Three delicious ways to recreate the flavour of caramelised biscuits

Three delicious ways to recreate the flavour of caramelised biscuits

The Suna day ago

BRITAIN'S gone crazy for the flavour of caramelised biscuits.
From market leader Biscoff to own-brand supermarket products, you can get the sweet taste in ice creams, cookies, cheesecakes, sponge puds and – increasingly – in liquid form.

Enjoy the treats for less with these sweet ideas . . .
DRINK UP: Dunking may have had its day. Instead, enjoy that biscuit taste as part of the drink itself.
For a Biscoff latte, stir a tablespoon of spread into a quarter cup of strong coffee, then top with hot milk.
For a more decadent drink, add whipped cream. For a cooler treat, blend a scoop of ice cream with half a cup of milk, a ripe banana and then a heaped tablespoon of Biscoff spread.
SUPER SPREADERS: The main ingredient for these tastes can come from a 400g jar of Biscoff, down from £3.35 to £2.60 at Waitrose. You could also try Asda's caramelised biscuit spread for £1.99.
As well as eating it on toast, you can make chocolate chip cookies, putting a dollop of the spread on top of the cookies before baking.
For brownies, make your usual recipe and pour half the batter into the tin. Put random teaspoons of Biscoff spread over the mixture then cover with the rest of the batter.
Make DIY Biscoff ice cream by stirring swirls of the spread into low-cost vanilla ice cream. You could crumble some of the biscuits on top, too.
UP YOUR GAME: A pack of caramelised biscuits can be used for next level desserts.
They are a triumph in no-bake cheesecakes, using crushed Biscoff instead of digestives in the base. Whisk a couple of heaped tablespoons of the spread into the topping mixture, too.

They also transform a tiramisu. Use a double layer of biscuits instead of sponge fingers.
Dip in coffee before using them to cover the bottom of a dish. Spoon over mascarpone whipped with cream and top with grated chocolate.

Sir David's VERY strong connection with King Charles and how he's defied merciless ribbing from close friends and even his wife to revel in his new found status as Lord Becks of Great Tew

It might come as something of a surprise to learn that, alongside the trophies and football shirts that grace the walls of his £10 million Cotswolds mansion, one of David Beckham 's most prized possessions is a simple walking stick. Hand-carved in wood, with the head of a pheasant as its handle, he uses it every weekend during his long walks across their estate in Great Tew, Oxfordshire.

Wealthy families desperate to fill shelves so they appear well-read are snapping up books by the metre

Bookshelves in luxury homes are being filled with envy-inspiring collections – which will never be read by their owners. Specialist wholesalers have long sold books intended only for decorative purposes to hotel chains and film set designers. But these companies have seen a growing trend in wealthy homeowners buying vintage and award-winning books by the metre in a bid to make their homes look more sophisticated. Experts say a well-stocked bookcase has become a symbol of a 'luxury lifestyle' and being well-educated. It comes amid a growing trend driven by social media, with 11.8 million posts across Instagram and TikTok under the hashtag #bookshelf. Lauren Giles, founder of Curated Books, told The Mail on Sunday: 'So few of us have time to read any more, so having a well-stocked bookshelf has become a way of signalling that you have the luxury of time. 'It's an indicator of a high-end lifestyle, as well as giving people credibility and making them appear intellectual.' Her business, based in West Sussex, sells everything from vintage Pelican paperbacks for £79 per metre, to antique leather-bound tomes costing between £330 and £990 per metre. She has seen a 'huge shift' and now around a third of her customers are interior designers working for private buyers, including celebrities and MPs. Ms Giles said: 'Only about 5 per cent of my clients are actually interested in reading the books. For most people, it's about the aesthetics or to help create a good impression.' Sue Williams, co-founder of London-based Books By Metre, has also seen a rise in requests. Her company covers old books with new dust jackets to match a colour scheme. She said: 'More people like the idea of having lots of books around. But it's about filling the shelves to match a scheme, usually [our customers] are not intending to read them.' Interior design lecturer Hannah Soulsby, who founded design firm Anima & Amare, regularly buys books to improve the aesthetics of a room. Ms Soulsby said: 'Being able to buy a bulk load of books that match a specific colour scheme makes life much easier. 'Only you and the [home] owner know the books aren't going to be read, but when people walk into the room they are pleasantly surprised because books make a space look much more aesthetically pleasing.'
