Gifts for Valentine’s Day – The Review Studio

Valentine’s Day falls on a Wednesday this year so instead of going out we’re planning a cosy night in with a good film and plenty of popcorn. Since discovering Joe & Seph’s gourmet popcorn I must admit we’ve become “popcorn snobs” and supermarket popcorn doesn’t get a look in anymore! Joe & Seph’s have an amazing selection of flavoured popcorn and we eagerly await the limited editions that are launched throughout the year for special occasions. The latest flavours to land on our doorstep were the Valentine’s collection which consists of three delicious flavours, Rose Chocolate, White Chocolate & Strawberry and Caramel Macchiato & Whiskey.

Joe & Seph’s make their popcorn in small batches using only the finest, natural ingredients which means all their popcorn is packed full of flavour. All the popcorn is lovely and crispy and covered in a delicious indulgent coating which makes it the perfect choice for a Valentine’s Day treat.

The White Chocolate & Strawberry air popped popcorn is a real treat for the tastebuds, when you pop it in your mouth you first taste the smooth caramel before getting a white chocolate hit which is then followed by a delicious fruity strawberry taste. It is light in colour with pink flecks and incredibly moreish so be warned!!

The Rose Chocolate popcorn is perfect for chocoholics. The rose flavour works well with the chocolate and reminds me of Turkish Delight. The popcorn is light and crispy and goes incredibly well with a sparkling rose wine!

The Caramel Macchiato and Whisky Gourmet popcorn isn’t one I would have chosen myself as I’m not a whisky lover, but I was pleasantly surprised with this popcorn, the combination of smooth cream, Columbian coffee and Scotch whisky works incredibly well together and as it’s not as sweet as the other popcorn was my husband’s favourite of the three.

The 80g pouches contain 4 servings and the pouch is resealable, Once opened it’s recommended that the popcorn is eaten within 5 days – I’ve never been able to check out the freshness after 5 days though as it never lasts that long in our house!!

RRP £4

The nights are certainly chilly at the moment and with temperatures outside regularly dropping below freezing I have been very glad of my Belledorm Heat Holders Luxury Fleece bedding.

The bedding is available in four stylish colours, Snowfall, Moonrock, Navy and Antique Silver and the velvety, inviting texture is not only lovely and cosy but has a TOG rating of 1.7, giving additional warmth on those chilly nights without sacrificing on style.

The duvet cover not only looks great it is simple to put on thanks to the hand holes at the top corners of the duvet cover which makes changing the bed a doddle. I’m sure I’m not alone in getting frustrated with the amount of hassle it is to put a duvet cover on and I was pleasantly surprised with the ease with which the Heat Holders duvet cover goes on, putting an end to my weekly fight with the duvet cover!!

The Belledorm Heat Holders Luxury Fleece Duvet Set is made of 100% polyester which and best washed at 30 degrees. I’ve washed it a couple of times and due to the fleeciness of the fabric it needs little in the way of ironing to stay crease-free and smooth.

Being cosy and comfortable in bed is extremely important and helps you to have a good night’s sleep, this duvet cover is incredibly warm and cosy and I’ve slept really well since I started using it – it’s also great for snuggling up in on cold, snowy days too!

Available in single to super king sizes the duvet set has a RRP starting at £85 but I’ve just spotted they are currently half price so get one quick!
