Thoughts from a happy customer, husband Simon.
Well, to be perfectly honest, I was somewhat sceptical. Wasn't sure what to expect, seems as though I am perhaps known for my sweet tooth... no it's ok, it's true, I can admit it.
Firstly it looks fantastic, if looks were anything to go by, it'd be a hit anyway. I have to say it was delicious! And what was that you say... healthy! Wow. I would recommend anybody to give this a try, a really light desert without the bloated, uncomfortable feeling afterwards. There might be something in this healthy eating stuff!! ;-)
