Sticky Toffee Heaven

Advantages: Tastes devine
Disadvantages: the calories

...Whilst visiting the Lake District recently I stumbled across a little gem and a sticky toffee pudding to die for. Just up the road from where we where staying was a small shop selling the most divine sweets and desserts and I just had to try the sticky toffee pudding though totally laden with fat and calories it was a holiday treat. The pudding comes in various sizes, from individual portions, portions that serve three to four and even a size perfect for all serving six to eight people, as there are 4 of us we option for the middle size also my son cannot abide anything like this so only three of us to eat it all. The packaging is simple yet extremely effective, the pudding comes in a foil container with a lit and an outer packing made from cardboard which shows a picture of the original Cartmel Village Shop where the puddings...

Sticky Toffee Delight

Advantages: Delicious Taste
Disadvantages: Lots of calories

...HEINZ STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING How I Came About Buying It Perhaps you have realised from my past reviews, my family and I are partial too a dessert every now and then, okay, more like every night. Sometimes my mum will bake a huge apple pie, or make up a batch of pancakes drizzled in toffee sauce. Other times, my mum will shove a big bowl of angel delight with mars bar pieces onto the table, or on other times we will be presented with a chocolate mousse or chocolate pudding. This night however was different. Dinner was due to be ready in half an hour, and my mum came up into my room looking awful flustered. I asked her what was wrong, and she told me she had, had a dilemma with the angel delight, it hadn't set properly. What on earth was she going to do for dessert. We went downstairs and I searched through the cupboards...

Review of Heinz Sticky Toffee Pudding

STICKY TOFFEE PUD - Yummy, yummy, in my tummy!

Advantages: Light, airy but still a gorgeously rich pud.
Disadvantages: Inexpensive and too easy to prepare, thus encouraging you to eat too many!

...After a rather stressful day of mothering, I found myself on an emergency milk sourcing trip to our local Tesco Express store. While standing in the queue clasping a four pint carton to my bosom, I looked longingly over at the dessert freezer and spied something new! I was feeling in the need for some comfort and this looked like it could fill the void!! So I stepped out of the queue and considered whether to buy one or two but in an attempt to be a little virtuous, as we are both supposed to be watching what we eat (NB: I find this a very strange phrase?surely if you watched what you ate, rather than actually ate it, you would loose weight like there was no tomorrow?!), I decided to buy one and split it with 'him-in-doors'. Obviously, you can't have sticky toffee pudding without vanilla ice cream, so I bought a (small) tub to go...

I'M STICKING TO THIS PUD!!!!!

Advantages: Tastes gorgeous, easy to find, quite cheap & very filling
Disadvantages: None at all

...wrapping one up in his hankie and putting it in his pocket! Last weekend nan excelled herself though, and gave my brother and me a real treat in a tin - a Heinz Sticky Toffee Pudding, and not between us, but we had a whole one each. She said that her friend Ruby has been buying them for ages and they're dead easy to cook, so as they were on offer in her corner shop (buy one get one free) she got two of them to 'test out' on my brother and me! The tin says they're supposed to go in the microwave. You're meant to open the tin, tip out the contents and put them in a microwavable bowl, and put in the microwave for a couple of minutes. As easy as that! Unfortunately, although nan does have a microwave, she very rarely uses it as she says it's "not right" to be able to cook stuff that quickly and we think she's secretly scared of it...

Review of Heinz Sticky Toffee Pudding

Sticky Toffee Pudding but not as we know it...

Advantages: Creamy texture, nice swirls of toffee
Disadvantages: Not particularly sophisticated, lacks a variety of textures (crunchy toffee pieces would be nice)

...consistency and remind me of the kind of sauces you get in Ben and Jerry's ice creams. The dairy ice cream also tastes very luxurious. With all that clotted cream, what else would you really expect..? It certainly helps to give the ice cream a rich and creamier flavour than usual and a smoother, velvety texture. My only criticism is concerning the variety of textures. Whereas ice creams like Ben & Jerry's tend to be more sophisticated with a range of textures (e.g. dairy ice cream and crunchy pieces of chocolate buried within), this ice cream could be seen as being a bit unimaginative. I would have liked to have seen actual pieces of toffee buried within the ice cream or pieces of sponge, like in a real sticky toffee pudding. NUTRITIONAL AND DIETARY INFORMATION As you have probably guessed, this isn't the healthiest of ice creams out...

COMFORT FOOD, TINNED FOR CONVENIENCE

Advantages: Convenient, Comforting
Disadvantages: Not enough toffee sauce

...If you are like me you?ll have your favourite comfort foods, those treats you gravitate towards when you need a little tender loving care of the edible variety, they give you a lift when life seems a little fraught and remind you of bygone times when all was good and simple. My victual comforters tend to be - for the most part - sweet; with Ben and Jerry?s Ice Cream, Krispy Kreme doughnuts and toffee/syrup puddings topping the list. Whilst shopping recently in ASDA I noticed various tins of steamed puddings on special offer, I?d not had one of Heinz finest for a while so decided to drop a couple of the sticky toffee variety into my basket, after all I?d had a tough day at work and was in no mood to cook anything vaguely time consuming or healthy for tea. I was slightly amused on readying the pudding to eat ? later that night - that...

Simply Scrummy

Advantages: Tasty, easy to cook, good value for money
Disadvantages: Not good for the waistline

...I do enjoy my puddings but quite often after cooking a dinner, it is nice to have a dessert that doesn't require much preparation. Packaging As I already mentioned, this product comes in a tin. On the front of the tin there is a rather appealing picture of the Sticky Toffee Pudding as well as all the usual information such as how to cook it. The tins are 300g in size. Cooking This product is cooked in the microwave. To cook, you need to take the cake out of the tin and put it into a microwavable bowl. Then you simply place it in the microwave for 2-4 minute (depending on the power of your microwave). It really is that simple. Cost These puddings cost 99p each from Tesco which I think is fairly reasonable for a pudding. Quite often, Tesco have this product on special offer where you can get 5 puddings for £3...

Review of Heinz Sticky Toffee Pudding

What is brown and sticky

Advantages: Great price, low fat
Disadvantages: Very strong taste of burnt treacle, unable to cook properly in the microwave

...The answer, of course, is sticky toffee pudding! I love this sickly, calorie laden pudding and have tried many in my time, from home made to mass marketed frozen varieties, and enjoyed every last mouthful. Whilst on one of my rare visits to Sainsbury?s recently, I was excited to find a sticky toffee pudding in the Be Good to Yourself range. Was it too good to be true, a wonderful pudding which is low fat? The ratings I am using are: excellent, good, average, not so good and bad. ?? The Packaging ?? This frozen pack comes in the regular Sainsbury?s Be Good to Yourself blue and green box, showing a picture of a wonderfully gooey looking sticky toffee pudding on the front laden with brown sticky sauce. The box details the recommended daily fat, salt and calorie amounts for men and women, which is always a useful guide. Inside...

Sticky Toffee Covered Chocolate

Advantages: Tastes Delicious
Disadvantages: Watch Out It's Moreish

...it a try. The chocolate bar I ended up with was Lily O'Brien's Sticky Toffee Milk Chocolate bar. For those of you who have not heard of Lily O'Brien's chocolate before. It is a company which was founded in Ireland. I logged onto the website to research a little bit of history to discover that the company started in 1992 by Mary-Anne O'Brien who first made chocolate in her kitchen with the help of a wooden spoon and her little girl Lily who was chief stirrer and taster!!! The company subsequently being named after her. They have received numerous awards for their excellent range of products over the years and provide a huge range of mouth watering delicious chocolates and treats using the finest ingredients. I must admit that brown is not a packaging colour that I find myself particularly attracted to. I do have a sense of humour...

Review of Lily O'Briens Toffee

The Luxury Corner

Advantages: Tastes divine
Disadvantages: You'll want another

...Just last week I discovered my latest addiction when my boyfriend came back from the shop with a NEW Sticky Toffee Pudding Corner from Muller. Since then I’ve eaten several of these delights, eventually I’ll overdose and go on to something else but before that happens I’ll share with you a very tasty experience! No doubt many of you have heard of Muller, a German company, manufacturer of yoghurt pot desserts. I can remember when Muller first came on the market in the UK and recall ‘Muller Rice’ and ‘Muller Light’ and then along came yoghurt with a difference, the ‘Fruit Corner’ yoghurt. This was innovation, little pots of yoghurt with a separate helping of fruit, you could mix them together or eat them separately and there were just so many different ones to choose from. As...
