Easter<br />
Easter Feast<br />
From hot cross donuts and other sweet treats,<br />
to how to cook the perfect Easter Sunday<br />
lunch, we speak to the people in the know<br />
when it comes to delicious treats this Easter<br />
Hot Cross Donuts are top of the menu at George’s Bakery for<br />
Easter this year! They have all of the spice and fruit of a normal<br />
hot cross bun but are deep fried instead of toasted and rolled<br />
in spiced sugar and filled with apricot jam. A traditional Easter<br />
favourite at George’s stall, they were one of his first creations<br />
when he started markets in spring 2015. They will be available<br />
from 25th <strong>March</strong> - 15th April with limited supply, so be sure to<br />
be at the market early!<br />
Other Easter bakes will include Ely Sloe Gin with cherry and<br />
chocolate simnel cake, the gooey Crème Egg brownies and<br />
seasonal quiches will include lamb, pea and mint quiche and<br />
asparagus, pea, broad bean and ricotta quiche.<br />
Hot Cross Donuts<br />
More notable bakes to look for include cronuts in salted caramel,<br />
chocolate hazelnut and other seasonal flavours, plus George’s<br />
most popular cakes: the towering salted caramel layer cake,<br />
maple syrup and bacon cake and the indulgent chocolate cookie<br />
dough cake.<br />
George’s stall will be at Ely and St.Ives Farmers Markets as well<br />
as Cambridge market every Sunday.<br />

Chocolat Chocolat<br />
“We love Easter, and so do our customers” says Isabelle Chappell<br />
Chocolatier and owner of Cambridge’s very own Chocolat<br />
Chocolat, on St Andrews’s Street, Cambridge.<br />
Although it’s a small shop inside you will find an enormous<br />
range of chocolate to suit all tastes and budgets from pocket<br />
money treats to hampers perfect for sharing. This Easter will be<br />
no different and Isabelle is planning to offer one of the widest<br />
ranges of Easter treats in Cambridgeshire.<br />
“We will be making our own Easter eggs plaques again this year<br />
because our customers loved them so much, some of them have<br />
already popped in to the shop and ordered theirs already” said<br />
Isabelle, explaining that the plaques are handmade from luxury<br />
chocolate and can be customised with your favourite toppings or<br />
can even have a hand written message piped in chocolate.<br />
There will also be a wide range of Easter eggs all made with the<br />
finest Belgian chocolate, starting from under a £1, there will be a<br />
tasty Easter gift to suit all.<br />
Isabelle is determined to look after every customer and for<br />
the last few years she has stocked a range of Easter treats<br />
suitable for those with dietary needs and unable to share normal<br />
chocolate eggs. Chocolat Chocolat will be stocking a wide range<br />
of specialist Easter treats: sugar free, dairy free, gluten free and<br />
nut free perfect for those who need to avoid specific ingredients,<br />
but still love the taste of luxury chocolate.<br />
The shop will also be running chocolate courses over the Easter<br />
weekend, when budding chocolatiers will be able to learn how to<br />
make handmade truffles spending over two hours learning from<br />
an expert just easy it is to make luxury chocolates at home.<br />
At Chocolat Chocolat Easter comes in all shapes and sizes, but<br />
one thing is sure: it will be full of chocolatey fun.<br />
