HelloFresh launches Father's Day menu with beer pairings

HelloFresh has released a new Father's Day menu off the back of research that shows that 57% of people find their dads tricky to buy for - and 46% of dads say they've received gifts they didn't want or use. Each dish on the menu has been paired with craft beers, from Thornbridge.
HelloFresh and Thornbridge are giving a few of those who order the new Father's Day menu the chance to win a crate of Thornbridge beers to enjoy with their meals. Any other HelloFresh customers looking to purchase Thornbridge can use the code 'HF20' for 20% discount off the paired range until June 30.
Birra Moretti is also celebrating Father's Day by offering a pairing to the HelloFresh Chorizo and Tomato Spaghetti with their Sale di Mare lager. A selection of customers who order this dish will receive a complimentary beer in-box.
Mimi Morley, Senior Recipe Development Manager at HelloFresh, said: 'We know that Father's Day can be tricky, but our new Father's Day menu gives our customers the means to create a delicious celebratory meal with minimal fuss or waste. We also understand most dads just want the opportunity to spend time with their family and what better way to do so than over a delicious, home-cooked meal.'
James Buchanan, General Manager for Thornbridge Brewery said: 'While wine is more commonly paired with food, craft beer can make a delicious accompaniment to any meal. The pine and citrus notes of our West Side Glory IPA, for example, balances the richness of HelloFresh's decadent mac and cheese and helps to refresh the palate between bites. We've worked closely with HelloFresh on its Father's Day menu and hope to inspire people to opt for craft beer over wine when celebrating Father's Day this year and beyond.'

Meal kit giant slammed after misleading customers

HelloFresh, the world's largest meal kit delivery company, has been ordered to pay $7.5 million in penalties. The penalty follows a lawsuit in Santa Clara County, California, which alleged HelloFresh misled customers into auto-renewing subscriptions and made them difficult to cancel. Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman emphasised that all companies must adhere to California's consumer protection laws, vowing aggressive enforcement against unfair subscription practices. Of the total settlement, $1 million will be distributed to eligible California consumers, with the remaining funds allocated to prosecuting agencies. HelloFresh, which accounts for 75 per cent of the US meal kit delivery market, denied any wrongdoing but stated it cooperated fully with California District Attorneys to resolve the matter amicably.

HelloFresh ordered to pay $7.5 million in penalties for making subscriptions difficult to cancel

HelloFresh, the world's largest meal kit delivery company, has been ordered to pay $7.5 million in penalties for making subscriptions difficult to cancel. A lawsuit filed in Santa Clara County alleged HelloFresh misled Californians into enrolling in auto-renewing subscriptions and failed to offer an easy way to cancel them. 'No company, no matter how big or well-known, is exempt from California's consumer protection laws,' Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman said in a statement Monday. 'We will aggressively pursue enforcement when businesses take advantage of consumers by failing to clearly disclose subscription terms, obtain proper consent, or provide a fair way to cancel. Consumers have a right to know what they're signing up for, and they deserve better,' he continued. While most of the settlement will be divided among prosecuting agencies, $1 million will be distributed to 'eligible California consumers,' according to a press release from the D.A.'s office. A HelloFresh spokesperson denied any wrongdoing in a statement to The Independent: 'We take our commitment to customer transparency very seriously, and our subscription model and cancellation policies have been consistently clear to customers throughout the whole customer journey.' 'While we deny any wrongdoing, we have cooperated fully with the coalition of California District Attorneys and have entered into a settlement agreement with them to resolve the matter amicably,' the spokesperson said. HelloFresh, based in Germany, makes up 75 percent of the U.S. meal kit delivery market. Consumers can personalize the kinds of recipes they want with options including 'Family Friendly' and 'Under 20 Minutes.' Based on their preferences, how many people they need to feed, and how many recipes they want per week, HelloFresh sets customers up with a plan and delivers the ingredients and recipes needed to make the meals. The lawsuit claimed HelloFresh failed to 'clearly and conspicuously' share its subscription terms before collecting payment, obtain customers' 'affirmative consent' before charging their cards, provide an acknowledgement with its subscription terms after payment and offer an 'easy-to-use mechanism' for canceling subscriptions, the D.A.'s press release said.

