Scones and a giveaway!

Last week, I was sent a whole bag full of scones from the lovely people at Bakers Delight. They actually emailed me to ask if I would like to try their newest date and apple scones. And naturally being a scone-fanatic, of course I said yes. I rarely agree to such product-testing and blogging emails but it's scones we're talking about. You all know, judging from this drawing, that I can't resist scones!

So, Bakers Delight sent me two of their newest scones. The date scone and apple scone. Along with my family, we taste-tested both during breakfast and chose our personal favourites. My dad and sister liked the apple scone. My sister isn't a date fan and my mum, Darren and myself, we liked the date scones! I thought the date scones were not as sweet and went well with butter and honey. Just the way I like it!

Of course these scones aren't as fluffy as the famous scones you get from Miss Marples or even Sunny Ridge. But you know what? These Bakers Delight scones are so easy to get hold of! You don't need to queue for an hour just for them. They're baked fresh daily, so easily available from the many outlets and are so affordable! That to me, apart from being yummy, is reason enough for wanting more!

So just thought I'll be nice and share some vouchers so you can try these scones and decide for yourself which you prefer! I have 2 x $10 vouchers to giveaway! Just leave a comment and I will pick a winner on Thursday this week! Do take note, this giveaway is only open to victorian residents.  Now go on and leave a comment!

  5. I've spotted their new scones in the shop but haven't had the courage to try them. Normally I'm not a date fan but I'm willing to give it a shot after reading your description :)
    Thanks for the give-away.

  7. i've been thinking a lot about scones these last couple of weeks. but the truth is, i tend to think about scones mainly as a vehicle for copious amounts of thick cream. ;)

  12. Scones! I love scones. My greatest memories of travelling in London are of eating scones with mountains of jam and cream. Just the weather for it in Melbourne now.
