Lathams Dessert Delight Selection

Creamy, candy-coloured cheesecakes with a pleasingly crunchy shortbread or Oreo-cookie base, flavours include peanut butter and chocolate, Manchester Tart, blackcurrant and liquorice and espresso. Testers loved the complex taste of the liquorice and blackcurrant cake and the caramel hit of the chocolate peanut one. However, some found the sharp, milky taste a little too prominent…

Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference Triple Chocolate Puddings

Sainsbury’s was runner-up in our best showstopping Christmas desserts. With an enticingly bitter Belgian chocolate aroma, these individual puddings are a decadent way to cap a meal. Topped with a silver pewter star for opulence and sprinkled in silver lustre these are intensely chocolatey. We enjoyed the light mousse and soft chocolate sponge hidden beneath…

A selection of gin-soaked puds, sticky toffee variants and plum, ginger and honey treats are all vying for space…

Paella is a staple of Spanish cuisine. It’s a perfect one pan festive dish served at the centre of the table to nearest and dearest – preferably eaten for lunch rather than dinner and warm rather than hot. Its aromatic short grain Bomba rice is gently cooked in rich sofrito stock with added chicken or rabbit…
