Welcome to the new quick review series on Elizabeth’s Kitchen Diary! Each week I’ll be sharing some of my favourite new products and other things I’ve been loving in a short, bite-sized post. Expect to find books, tv shows and new products in this series!
Mood Booster Cookies – Packed full of superfood goodness this packet mix from Superfood Bakery takes just minutes to whip up into a batch of delicious home made cookies. They’re gluten free too!
Tilda Pulses & Rice – These individual portion sized packets of wholegrain basmati rice blended with pulses and seasonings are packed full of flavour. They only take a minute to heat up and they’re great for weekday lunches.
Clearspring Umami Paste – Give your dishes that instant and unique savoury hit with these new umami paste packets from Clearspring. Not for the faint hearted (or small children!) these sachets add an instant umami (Japanese for deliciousness) to your stir fry, sauce or stew.
Buko Coconut Jam with Chocolate – Seriously chocolatey this coconut jam is superb served on pancakes, in porridge, or simply from the jar with a spoon! Made with only three ingredients: coconut milk, coconut nectar and organic cacao it’s out of this world!
Jealous Sweets – These vegan and gluten free sweeties are full of natural fruit juices and free from any artificial colours and flavours. All the yum!
Elizabeth’s Kitchen Diary was sent review samples of all the above products. This is not a paid post and all thoughts and opinions expressed are our own. With thanks to Freshly Pressed Beauty for the inspiration to start this series!
Courgette & Basil Soup with Focaccia Toast
Great products the sweets and coconut jam look great. I need these 😉
Mood booster cookies sound like a great pick me up!
I really like the sound of those Tilda pouches for some healthy convenience food.
Ooh I’ve only tried the plain tilda rice but these sound fab. I usually go for uncle bens because of all the different flavours but will be checking these out next time xxx
Ooh this sounds like a wonderful blog series – looking forward to it!
I am definitely getting Buko Coconut Jam with Chocolate, sounds absolutely amazing!
I haven’t tried anything featured here…that needs to change!
First time I’ve heard of it, but the coconut jam sounds amazing. & I love those Tilda rice pouches. (Lucy/R is for Hoppit)
It was a new product for me too – and we’re seriously hooked! SO scrummy!
those pulses and rice sounds delicious. i need to try these. they’re so easy to use
They’re super handy for a quick lunch in the office (or home!)
I can’t really have a meal without rice so I should check the Tilda Pulses & Rice. The coconut jam with chocolate sounds heavily. 🙂
We’re big fans of rice too. 🙂
How have I never come across coconut jam before? Mental note made to hunt that down x
It was a new product to me too and I think it should be on shelves everywhere! So, very, good!!!
I *adore* those Umami pastes – another hit from Clearspring!
They have such a fab range of tasty foods, don’t they!
I never tried Buko Coconut Jam with Chocolate before and never knew it even existed so thank you for sharing this. I’m going to try look for this and try it on pancake.
It is so incredibly moreish, and fantastic on pancakes! 🙂
Coconut jam with chocolate sounds like an interesting combination and the mood cookies sound great.
The coconut jam is super, but those mood booster cookies – my mood was boosted simply receiving them via the post! So tasty too 🙂
I haven’t heard of any of these, thanks so much!
My pleasure! 🙂
Oooh, I haven’t seen those tilda flavoured rice before. I will have to try some out.
I’d definitely recommend giving them a go. So quick and versatile!
Loads of great products, but the coconut jam sounds particularly good!
It really is seriously scrummy! Very moreish!
That umami paste sounds pretty cool. It would be interesting to try and use that in some recipes!
It makes for a quick and easy midweek supper idea too. 🙂
Loving the mood booster cookies! The coconut jam sounds lovely as well xxx
They’re such a great idea – 20 minutes to freshly baked cookies, and they’re packed full of healthy ingredients so you feel rather virtuous eating them!
Those Jealous sweets I’ve had before and they are amazing, I was so addicted and sad when they were gone x
Aye, the packets could be twice the size! (but I’m greedy, lol!)
Wow coconut jam with chocolate sounds really interesting, some great finds x
It is really lovely, I definitely recommend trying it!
I love the sound of the jealous sweets – I’ve recently went vegan and I sometimes crave a treat!

Then these are definitely for you! 😀
Coconut jam sounds like a dream come true! Thanks for bringing it to my attention – I’m all in! xx
I hope you find some and love it as much as I do!
I be taking that jar of coconut jam with chocolate – don’t mind me!
Haha, it really is rather lovely 🙂
The mood booster cookies sound great. I’m just going through testing for Celiac’s so am on the lookout for good gluten free foods
I was really impressed with these. I’m not usually one for packet mixes, but for this brand I’ll make an exception!
I love the idea of the tilda pouches for lunch – very handy x
They really are 🙂
Oh my goodness, where did you get the buko coconut jam? Sounds like something from the Philippines where I’m from 🙂
It is a product of the Philipines! I had no idea you were from there. You learn something new every day! 🙂
Coconut Jam with Chocolate?!?!? Are you kidding me…
My sister was talking about this the other day and shes been looking everywhere for it 🙂
You are a superstar thank you.
Great post – I love Tilda rice, not tried their rice with pulse though.
