It’s official, Christmas is (basically) just around the corner, and we’re ready and waiting for any excuse to start eating festive snacks. We’ve put together four of our favourite treats for this time of year, so if you’re looking for some inspiration, or you’re just after something to fill your afternoon with, we’ve got you covered.
Now look, we know this one sounds like a wild card, but don’t know it ‘til you’ve tried it. With lashings of cream and custard – the perfect toppings to a crumble, let’s be honest – if you spend some time working on your layers, you can make this look absolutely gorgeous and we bet it’ll be the talk of the toon if you bring it out at the end of a dinner party.
Any excuse to get the piping bags out, we’re in. These ginger biscuits are adorable, and a great way to bring some friends or family together to decorate them. You can go traditional with white and glitter, or go all-out with bright colours and fun toppings, like chocolate drops, or hundreds and thousands. Either way, they taste delicious too, so it’s a win-win in our book.
We do have an incredible sweet tooth, but you need some savoury treats to break it up here and there and this is a great one to stay with the festive theme without going into sugar overload. Think sticky, crispy, and yummy, how the best chicken wings should be. We’re already drooling thinking about these.
After all these tasty treats, we think a drink is the perfect way to top things off so you can sit back and relax. This spiced clementine mix is the perfect festive option, keeping you toasty and warm while tasting absolutely delicious at the same time, and will be a real crowd pleaser if you’ve got mates round.
