Rococo chocolates take 2

so I got the praline quail eggs.They were good and looked like real quails eggs. the lady let me try some chocs such as the lime and sesame as well as the seagulls eggs which have caramel in them but my bf ate it all before i could even take a bite of the seagull egg. The lime and sesame was unusal. I did in the shop try rasberry and yogurt chocolate which was delish as well as a passionfruit one. all in all I love this place and I think you should go try it out.

Napket



I love this place with its chandeliers and its decor. Its very romantic with its candles. Its also very sophisticated.No wonder its called "Napket. Snob food". I had a Frapket which was blended ice and cream. The vanilla one was yum and a black bottom brioche. All the pastries looked nice. I will definetly come back here. I went to the one near the ritz. I think this one is a great location. Great to go after shopping in bond street.

Julie and Julia


So I watched the movie Julie and Julia and I loved it. Its a great movie for a lazy sunday and it is all about the love of food. After watching it I do really want to buy Julia childs The mastering the art of french cooking. Id like to learn more french cooking. You have to check this movie out or read the book julie and julia. You do learn a lot about cooking and the gordon bleu which really makes me even more interested in taking a cooking course.

Hotel chocolat


The best place to indulge in chocolate is hotel chocolat. I love their chocolates and they are not too pricey. You can buy six chocolates for about 3.50. I just love their praline chocolates. I love the one in Bristol because you can sit in there and order things such as hot chocolates, coffees or chocolate fondues. I used to buy a coffee and drink it with their chocolates. Its situated in Bristols Cabot Circus so its the best place to relax after a long day of shopping. Only problem is the lack of seats so when one comes free you have to run for it.They make great gifts to and they always do seasonal chocolates.

Cat and the cream cupcakes


So since im on a mission to try cupcakes from ever producer I thought id go to St catherines docks to buy some Cat and the cream cupcakes from their market stall.They do a lot of unusual flavors such as rasberry, almond and ricotta as well as the usual oreo cupcakes and red velvet. I went for a blueberry cupcake as well as an oreo. They were nice but i prefered the buttercup cupcakes. But they were really nice cupcakes and they were presented well. Maybe I should try the more crazier flavors next time. Next Im going to have to try cookie girl cookies and cupcakes.

strawberries and cream tea?


I keep checking out this website http://www.mycupoft.co.uk/

Im in love with a packaging. Yes I am a sucker for cute packaging. But the teas themself look like they could be good tea. especially if you want to try something new. The have kids teas that have flavors such as strawberries and cream as well as apple and custard. Its one of those they could be good or bad. They sell the teas at harrods but not the flavors I want so I guess I will be making an order online.
