What a better way to start my New Year than a trip to Doughnut Time. It is easy to say that their doughnuts are - without any doubt - the best doughnuts on the market right now. At this point I must have tried most of their options so I definitely have the experience behind … Continue reading Doughnut Time Gordon Jamsey

What is veganism?
The Vegan Society states that veganism is: "Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of … Continue reading What is veganism?
Veganuary 2023
Every year, January becomes Veganuary! You can find out more about the Veganuary challenge here. For me, Veganuary is a very exciting time. In the past few years I have seen the Veganuary movement explode every January. What originally started as a few new vegan products being offered in stores, is now entire lines of … Continue reading Veganuary 2023
A new look!
Hello everyone! I have been a bit quiet lately, but I am now back with a new plan for this blog and a slightly revamped image. I want this blog to be a fun and informative place for people to discuss all aspects of veganism - from the food available at local stores to the … Continue reading A new look!
Loma Tuno and mayo
There is something quite comforting about a tuna and sweetcorn sandwich and since going vegan I have been trying to find a good alternative to tuna. So far, my best has been my homemade chickpea and sweetcorn recipe which does a good job of replacing my tuna meals. I have to say though that there … Continue reading Loma Tuno and mayo
Buttermilk caramel nougat bar
Following on from the Love Raw bar, I have been on the lookout for more vegan dupes of favourite chocolate bars. I have tried Buttermilk products before and I have always found them to be a solid and consistent brand. Their chocolate has been tasty and reasonably priced, but it doesn't do anything spectacular. Again, … Continue reading Buttermilk caramel nougat bar
Love Raw Cream Wafer Bar
One of the key parts of veganism is finding ways to replace well loved non-vegan food items with a vegan friendly alternative. For many people (myself included for the most part) they give up animal products for the ethical reasons rather than because they don't enjoy the food. This can also be a reason why … Continue reading Love Raw Cream Wafer Bar
Doughnut Time: Piggy Smalls
I finally met my donut match...and by match I mean that it was far too much for me and I had no choice but to accept defeat. I have said it before but I say it again, Doughnut Time has some real treats. Every donut they make is an experience to eat and for me … Continue reading Doughnut Time: Piggy Smalls
Batch’d bubblegum doughnut
This is a brand new find for us. From a brand new store that I have personally never come across before. This shop was called Batch'd and upon research they appear to be a pretty big franchise with pop up shops largely in the midlands and up towards Manchester. But for me, this was a … Continue reading Batch’d bubblegum doughnut
Java Whiskers Cat Cafe
A new find for us and the perfect treat for me to celebrate my 30th birthday. Yes I am 30 and yes, I wanted to spend a quiet moment at a cat cafe with some lovely felines and sweet treats. Because I am an adult. Now I have said before that personally, if the cafe … Continue reading Java Whiskers Cat Cafe
