Posted on

23 May 2017

Good news: The world has finally found its worthy replacement of the unicorn trend and has moved onto the very dark, very black — charcoal trend.

This new trend is the perfect antithesis of all things magical, and glittery.

Made for those with a little dark soul hidden inside, this pitch black flavour is hybridising with almost all kinds of food. While charcoal burgers have been around for quite some time now, charcoal lattes, ice creams and bread are the latest goth items on the block.

2017 has been a sushi-successful year.

The Internet has been pretty intense about this delightful Japanese cuisine BUT it's time to forget all sushi trends you might have scrolled through in the past weeks and behold the shoe-shi.

Sushi is our eternal love and how do you test love?

You try something new, different and exotic. You come out with fond memories or hard-learned lessons, either way: You win. We’ve tested our love for sushi time and again — sushi burritos, fruit sushi, sushi corn-dogs and most recently – sushi doughnuts.

A seemingly contrasting yet equally tempting concept, sushi doughnuts are basically sushi rolls shaped like doughnuts.

Let’s face it — eating raw veggies is boring. And things are especially gruelling if you’re a fan of everything meaty.

11 April 2017

Food mashups are trending so we’re onto them. Most of them are made-for-Instagram; drool-worthy to look at but not so great in taste. The best kind, however, is the one that brings the best of two dishes together like — ice cream tacos.

This ice cream dessert takes summer eating to a whole new level of coolness. The taco shell is replaced with cone waffles and instead of ground beef filling, you get rolled scoops of sweet perfection — in whichever flavour you like.