Shoppers spot hack to get 60% off 'fabulous' £36 afternoon tea for two

Afternoon Tea Week is the perfect occasion to indulge in a quintessential afternoon tea for two. Just in time, tea enthusiasts can relish sweet and savoury delights in a snug British pub or bar at a discounted price thanks to a money saving deal stack. Afternoon Tea Week, which has been running all week nationwide, encourages everyone to partake in Britain's favourite indulgence – a pot of tea accompanied by delicate sandwiches, fluffy scones and irresistible pastries. Originating in the 19th century, the humble 'high' tea is a tradition that blends elegance with indulgence that is perfect at any time of year. Coinciding with the event, Buyagift is currently offering a tempting deal giving afternoon tea for two for £35.99. However, savvy shoppers who register with a money saving website can enjoy the experience for less than £10 per person. TopCashback is giving a free £15 bonus to all new members upon signing up, followed by a percentage back on all qualifying purchases from thousands of retailers. For new members of TopCashback and all customers of Buyagift, the price is slashed to £14.39 - that's just £7.20 per person. Existing customers can also save money, with the deal reduced to £29.39 after cashback. Diners should act quickly though as the offer runs until 23:59 on 18th August. With a wide array of venues across the UK – including popular chains like Slug and Lettuce – there are 118 locations to cater to every preference, whether you're drawn to the cosy charm of a rustic countryside inn or the lively atmosphere of a city hotspot. Afternoon tea is on offer all year round, available any day of the week or from Sunday to Thursday at Slug and Lettuce, excluding Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, and New Year's Day. Each reservation allows guests two hours to savour their tea, and any dietary needs should be mentioned at the time of booking. This deal isn't the only way to indulge in afternoon tea throughout the year, with some offers allowing you to enjoy it from the comfort of your own home. Artisan bakery Cutter and Squidge provides an afternoon tea home delivery service starting at £29.99, which includes a picnic-ready set that's perfect for enjoying outdoors on a sunny day. For those who favour biscuits over cakes, luxury hamper experts Cartwright and Butler have introduced a £20 afternoon tea selection, overflowing with decadent biscuits and presented in a beautifully designed, keepsake tin. Meanwhile, home bakers seeking fresh inspiration - or a unique gift - can grab Wonderbly's newly launched illustrated personalised baking book brimming with recipes for scrumptious treats. An excellent choice for home bakers, each book contains tantalising (and unique) cake recipes and one very special bespoke recipe. But if you'd rather just eat cake at home rather than eat cake at home, a high street favourite has got your covered. Renowned for their premium nibbles, M&S also provides a delightful Afternoon Tea Letterbox Gift featuring an assortment of cakes, biscuits and tea bags, perfect for creating something truly special at home. Whilst the Buyagift website hasn't yet received any reviews for this afternoon tea offer, several shoppers have posted their opinions on the Virgin Experience website. One patron commented: "Fabulous afternoon tea which was delicious. The staff were amazing which made the experience even better. Highly recommend The Slug and Lettuce Oxford." Another customer remarked: "All amazing! Table was ready for us when we arrived, the food was excellent and very good service." A third visitor concurred, noting: "We had a warm welcome, friendly staff lovely atmosphere and a very tasty afternoon tea." Not every guest was entirely satisfied though. One disheartened diner posted a three-star review stating: "Limited on hot drinks due to coffee machine broken. Sandwiches were not the best." On the whole, most visitors relished their Afternoon Tea at the Slug and Lettuce, making the cashback offer with TopCashback even more appealing. Another five-star review concluded by saying: "Very enjoyable. The whole of the afternoon was a great time with great food and drink." How to secure the afternoon tea for less than £15 with TopCashback: Sign up as a new member at TopCashback for free via this link. Search for Buyagift on the site, click through and buy the item normally. Get £15 cashback when you spend £15 or more. The cashback will be tracked to the TopCashback 'Earnings page' within seven days of purchase.
