I've just discovered that my workplace sells a delicious Salted Caramel Sauce. It's a miracle it lasted as long as it did because I kept finding things to eat if off including my fingers.

Is a real thing?? Stollen always like so nice, but the evil marzipan puts me off Aye it is that. If you live in the London area try The German Deli (Borough Market) where they (normally) do both types. If outside I think that Lidl and Aldi sometimes give a choice...

I will see if I can get over to Borough Market someone soon while you're there they also normally sell Erdnussflips (for want of a better description peanut wotsits) which are fantastic! Aachner Pflümli (if you like jam), Ritter chocolate and (naturally!) lots of other German goodies. Go on a Friday or Saturday and they have the whole Borough Market thing going which has some wonderful food-stuffs to explore

Stollen everywhere this year, along with various styles of panetone - shame nobody makes them tasty though.

I'm less picky, and also like Marzipan (One of my mutant powers, allows greater cake consumption) So in general supermarket Stollen and Panetone are fine (Think both the ones I got were Aldi or Lidl last year) but I have to pace myself with Panetone, very easy to eat.
In fact, I like most xmas food with the exception of sprouts, Mince Pies, Xmas Pud, I'm basically the family dumping ground for unwanted traditional Xmas stuff.
Wonder why I'm porky?

I love a good coronation chicken sandwich, but I really wish shops would stop padding them out with onion.
