A Good Shoe Day

in Product Reviews

A few weeks back I was contacted by a PR company asking me to review an Interflora Mothers Day gift.

I was sent the Biscuiteers Shoe Box – a lovely gift set of tea cup and glitzy shoe shaped chocolate biscuits all nestled in a decorative tin. For the shoe lover they really are an interesting gift, but, I hasten to add that I feel they are an accompaniment to  another gift item such as some flowers, though, happen I just like to spoil my mum.

The biscuits are very deep in chocolate flavour, it is obvious good quality cocoa has been used and they are decorated incredibly well. Not too hard and crunchy or too soft and cloying, these shoes are a delight to eat with the obligatory cuppa in the lovely shoe cup.

So with Mother’s Day just around the corner, perhaps we’d all best get shopping :)

Minnie I’m sorry I have no idea about the date on them – it was on the actual biscuit wrapper rather than the tin and that has long since gone in the bin.
They’d make a great gift for a foodie friend I’m sure, maybe, more than they would a good Mothers Day gift.
