Happy Easter Everyone

Belated Happy Easter!

Easter is getting more and more exciting for Vegans! Sugar high!

This year I got:

Choices White Chocolate Egg and Choices Caramel Egg from Sainsbury's.


The white chocolate egg came with white chocolate buttons. You can see the caramels that came with the other egg. I got a hit of caramel smell when I cracked the Caramel Egg but I found the flavour to not be as strong as the smell. Still tasty.

After Eight bunny from the 99p shop.

After Eights have been vegan in the past but then they added buttermilk. The bunny is vegan though and my mum decided it was better than the creamy After Eights. Lovely mint chocolate.

I'm also tempted to go and try and find this Hotel Chocolat egg today in the sales but it is still expensive!

Yesterday evening the boyfriend's and my uni friends came round to make a vegan roast dinner. :) I had a great time and would happily cook for them all again.

We had:
Roast potatoes (roasted with garlic and rosemary)
Sweet potato and thyme mash
Yorkshire puddings
Roasted onion and parsnips
Broccoli
and Tofu roast with stuffing and gravy but we used shop bought stuffing and gravy

The tofu roast was a bit too salty for my taste but I don't often add salt to my food. I want to try and think of some new flavours for it. I am really looking forward to my tofu and stuffing sandwiches for lunch :)

  2. I found this page while questioning whether after eights are vegan...the ingredients state "may contain milk" but list butterfat as ingredient...does butter stop becoming dairy when it's processed :)Anyway - hope i can find that Choices egg this year!

    1. sorry maybe I didn't explain it very well. Buttermilk and butterfat are not vegan. The after eight bunny did not have buttermilk or butterfat so was vegan. After eights in their normal form are not vegan but used to be :(

    2. yep I know butterfat isn't vegan...not sure After Eight's makers do :)
