Biscuits of the World Part 5

Well here they are - my contribution to the office international biscuit collection - a kind of sweet, crumbly, almond affair that turns to a dusty powder in the mouth, not the most pleasant taste experience I have to admit.


A real victory of style over substance I was sucked in by the tin and didn't really consider the content


Guy C returns from "having it large" in Ibiza next week and with a bit of luck he'll deliver the goods.

Biscuits of the World - Part 4

Miss Hoskins has been jetsetting again, this time to the sunny idyll of Mallorca. As we all know holidays mean biscuits and here's Catherines offering...


As you can see from the photo by the time I got a look in there wasn't much left - the scraps I managed to scavange where very almondy and pleasantly crunchy on the tooth.

I'm off on my travels next week and Guy C the week after so plenty more bisucit action coming this way.

Biscuits of the World - Part 3

Of course a holiday means biscuits and I'm rather proud of my carefully researched selection.


So may I present to you home made treacle toffee from Penrtith's Toffee Shop and the world famous and rather tasty gingerbread from Sarah Nelson's Grassmere shop.

Biscuits of the World - Part 2

Mr C has been to Paris for a couple of days with his family, as Flourish rules dictate he had to come back with biscuits.

So we're tucking into these little fellas…


…whilst trying to work out which particular Parisian landmark features, any suggestions gratefully recieved.

Biscuits of the World

Flourish tradition has it that whenever anyone gets time off work for a bit of a holiday, they must return with biscuits from their destination. So after Catherine's long weekend in Marrekesh (also known as her annual leave) we are enjoying these fine Morrocan delicacies…


We're undecided as to whether cardamon or coconut is the dominent flavour, but one things for sure - they're very good dunkers.
