Krispy Kreme cookies and Kreme

Another of the new Veganuary offerings from Kirspy Kreme is a rework of their usual cookies and kreme doughnut. It is essentially the original glazed doughnut with vanilla cookie kreme frosting, topped with cookie crumb. It is made in conjunction with the chocolate cookie crunch that Krispy Kreme also released for Veganuary this year. Thankfully … Continue reading Krispy Kreme cookies and Kreme

NOMO cookie dough rabbit

I don't believe that these are a new addition for Veganuary but this is the first time that I ever seen the rabbits sold separately. I have usually seen them sold as part of a bigger Easter egg set, and over Christmas NOMO tend to release a range of reindeer shaped chocolates instead of bunnies. … Continue reading NOMO cookie dough rabbit

Burger King bean burger

This new addition for Veganuary is technically a 'return for Veganuary' in that Burger King have brought back their bean burger for their 2024 offering. This was a product they offered as part of their main menu but they discontinued it in the last few years, no doubt to make way for their other plant … Continue reading Burger King bean burger

Now while 2024 will be a big running year for me (I have some long distance races planned so training for those starts very soon!), I simply cannot pass up a new doughnut. Especially when it involves oreo cookie too... Enter one of the newest doughnuts on offer from Krispy Kreme. The Chocolate Cookie Crunch, … Continue reading Krispy Kreme Chocolate Cookie Crunch 

New book released!

My local writing group, The Hertfordshire Writing Group, have once again released a new anthology book! The theme was 'folklore', so each story is inspired by and includes elements of folklore and fairy tales - including my story which teaches you to always be kind to spiders. This book was so much fun to be … Continue reading New book released!

Meatless farm beef, red wine and porcini mushroom girasole

I am always quite a fan of Meatless Farm products. Whilst they're food doesn't do anything revolutionary to change the vegan options available on the market, the food is always affordable and consistently tasty. So when I saw that they have released a new range of pasta dishes, I had to give them a go. … Continue reading Meatless farm beef, red wine and porcini mushroom girasole

Richmond meat-free mini sausages

Well we were bound to find a dud at some point... As I have mentioned previously, I am trying to spend this year taking better care of my health and focusing on my fitness goals. I am running more and lifting more weights and as a result, I need to up my protein. Which means … Continue reading Richmond meat-free mini sausages

Fudge Kitchen York

I recently took a short trip to York and I was truly spoilt for choice for vegan treats. There were also so many independent and local businesses, and even with all of the walking we did I still think I ate my own body weight in vegan goodies. However I think this fudge has truly … Continue reading Fudge Kitchen York

Yole frozen ice cream

If you are American, you are probably already very familiar with this brand. However in the UK, this brand is very new - at least it is to me. I have never seen this brand before so was very excited when I saw that they clearly had advertised vegan options. Westfields is a large shopping … Continue reading Yole frozen ice cream
