Aha, yes, we have lots of double cream.

There you go. I did an espresso lungo this time, but can make a pot of filter coffee next time, if you prefer.

Pass the remote. I need to adjust the angle of the electronically controlled sun umbrella.

Edited to add:
Now I've got to go get myself a cup! Lol

Ooooooh this is good.
 
The lovely people who volunteer on Sundays in the greenhouses of our local park.

The dog loves them. They love the dog. They do a fab job, and are such kind people.
 
My mums' favourite - Coffee walnut whip. Just found that M & S do them. Not seen them for years and years, not as big as they used to be but I managed to chop one in half (spare is wrapped in cling film and now in fridge) and luckily no spike after 2 hours.
Am I remembering correctly, I think they used to have a walnut in the bottom?

Ah I remember those from the late1970's, I thought they were quite decadent, being a youngster then and I used to treat myself to these when I started my first job, happy memories, thanks :D

On top no?

Yes there was one on top, but I have a dim memory of maybe one in the bottom?

To long ago to remember ...
 
There have been a number of flavours of Walnut Whip over the years, including coffee and maple flavours, but currently only vanilla is widely available. The original Walnut Whip contained a half-walnut placed inside the cone on the thick chocolate base, rather than on top. It was later marketed with an extra walnut on top, and subsequently the walnut inside was removed to leave one walnut outside .....https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walnut_Whip

They are so so tiny now, hardly enough to make a tooth filling :rolleyes:
 
All I could find was a mention of Duncan's walnut whips. I do love coffee flavoured foods, a big treat is coffee ice cream in a small tub, delicious.
The best one ever was in Paris, France a vendor right by the river, and I could eat the cone then, so yummy :happy: tummy is rumbling now o_O

Isn't it amazing what you can find out on Wikipedia? Obiously the walnut inside was removed as a cost cutting measure!
