I need to get those chocolate pancakes.

I'm a bit addicted to these.

Ooooh I wonder if they taste a bit like those chocolate and cherry trifles M&S used to do years ago.

I bought a new cherry thing too - Belazu sour cherry molasses. I haven't seen it before and loads of Belazu products were on offer on the end of an aisle on Waitrose so I couldn't resist. I'm not sure what I'll make with it but am thinking dressings and marinades.

It's annoying and weird that we don't get all the Bonne Maman stuff here :lol: Or maybe you need to be in bigger or posher supermarket.

ETA No, not even on the BM French site :(

That is strange! Maybe we Brits have pussified French stuff that isn't suitable for actual France. Like our pussified curries. ;)

Sour cherry molasses sounds interesting!

I was looking forward to different Bonne Maman stuff in France and was a bit disappointed.

I did bring back orangina Hairbo though and some organic, vegan sweets that come in the shape of the Eiffel Tower, croissants and red wine :lol:

Recently I have discovered Hu chocolate, that my Pilates teacher gave us all.

And also Café Direct São Tomé hot chocolate. It’s a just add water one but tastes like a proper hot chocolate.

Is it a croissant in the shape of a loaf, does it come in different flavours?

It’s croissant dough but baked in a loaf tin rather than shaped into a crescent.

I saw one of those recently in a Crouch End bakery, but it was £9 and I was too mean. I feel now like I might not have done the right thing.
