Florentines
Friday, November 19th, 2010Anyone know how to make florentines? cos I certainly don’t! Just tried two recipes, what a disaster! Spread everywhere and couldn’t keep them in shape then they had the cheek to stick to the baking trays big time. Feels like Miss Burns’ cookery class at school all over again……

The Nation’s Favourite Chocolate
Tuesday, August 10th, 2010Whether it’s dark, milk or white the British love their chocolate. Buttons, bars, sweets and puds we can’t get enough of the stuff. Traditionally, we have gorged ourselves on good old milk chocolate, the nation’s favourite, but what about now? Have tastes changed? Are we more sophisticated in what we eat or does the milk chocolate bar still stand head and shoulders above the rest? Let me know what you think, what’s your favourite chocolate dark, milk or white?
