Crisps are the staple savoury snack for buffets, parties and family get togethers. With Coronation parties being planned up and down the country you can guarantee that the nation will be chomping on crisps throughout the festivities. Crunchy and packed full of flavour they go with pretty much everything from sandwiches, cheese or even a pint.

I’m in charge of the buffet for The Review Studio Coronation party so was really pleased to receive a couple of bags of Tyrrells crisps, the regal sounding Coronation Chicken and the Tomato & Chilli Chutney flavour.

The Coronation Chicken crisps have been relaunched as a limited edition to commemorate the Coronation of King Charles III. Packaged in celebratory packaging featuring plenty of colourful Union Jack flags, the crisps are made with the finest potatoes and hand cooked & spun for exquisite taste. Combining roast chicken with a subtle curry kick these crisps are nice and crunchy and incredibly moreish! I’m not always a huge fan of spicy crisps as I find that they can be a little strong but the bite of the curry was perfect and really complemented the roast chicken flavour without being overpowering.

With a RRP of £2.75 the 150g bags are currently available in Booths, Waitrose, Tesco, Asda and WHSmith Travel and will be available at BP from 2nd May.

The brand new Tomato & Chilli Chutney flavour crisps have a warm chilli flavour with a hint of smokiness. These crisps are packed full of flavour with a perfect crunch and are the perfect addition to any picnic or Coronation party this summer.

The 150g bags have a RRP of £2.75 and are currently available from Asda and Waitrose and look out for them in Tesco from 21st March.

Fox’s Party Rings Choc Minis

I have a very sweet tooth so was really pleased when Fox’s Biscuits asked if we would like to try their new Party Rings Choc Minis.

It’s funny how food can stir up memories – whenever I see Party Rings it takes me right back to my childhood, visiting my Grandma, where the biscuit tin in the pantry was always full of Party Rings – well, at least it was when we arrived…….

The thing I like most about Party Rings is the satisfying crunch when you bite into them and these mini Party Rings are just as crunchy as the original biscuits. The choc minis are lovely and chocolatey and great for snacking on.

I love the individual bags of party rings, they contain just the right amount of biscuits for a cheeky afternoon snack and at only 92 calories per mini bag will stave off the hunger without piling on the pounds.

I like to keep a few packets in my bag for emergency snacks, on the pretext they are for the children but in reality I might just keep them all for myself!!!
