Easter Treats

Here are some of my favourite Easter treats this year... 

Starting with the obvious.. Easter Eggs. This year it's all about Cadbury's Dairy Milk Marvellous Creations and Creme Egg. The Marvellous Creations Egg includes bars of their Jelly Popping Candy & Cookie Nut Crunch. Love the textures. Just try them. I was given a giant Creme Egg Easter Egg too. Giant egg and a box of five creme eggs. That'll see me through the end of the Creme egg season!! 



Next up Easter Cupcakes from my favourite spot, The Cupcake Bloke. Can be found on Coppinger Row beside Pygmalion in Powerscourt Town Centre every Thursday to Saturday. They had Easter themed cupcakes this weekend and over two visits I tried three Easter cupcakes (Red velvet, Chocolate nest & Vanilla bunny) Sean tried out the raspberry and coconut Easter chick. Fab as always! 








Fallon & Byrne Pecan Danish

Perfect with coffee on a chilly April morning... 



Fallon & Byrne Coleslaw 

Described on their packaging as infamously delicious. Just creamy goodness! 



Poulet Bonne Femme Chicken sandwich

Roast rotisserie chicken sandwich on sourdough. Served with butter, mayonnaise, whole grain mustard and mixed leaves. Picked this up from Avoca in Kilmacanogue but they're also in Avoca at Rathcoole, Monkstown & Suffolk Street. You've gotta try this. 





Finally some drinks... 

Founders Brewing KBS (Kentucky Breakfast Stout) made with coffee and chocolate. Stored in Bourbon barrels in caves under Grand Rapids, Michigan for a year. That special most shops in Dublin are only allowing one bottle per customer! 


Sancerre Rene Carroi Vendanges 2013

Currently €14 at Supervalu. Sancerre is my absolute favourite white wine. This is a good one to try. 


The Lemonade at Super Miss Sue. 

Extremely refreshing and tart with a nice sugary finish. I needed this after a lot of alcohol the previous evening. Definitely recommended if you visit here for brunch.


So that's my Easter treats list but what about you? What did you try this weekend that you really enjoyed?!
