what is the difference between scotch eggs and english
My new business is supplying treat boxes. Lock down has been kind to bakers and food suppliers that deliver.
Once restrictions are lifted and everyone will be clamouring to book holidays or arrange picnics with friends what would be your preferred type of food be in a picnic box?
I’ve found homemade scotch eggs to be a great hit!
Do hope you are registered with your local authority
plus the HMRC
do you have a food poisoning certification
I have registered, I have a hygiene certificate, HMRC what’s that then? lol
I’ll be up at five tomorrow morning! Everything I do is fresh!
Great idea! Especially the home made advertising of it
I have sent these types of baskets as presents in the past and it is difficult to guess what the other person might like in regards pickles etc because the Interflora one for instance do set baskets
Do baskets where you can chose out of lists….list of pickles…list of cakes….
Personally I like anything I don’t have to make myself
Funny you should that Kenty! An old work mate said the same thing to me couple of weeks ago, she’s sick of her own food and has ordered two boxes this weekend for her and her son and his wife !

Don’t think there is such a thing as an English one! Fortnum and Mason’s invented the Scotch egg many years ago! It was designed for posh people going on picnics.
Another idea is to look on amazon and see which treat boxes are selling the most in your specific market.

Thank you puds. This weekend I really wanted to do a Tapas box but found it a bit restrictive. So broadened it to a Mediterranean one with Patatas Bravas, Tabbouleh, Manchego cheese and caramalized onion puff pastry squares, Tzatziki, hummus, Mozzarella layered with basil and tomatoes, Tortilla with chorizo or cheese for vege’s. Two pitta bread and my son called me a heathen for not making the pitta! Everything else is homemade though.
I’m crapping myself now because the local tea room has sold out of delivery for afternoon teas for Mothers day and I need to come up with something quick but my piping skills for cup cakes is shit !
It’s going to be a very busy week! I always practise a box and take photo’s which costs money but my next door neighbours are willing guinea pigs ! lol
LD… get some of the ‘flower’ nozzles – come in sets (usually 12/15) and each one does a different flower/grass etc … one squeeze, no faffing and twisting … look pretty and are idiot proof!!!!

I got some two weeks ago Boo! Dear god I tried and tried but failed miserably with them.
Seems you to have to the consistency of the icing just right and even though I got better after three or four times and even though the flowers looked ok they dropped after a while!
Hmmm….. ld why make life harder than it needs to be? Cant you just use moulds? I found these for under £3.
I’m sure if you have a good look online you cant find betters ones.
