Belinda Clark Gourmet S’mores Kit

We all know that the best memory from camping in our younger days was when we got to sit around the campfire roasting marshmallows. These irresistible treats always make us reminisce here at The Amazing Blog, so when we received the Belinda Clark Gourmet S’mores Kit, we were instantly transported to sweet summer days.


The reason we adore this kit is that it has everything you could need to make s’mores wherever and whenever you need to indulge just a little bit. Of course, these aren’t the s’mores you would remember from your childhood because Belinda Clark specialises in unique gourmet marshmallow flavours. This kit combines 12 of her scrumptiously hand-crafted salted caramel marshmallows that would make your mouth water on its own, but when combined with slightly melted Belgian dark chocolate thins on gourmet almond biscuits, you will never want to go back to your basic s’mores again. The kit is also equipped with 6 sticks to toast the marshmallows as well your own odourless gel burner that lasts two hours so that you can toast your marshmallows at any moment you desire. Go ahead and enjoy a bit of summer year round. The Belinda Clark S’mores Kit is available for purchase here for £18.50.    

 

Fudge Fancies

In an office full of girls known for their fondness for a sweet treat (in fact savoury will also do, we’re not really that fussy!), this week’s diet has well and truly gone out of the window thanks to gourmet fudge makers Fudge Fancies.

Founder of Fudge Fancies, Michael Goodchild has been dubbed ‘the Heston Blumenthal of fudge’ for his exquisite and experimental range of flavours and presentation. However, unlike Heston there is not a bacon flavoured, frothing, exploding gimmick in sight. Instead, Michael has created a range of the most delicious flavours and unique combinations including Bakewell Tart, Eton Mess, Cappuccino and Mango and Coconut. Office favourites were narrowed down to the Apple Crumble (made from white chocolate fudge mixed with slow baked pink lady apples and topped with a crunchy biscuit crumb) and Sticky Toffee Pudding (made with a dark chocolate fudge mixed with dates, raisins and caramel and covered in creamy milk chocolate).

All the fudge is handmade and contains 100% organic dairy, all natural ingredients and no artificial flavourings. Each fancy is individually wrapped and beautifully presented (making them the perfect gift or party favour) and if you have trouble deciding which flavours to choose you can play a game of Fudge Roulette to receive a surprise selection. We’ve been drooling over the amazing three-tier chocolate fudge wedding cake ever since we discovered their website…all that’s left for us to do is find a man prepared to marry both us and our attachment to Fudge Fancies.

Honestly Healthy

Here at Amazing P.R we like to think we’re pretty good at eating healthily and although we may succumb to the odd late night burger (we are human after all) and definitely can’t resist the delicious chocolates our friends at Demarquette treat us to, there’s no denying that eating right definitely makes you feel and look better. However, as I’m sure you’ll agree, when you’re on the go or want to rustle up a quick dinner it’s often easier to grab a calorie laden sandwich or reach for the takeaway menu.

Luckily, next week Honestly Healthy arrives at Selfridges food hall to tempt us away from the unhealthy ready meals and Thai takeaways (which are definitely not conducive to our bikini bodies!) Honestly Healthy is a range of gourmet vegetarian food created by organic chef (and step sister to Sienna and Savannah Miller) Natasha Corrett and leading nutritional therapist Vicki Edgson. The two friends wanted to create food that was not only delicious but also filled with alkalizing ingredients to balance a typically acidic Western diet. Choose from four different types of ready-to-eat chilled salads or their specially made ready-to-cook dry mixes for those who want to cook at home. The salads promise only good things for your body  such as the Green Goodness, which will enhance your skin, or the Everlasting Energy that will guarentee heightened energy for the rest of the day.

The Honestly Healthy range is avaliable at the Selfridges food hall from the 1st July. More information on the food can be found on the Honestly Healthy website here:
