However, it is also a time where it is crucial to keep up energy for both the mother and baby's benefit... I, for one have been stuck on gift ideas for friends who have had a new baby- especially when you know they will have a million baby grows already!!

Local Farmers Market Stall

Image
East Oxford Farmers Market Once a month we go to the East Oxford Farmers market and I think it is safe to say that our sweet treats were slightly 'alien' at first. However, recently we have had some great feedback from customers and also returning customers and have sold out the last two markets- YAY! For more info: https://www.eastoxfordmarket.org.uk/ Our little stall  Here are a few pictures of a new favourite- the vegan 'cheesecake'.  -The bottom is made from a mixture of dates, nuts, oats and coconut oil. -The middle is made from a blend of cashews, coconut cream, maple syrup and vanilla extract. -Finally, the top is made from fresh fruit for individual cheesecakes (yummy).

Easter Cookery Classes

Image
Week one Tuesday: On Tuesday we had great fun baking our own hot cross buns. Our hot cross buns contains yummy ingredients such as apple, cinnamon and raisins. We also substituted the sugar for coconut sugar which gave an extra caramel flavour. We also decorated our own boxes and painted easter eggs. Thursday: On Thursday we made some yummy chocolate Easter nests. To our chocolate mix we added cacao powder to enhance the chocolate flavour as well as adding some nutrients.  We had lots of fun and even got to eat some of the left overs!

Happy Pancake Day These pancakes feel like such a treat but are full of nutritious ingredients and can really satisfy that sweet tooth.

Ingredients (for three): 3 ripe bananas 100g oats 40g ground almonds (or just use more oats) 4 eggs 1 tsp of vanilla extract splash of milk 1 teaspoon of coconut oil Toppings: extra slices banana frozen berries honey nut butter (I used pip and nut or meridian) Method: 1) Put the oats in a food processor or blender and grind them down to a fine consistency (like flour) 2) Add bananas, almonds, eggs and vanilla then blend. 3) Add a splash of milk until the mixture is pour-able but not too thick. 4) Heat a pan with coconut oil and let it melt. 5) Use a large spoo...

New packaging

Image
Our Yummy Butter bean Chowder Since beginning our lunch deliveries, we have noticed that our packaging for our soups, curries and hotpots are not very aesthetically pleasing despite their microwavable benefits! We wanted packaging that would still be microwavable and tightly sealed for freshness. However, we also wanted it to look clean and professional with the use of quality packaging and labeling. Following our brown boxes for our salads, our brand identity has formed a naturalistic and rustic look. Hence, our use of brown Kraft labeling for our products.  We look forward to sharing these with our customers and continuing to develop the business. #health #healthy #healthyeating #natural #sweet #naturallysweet #naturallysweetoxford #food #refinedsugarfree #yum #oxford #oxfordshire #caterer #healthylunch #healthylunchoxford #oxfordfood #nutrition #nutritious #oxfordhorspath #horspath #horspathoxford #wheately #wheatleyoxford #oxfordwheatley #cowley #oxfordcowl...
