Panic stations behind the hedge this weekend! Too many cosy winter nights by the fire & a slow-healing sprained ankle has meant there has been too little pounding of the pavements (or in my case, the unpaved hilly lanes & valley tracks of Stirling!). This has resulted in an awful realization, I'd better do something very quickly to send a few extra unwanted kilos packing! So the only munchie fix I'll be able to indulge in for the next few weeks is a virtual one! So off I go ...........
.....firstly to Richart where Apricot/Lime ganache squares & Almond Praline await.
Then Chocolate-Dipped Mint Sandwich Cookies at Dean & Deluca
Mmmmm, Coco-luxe's Angel Food & Banana Split Truffles look so yummy!
Sadaharuaoki Grenobles will be perfect with a latte.
Karen from Gingerbread Folk in the Blue Mountains makes the most wonderful cookies!
With flavours such as Orange Blossom, Dark Chocolate & Mango Jasmine, Laduree's Macaroons are the gold standard - resistance is impossible!
Just for something a little different I just love these Red Eye Skulls from Hope & Greenwood.
Burnt Caramel Almonds from Recchiuti look almost too good to take out of their stylish packaging, but I'll try! 
I've been known to walk over broken glass for Rocky Road & this Snowy version from Whisk & Pin is no exception.
I definitely couldn't stop at just one of these scrumptious Candied Orange Peel morsels from Recchiuti.
Moist coconut sponge, compote of exotic fruits, raspberries, light vanilla cream filling all make up this exquisite Baiser (kiss) from the venerable Laduree's.
Whoppie Pies from Dean & Deluca are little morsels of delight.
A sidestep into Fortnum & Mason for a fix of Lemon & Strawberry Bon Bons goes without saying. 
Lifting the lid on this spectacular box of Gray & Smoked Salt Caramels from Fran's Chocolates is such a treat!
Time for another latte & these Citrus Shortbreads from Harry and David would be the perfect accompaniment.
How good do these Truffle Fudge Bars from John Kelly look!
Time for a licorice hit & this very generous sampler tin from Dean & Deluca will do just perfectly thank you!
So after that relaxing stroll through cyber munchie heaven, I'm done! And I didn't add one calorie to my daily count!!
You are a wicked woman. I always keep a jar of nutella for times like these. I don't feel guilt because it does have protein in it. Hee hee. Heidi
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so delicious especially the marshmallows and all the chocolate. YUUUUUMMMMMM!
ReplyDeleteOh Millie - I hear you!!! Except I've been at the gym six times a week, off the beloved wine for a month and eating healthy and I lost NOTHING!!! My poor trainer was quite baffled and I was quite peeved! Needless to say, despite my efforts I am going to be a serious teletubby in this wedding on the weekend. humf. So, I better not ponder over these delicious beauties for too long because knowing my luck even cyber sweets end up as extra kg's for me!
ReplyDeleteBut if I had to choose - the chocolate dipped mint sandwich would be my weapon of choice!! xx
Seeing that many delectable treats all listed like that almost makes me crave an apple. Almost! Actually, I remember touring the Cadbury chocolate factory in Tassie and coming out wanting nothing more than a fresh salad. I can be very strong just looking at them on the screen... if they were here in front of me my pathetic will power would be tested, especially those orange delights.
