. Made with melted Cadbury chocolate, well I sure as hell hope so, Cadbury assures us there’s nothing…

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…

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…
