My Kendal mint cake just arrived!

[ashes1627]

Hello. The Kendal Mint cake I ordered on sunday has arrived! I love the stuff, so I ordered 42 40g bars and 100 little 10g bars (individually wrapped). This post is just to say how happy I am that it arrived.

Not yet, although I am hoping to do so later on in the year, when I have some free time on my hands.

That's 2.68kg of tooth rot, just wondering how long will that last you??

I have a bar of that here that I havn't tried yet; certainly something I am looking forward to!

WOW! and I thought I had a problem with the stuff, but I have never bought over two kilos of the stuff!!!

glad to know that I'm not the only one with a problem

I've never tried it! I'll have to get a bar and give it a go.

Ahh. I've just told my daughter we'll have to try making our own. I'll go on a trawl.
(we bought two 2Kg bars when we were down in the Lakes last year)

Just stumbled on this old BBC page http://www.bbc.co.uk/cumbria/content/articles/2005/04/02/mint_cake_feature.shtml

I wonder if they'll do a marmite version?

 

[GordonM]

Thanks seatarp. I always see it as an item for survival kit / food stores. So it is more of a mint candy than what we (over here) think of as cake.

Oh you poor Americans - not knowing the delights of Kendal Mint Cake!
Not cake as you know it (nor as in a cake of soap! nor as in caked in filth!)...melt in the mouth sweet mintyness and then more minty sweetness with a hint of...sweet...and mint...that melts in your mouth
Sheer tooth decay in a minty sweetness
OK - I now have raided my BOB and emptied it of Kendal Mint cake!
So much for the diet!

I love the chocolate coated bars Mmmmmmmm.............

Made a batch of the milk version this evening. It's bloody lovely... Not sure if it will even last tomorrow, ah well, we have plenty of sugar in to make some more.
