It’s Christmas season, the weather is colder, and all I want is something delicious. Honestly, I am not one for thinking ‘you can eat more at Christmas than you can at any other time’ as I believe that you can eat delicious food, all year round, but I do crave Terry’s that bit more at Christmas. Making the biscuit dough is really quite simple, as a basic shortbread is only three ingredients, and with the cocoa powder and orange added in, it’s still really simple. You have to make the dough, and roll it out onto a lightly floured surface and roll! Overall, these aren'tbad and I'm sure they'll go down a storm over the festive season if you like salty caramel flavours. They certainly make a nice alternative to the usual Mint and Orange Matchmakers. But they're a bit too much for me personally.

Giving it a little more pizzazz I gave them a drizzle of chocolate, and a segment on each cookie – but that was just me loosing the plot slightly. Not even slightly essential, but damn tasty. Heaven in every bite. HEAVEN. I suppose the 6 feet might be useful if you were.... Errrrm, Ummmm, in case you errrr... Nope I can't think of a single reason for the feet, other than to minimise the matchmaker holding ability of the tray. FareShare South West has stepped up in a crisis to bridge the food gap caused by Covid-19, and through sales of these mothership kits, we can offer further support during this challenging time for so many.”We all know that I am completely and utterly obsessed, and I genuinely doubt that it will ever change. Imagine dunking one of these into a Terry’s hot chocolate! I really should give that a go… OK. Can I just point out that this is yet another brand that thinks nobody will notice if they fill up more space on the box with non-product-holding plastic. Such as the partition along the centre of the tray, or the 6 "feet" on the bottom. Poundland is also going to be selling a host of old school biscuit bars, such as Breakaways, Clubs, and Wagon Wheel's but all of the major supermarkets already sell these.

Gravitational Galaxy, a white chocolate glazed doughnut featuring a salted caramel frosting, chocolate cake and four chunks of Galaxy caramel. Home Alone with my Toblerone, a milk chocolate-dipped doughnut, rolled in Lotus crumb then drizzled with Lotus spread. Anyway! I was craving shortbread the other day, and normally I would go for a plain shortbread recipe and add whatever flavouring I fancied however on this occasion, I wanted to make something a bit different and chocolate based! The Match Made, a combination of milk and white chocolate topped with milk chocolate butter cream, two salted caramel Matchmakers and a Malteser.Since April this year, we’ve donated over 40,000 pies to this incredible charity but the need for donations has never been greater,” said Jon Simon, Pieminister co-founder and managing director. I can't say I loved the flavour, but it's certainly a nice change from the norm of Orange or Mint and gives you the warm gingery spiciness you may be craving at this time of year (or rather, later in the year!). All in all, these are ok and I'll eat them at Christmas if offered but I still prefer Orange or Mint a lot more. Opening the box they had a super strong butterscotch-like aroma, so strong there was no way it can be natural. It's so overpowering.

It’s Not Terry’s, It’s Yours!, a milk chocolate-coated doughnut, capped with a ring of orange cream, three Terry’s segments and lashings of white chocolate.

In 2008, Nestlé rebranded Matchmakers as 'Quality Street Matchmakers', Quality Street also being a Nestlé brand. They are still available in 'Zingy Orange', 'Cool Mint' and 'Yummy Honeycomb' flavours. Put a few mint matchmakers among the orange matchmakers and watch your family go from contentment to puzzled.

I gave it a go, and they were delicious. However, I felt like the recipe was missing something – I wanted them to be MORE chocolate orange themed. Therefore, these beauties were born. A chocolate shortbread biscuit flavoured with orange, studded with terry’s chocolate orange chunks. I noticed Cinabar had these new Matchmakers Salted Caramel squirrelled away. She knows it doesn't usually work if she tries to hide caramel flavoured chocolates away from me. As usual these Matchmakers were produced by the Nestle brand of Quality Streets. It's rare that I don't like salted caramel flavoured chocolate treats. I do usually like anything flavoured with salted caramel, but one brand that I recently tried hadn't mixed the salt in with the caramel, and I was left with tiny bits of salt in between my old teeth for ages afterwards. In 2022 the 'Salted Caramel', 'Gingerbread' and 'Maple & Pecan' flavours have all been withdrawn and 'Yummy Honeycomb' and 'Coffee' flavours have returned with the name changing due to merging 'Coffee' and 'Salted Caramel' flavours to Caramel Coffee and cutting the name to Honeycomb. In 2017, before Matchmakers reached its 50th anniversary, Matchmakers became available in a new limited edition 'Salted Caramel' flavour, and from the 50th anniversary in October 2018 another limited edition flavour of ' Gingerbread'. September 2019 saw another limited edition flavour's appearance in a sky blue box called 'Maple & Pecan'. [2]
