Lotus Bakeries Launches Biscoff & Go In The UK

You can eat apples on the go, you can eat bananas on the go, you can eat pears on the go - but what if you don't want to eat a healthy fruit while moving?

Well, you could eat a Twirl, or a cheese twist... or you could treat yourself to some Biscoff & Go.

Lotus Bakeries

The new creation from Lotus Bakeries is basically like Dairylea Dunkers, except instead of the cheesy dip you get Biscoff Spread - which means the days of eating the spread with your stupid bare/bear hands like Winnie the Pooh are now a thing of the past.

The snack packs will roll out across the UK over the next couple of months and have a RRP of £1 ($1.25). They're also suitable for vegans and people with a dairy intolerance, and they contain no artificial colours or flavours.

Frances Booth, category marketing manager for Lotus Bakeries, described Biscoff & Go as 'the perfect snack'.

She said: "It all began with a little red biscuit and now we have become a three category brand, with the launch of Biscoff & Go rooting us firmly in the food-to-go market and driving sales in a new direction.

"We are delighted to introduce Biscoff & Go in the UK, so that our customers can enjoy the taste of Lotus Biscoff anytime, anywhere and in a handy 'dunk and go' format. Biscoff & Go is the perfect snack and another way in which retailers can benefit from the nation's continued obsession with the unique caramelised flavour of Lotus Biscoff."

While the snack does undeniably sound delightful, a little pot of spread and some dry breadsticks might not seem the most appealing in the current record-breaking temperatures we're enjoying/enduring.

However, if you still need to get your Biscoff fix somehow, then you could always get yourself some Biscoff ice cream, which launched in the UK earlier this year.

Alternatively, if you fancy giving yourself a challenge during this mind/groin-melting heatwave, you could always have a go at whipping up some Biscoff ice cream yourself.

The ingredients and method have been on their website for years, and if you wanna give it a bash, you will need the following: 14 oz. of concentrated milk, ¼ jar Lotus, Biscoff Cookie Butter, approximately 8-10 coarsely chopped Lotus Biscoff Cookies and 17 oz. heavy cream.

Once you've bought all that in, simply: "Beat condensed milk with Lotus Biscoff Cookie Butter in a bowl. Add the chopped cookies and mix well.

"Whip the heavy cream into a stable whipped cream. Gradually fold the whipped cream into the sweetened milk mixture until you get a smooth texture and pour it into a container suitable for freezing. Freeze for at least 4 hours and preferably overnight.

"Before serving, make balls using an ice cream scoop or a regular tablespoon and serve. You can store for up to a week in a sealed container in the freezer."

Good luck my sweaty comrades.
