The festive season always calls for two desserts on December 25, catering to those who aren’t fans of the rich flavours of Christmas pudding.
offers a variety of festive treats that are perfect for those who prefer something different.
The Luxury Ultimate Raspberry and Vanilla Macaron Wreath, priced at £10, is an excellent choice for a light dessert after a hearty Christmas roast. It’s easy to prepare – just defrost and serve.
Despite being frozen, it looked stunning, I was surprised by how well it had held up.

For a fun dessert that kids will love, the Luxury White Chocolate Melting Snowman for £8 is a great pick.

While it may seem like an ideal dessert for children, don’t limit yourself – the sponge is airy with a rich dark sugar flavour.
