Jelly, no not just for the childrens parties

Advantages: easy to make, eat anytime and add things to it
Disadvantages: doesnt set immediately!

With the sun shinning what better to eat than a Jelly! You probably just think of jelly when childrens parties are around or for children but you can eat them all year around. I was in the supermarket, browsing, and saw the jellies and thought we havent had one for ages and although my children are older I decided to make one and put it in the fridge. After a lot of "oh Mum" I knew it was appreciated and not once did it get called "childish food". ...
...get them from between 11p and 30p.for 135g. Ingredients =Glucose-fructose syrup, sugar solution, pork gelatine, citric acid, strawberry juice from which 1% concentrate, acidity regulator, flavouring, acetic acid and cochineal colours. Before you start to make a jelly make sure that you have space ready in the fridge to put it to cool down. All you need is a measuring jug, jelly and saucepan. Cut the jelly into the squares, there are 12 of them. ...

Review of Rowntrees Strawberry Jelly

gu mini puds.. little puds of heaven!!

Advantages: very chocolaty and the best pudding i think i`ve ever had!!
Disadvantages: can get a bit sickly if you get greedy and have more than you should!!

GU mini puds are my absolute favourite pudding. They can be purhased in most supermarkets and although they seem a bit pricey at £1.89, although the price does vary in different shops, they are what i`d like to call little pots of heaven!! The box is black and very eye catching and inside there is a tray of 3 50g black pots with a lid that peels back. The box says 3 cheeky + saucy little pots au chocolat. They are double chocolate truffle made with ...
...bit sickly especially if you are like me and get greedy and sit and eat all 3 in one go but they are definately one for those of us with a sweet tooth! The taste is very chocolatey, I know that may sound silly but these really taste like no chocolate I`ve ever tried! The ingredients are Whipping cream, chocolate (29%)(cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, emulsifier (soya lecitithin) vanilla), milk chocolate (12%) (sugar, cocoa butter, whole milkpowder, ...

Review of GÜ Chocolate Puds

Chocolate Heaven!!!!

Advantages: Taste lovely and really delicious and creamy
Disadvantages: Be careful as the hot chocolate may burn your mouth

We only shop at Marks and Spencer very occasionally in our house, as a special treat or when we know we are having 'company', mum will go out and buy what she calls 'something special' from Marks to impress the relatives we don't see that often! Other times we go there is after Christmas, as mum sometimes gets Marks and Spencer gift vouchers as presents from people and she likes to spend them on nice food for us as very special treats. About a week ...
...time we go back to Marks and Spencer I'll be pushing mum to buy more of these. Reading the box afterwards, I noticed that each little pudding has 315 calories in each one - quite a lot, I suppose, if you are watching your weight, but not surprising really when you consider that they are made with lots of brown sugar, golden syrup and cream! They cost £1.99 but I think they are well worth it, especially as a treat. You couldn't really eat one every ...

Review of Marks and Spencer Melting Moments Pudding

* Serve hot and Gü-zzle...*

Advantages: gorgeous chocolate, warm and tasty, comes with ramekins, usually on offer.
Disadvantages: expensive if not on offer, loads of calories, more-ish!

...products ever marketed was the Hot Chocolate soufflé, and ironically enough this is my first ever taste of a Gü product. I hope it lives up to the expectations! ** Price & Packaging ** I have previously seen the classic Gü products on the shelves in my local supermarket and have always thought they look very elegant and luxurious. Definitely the type that you would want in your shopping basket. The boxes are usually black and silver in colour. ...
...contains the same 'scene stealing hot chocolate soufflé you know and love'. The box caught my eye for 2 reasons, the mouth watering chocolate soufflé on the front was enough to get my mouth watering and they were on offer in Sainsbury's, 2 boxes for £3. You get 2 soufflés in each box and usually they are £2.99 each, so I got a bargain. I originally thought that £2.99 for 2 was a bit pricey until I realised the chocolate soufflés come in their own ...

Review of Hot Chocolate Souffle-Gu

A little bit of what you fancy

Advantages: Low fat, tasty
Disadvantages: More expensive than unbranded versions

I'm a big fan of all things Cadbury's, but don't tend to spoil myself with chocolate all that much. However these mousses are great, at only 81 cals per pot. The pot is the same size as any other standard size mousse, and is certainly big enough for a treat. The mouse itself is extremely rich and thick, not at all like some of the horrible graining diet or value mousses. It is quite runny in consistency, more like a chocolate fool than a chocolate ...
...effect of a very natural product, with a homemade consistency. While there are artificial flavourings within the mousse, it is one of the most natural I have tasted. It is very definitely a milk chocolate mousse, with a mild taste. The packaging on these mousses is a pale purple, with the 'Cadbury' wording embossed into it. There is a tin foil lid for freshness, and the nutritional information is printed on the lid alongside the Cadbury's logo. ...
