Now it would not be a weekend without a doughnut. As I've said in previous posts, I am spending the majority of my week eating super healthy (protein and veg all the way) and focusing on reaching my fitness goals. This usually means my meals are the same every singe week and are also, largely, … Continue reading Batch’d raspberry puddle

Lauduree vegan hazelnut macaron
I LOVE macarons. I have never regretted moving to a vegan lifestyle, but if there was one thing I missed most it would have to be macarons. The French kind. Especially when they are super soft and cakey in the middle but have that hard and crispy outer layer. Laduree is a French company that … Continue reading Lauduree vegan hazelnut macaron
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
Candy Kittens orchard apple and dragonfruit gummies
A lovely little treat today from a work colleague, who saw this packet of sweets and immediately thought that I would enjoy these. I usually do enjoy Candy Kittens but they are hard to find around where I am - or when you do find them they are stupidly expensive - so I do not … Continue reading Candy Kittens orchard apple and dragonfruit gummies
Pudding Stop vegan cookie dough sundae
Oh damn... Now THIS is how you do a dessert. I think this gave me enough sugar to last me for a good few months but goodness me was it delicious! A few weeks ago, during some annual leave, we took a trip to St Albans in Hertfordshire. If you have never been, I would … Continue reading Pudding Stop vegan cookie dough sundae
PSA: Vegan Percy Pigs
One of the biggest staples of Britain is Marks & Spencer's, and I think the main reason for this is Percy Pig. What started out as a little pig-shaped sweet has now grown into the mascot, who has cakes, sweets, decorations and stuff toys all in his image and his honour. Which is rightly so … Continue reading PSA: Vegan Percy Pigs
Doughnut Time: Lil’ Dough Peep
It was Easter weekend here in England which means a 4 day weekend! The weather has also been surprisingly wonderful (20 degrees?! In April?!) so was the perfect time to take a trip into London. Which means we had to take a trip to Doughnut Time. Now when I go into London I do walk … Continue reading Doughnut Time: Lil’ Dough Peep
Milkybar chocolate
I was very excited when the main chocolate brands said that they would be making vegan versions of their favourites: Milkyway, Bounty Bars (don't hate me, I loved bounty bars back in the non-vegan days!), Galaxy. But they truly lied to us with this, because all they really did was bring out chocolate bars with … Continue reading Milkybar chocolate
Tesco jelly beans
My favourite sweet of all time is the jelly bean and I was far too excited to realise that tesco had removed the beeswax from their own brand jelly beans!! These taste no different to your regular jelly beans and are now clearly labelled as suitable for vegans. I also believe the packet is only … Continue reading Tesco jelly beans
Plant Kitchen marshmallows
I have heard good things about these but my local store never seemed to ever stock these. So naturally when I finally found a packet I nearly knocked over three old ladies to grab them first. Not even sorry. These are exactly how I remember marshmallows being: soft and light and fluffy, while also being … Continue reading Plant Kitchen marshmallows
