REVIEW - Double Peanut Butter Magnum

Magnum have released 3 new flavours to their range fairly recently - Double Caramel, Double Chocolate and Double Peanut Butter. I probably would have overlooked these (being more of a fan of tub ice cream rather than stick, as nice as Magnums are!) had I not been such a huge fan of peanut butter. It took me two Tesco trips to get hold of them, as they were out of stock the first time - I can't decide if they were really popular or if the store just didn't order very many in. Either way, I managed to snap up a box on round two.

It was £2 for a box of 3, which I presume is an introductory offer and will probably jump up in a few weeks. Grab them while you can!

REVIEW - Ben and Jerry's Cinnamon Buns

It's finally February! Don't get me wrong, I don't despise January quite as much as some people do, but you have to admit that it doesn't have much going for it. It's cold and damp, there's never anything good in the sales, your boiler breaks down (well, maybe that's just me) and you're subjected to a barrage of healthy recipes and fitness tips every single day.

February is much more exciting. Pancake Day! Valentine's Day! Cut-price Valentine's chocolate on the 15th! And, by now it's surely an acceptable time to admit that your New Year's resolutions were never going to be successful and you might as well get back to eating some nice food. Possibly in the form of Cinnamon Buns Ben and Jerry's ice cream.

A February delight

REVIEW - Ben and Jerry's Save Our Swirled

My Christmas this year (or technically last year) was lovely - a full 5 days of festive tunes, lots of food, family get-togethers, slobbing around watching tv and occasionally going on blustery walks in the afternoons. Sadly it was over all too quickly and the period since then has been a bit of a whirlwind of working at my part-time job and trying to squeeze in some revision for my January exams. This evening I definitely decided it was time for a treat and I finally got stuck in to this Save Our Swirled tub of Ben and Jerry's.

Ben and Jerry's is definitely up there in my top 3 favourite brands of ice cream, my only niggle being that I can only ever buy it when it's on offer! However I am also blessed to have an amazing mum who picks me up a tub every now and again as a treat for when I come back from university in the holidays. I've been waiting months to give this one a try, as I know she bought it some time back in October.

Healthy January?

REVIEW - Ben and Jerry's Pumpkin Cheesecake

Yes, I am aware that this is a review of an ice cream that is more suited to being eaten in October rather than December; but, I loved it so much that I felt it deserved a spot on the blog. Ben and Jerry's Pumpkin Cheesecake - you have my heart.

Hands down, Ben and Jerry's is my favourite brand of ice cream. However this may be partly because it's the only one I ever actually eat and therefore I don't know how the competition shapes up! A sad but true fact about me is that I'm on a personal quest to sample all of the UK flavours of Ben and Jerry's ice cream - it sounds simple, but considering the price and the fact that new flavours pop up frequently, my quest is taking a very long time.

I picked this ice cream up back in October and I have to say that I'm really glad I did - looking online it doesn't seem to be currently listed for sale at any of the major supermarkets. Considering the festive snowflake packaging, I presumed that this flavour was going to be available all winter. Apparently not!

Essentially it's vegetable ice cream
