I am very much enjoying Hot Cross Bun season. I’ve been trying quite a few traditional ones, but I do like picking up some of the flavoured ones too. Although there are savouries around, my heart is drawn to the sweeter varieties. I picked up a pack of these Caramelised Biscuit Hot Cross Buns which I found in Aldi. I split them in half and popped them in the toaster. As I was waiting, I ..read more

As a child I got a little tin of Cadbury’s Dairy Milk Fingers each Christmas - the tins are mostly still around too! Back then - in the mid 80s - these were a big deal, and something to respect and treasure. Now? Cadbury’s really don’t put any effort into them.30p off due to short date (more - shelf space for Easter I think) so let’s have a look.The usual, modern version, slim fingers are ..read more

I do love sinking my teeth into a Nestle Lion Bar. I also love the Lion Bar White Chocolate version. So when Cinabar saw this multipack of Limited Edition Nestle Lion Brownie's, she knew that she likely wouldn't see them for dust. She was right. Of course, me being me, I couldn't help compare them with the original Lion Bars. Well, it's more chocolate for me. I'm not sure what I was expecting ..read more

I have bought another novelty hot chocolate, and it doesn’t get more novelty than this; Sparkle The Melting Unicorn Hot Chocolate. I found this in Aldi as part of their Dairyfine range, and it did make me smile. Here we have a white chocolate unicorn, filled with marshmallows and milk chocolate drops. The idea is that you drop in hot milk and have an amazing hot chocolate, which is really quite ..read more

We first found this brand because of the insanely dark 100% variety we found on holiday once, but now it's showing up in a few more places it's worth dipping back in - especially as this version is likely to be a bigger hit with the masses.This is purest chocolate, treating the raw product like an art form or an expensive wine. At nearly £5 for a 70g bar you'll instantly know if this ..read more

It's Saint Patrick's Day on Sunday, and I fancy a stout to celebrate. I do have a bottle of Guinness in my beer fridge, but I guess most beer and stout lovers know what that tastes like. So, Cinabar found me this Minty Breath, Dark Chocolate and After Dinner Mint Stout to write about instead. I do love After Eight Mints, and generally receive a box in with my other Christmas presents. At 5.7 ..read more

Cheese and tomato is a classic combination and a favourite filling for when I do toasted sandwiches. I admit I’ve never actually roasted a tomato, but I’m sure the heat in the sandwich maker part counts as something similar. Today I’m trying the new Mini Cheddars Cheesy Specials: Cheddar and Roasted Tomato, which sounds like something that was just waiting to happen for a new product. Inside ..read more

I haven't seen one of these before, and I haven't had a regular milk chocolate Yorkie for quite sometime. On the side of this Yorkie Orange Duo it states, "one for now, one for later." That statement amused be greatly. I just know I'm going to eat one after another. I'm way too greedy to just have one at a time. On opening the wrapper there was a strong smell of orange from the regular looking ..read more

Oh my word, here we have pink Hot Cross Buns. How fun do these look? I thought that the pink was just the cross on top, but when I split the bun to toast it, the inside was pink too. I haven’t tried the Strawberries and Clotted Cream Hot Cross Buns yet, but I can assure you, I’m loving the novelty already. So these new fruity-flavoured hot cross buns are part of Tesco’s Finest range and ..read more
