Afterschool Cookie Club chocolate and mandarin cookie dough

This is a brand that I had never heard of until my husband told me about it. We had a day exploring London and this shop was advertised as being in Victoria, and as we were nearby we decided to take the trip down to try this. I love a good cookie and when I … Continue reading Afterschool Cookie Club chocolate and mandarin cookie dough

Java Whiskers Cat Café at Shepherds Bush

If there is one thing I am a sucker for, it is a cat café. I obviously want to make sure that they are an ethical establishment before I visit, but once I am satisfied that the cat welfare is the main priority, I am all for it! There is nothing better than a coffee, … Continue reading Java Whiskers Cat Café at Shepherds Bush

Pizza Pilgrims vegan margherita

I first discovered Pizza Pilgrims about 5 years ago, however at that point the only vegan option they offered was a tomato base pizza. Which is exactly how it sounds - pizza with tomato sauce on it - and so it wasn't really a favourite of mine to visit. The pizza was very tasty even … Continue reading Pizza Pilgrims vegan margherita

Vegan Nutella announced!

I audibly squealed with excitement when I sae this announcement... The vegan deities have answered our prayers! Finally a vegan version of Nutella is coming to the UK and I cannot explain how excited for this I am. I fully intend to buy a jar as soon as it is released, eat the whole thing … Continue reading Vegan Nutella announced!

Lidl Sweet Corner strawberry pencils

I have finally found them! Candy pencils have always been one of my favourite sweets, but finding a vegan version has been so hard. I have no idea why its been so hard, but I had given up ever finding a vegan version. My local Lidl has never been the best, usually having a very … Continue reading Lidl Sweet Corner strawberry pencils

Udderlicious dragon fruit sorbet and chocolate gelato

Udderlicious is a brand that I have seen around for quite some time now but was never certain that they had any vegan options available. The few times I did have a look into one of their stores, they had no vegan options on offer, so I gave up checking. That was probably a few … Continue reading Udderlicious dragon fruit sorbet and chocolate gelato

Crosstown and John Whaite rainbow scroll

This doughnut was created in collaboration with John Whaite as part of a charity initiative to raise money for 'akt' as part of their Pride events in 2024. I tried this about two weeks ago, in August. Here in the UK, Pride Month is held in June, however Crosstown state on their website that their … Continue reading Crosstown and John Whaite rainbow scroll

Strawberry Jammie Dodgers

For my international readers out there, Jammies Dodgers are probably one of the main pillars of British society. Jammie Dodgers, Digestives and custard creams. These three biscuits are likely the only things keeping most British people together most of the time. I know, at least for myself, that there are very few situations where a … Continue reading Strawberry Jammie Dodgers

The pumpkin cookie is also back!

I believe this cookie has been around for three years or so, but I don't recall seeing it last year otherwise I would have had one. As per my previous review, this cookie is again a very pleasant autumnal treat to enjoy with a warming coffee. It does have a slight pumpkin flavour to it, … Continue reading The pumpkin cookie is also back!

It’s pumpkin season!

I don't care that it's only September 2 (because I actually had this on 31 August) and so it is arguably too soon to be thinking about the autumn and Halloween....but not for me. I was made for autumnal covers, spooky vibes and oversized knitwear. And we all know that the seasons are dictated by … Continue reading It’s pumpkin season!
