Hello Christmas friends,

I love a little sneak peek and grocery store Christmas foods always excite me. The possibilities and menu options seem to be endless and I love to mix and match items from various stores. Today we’re looking at good ol’ Tesco.

I’ve had to do my scouting on the internet to find out what’s available but one of these days, since The Best Christmas Yet is THE place on the internet for all things Christmas related, I will be invited to all the sneak peek events in July. But for now, I will have to play Inspector Gadget and do my own sleuthing.

Let’s start with some appetizers.

These TESCO FINEST TRUFFLE MAC & CHEESE balls are a must for all mac & cheese lovers and will be available from 11 October. They’re nuggets of truffle infused mac & cheese rolled in crispy breadcrumbs and a pack of 12 will set you back £4.

Cheese? Yes please! Available on 15 November, this TESCO FINEST BAKING BRIE with festive fruits like fig and citrus peel, walnuts and brandy glaze will be sure you go to bed on Christmas eve with visions of sugar plums dancing in your head. Anyone else get crazy cheese dreams? This gorgeous looking delight will set you back a mere £6 and would be very welcome on a festive buffet.

Move over stuffing balls and make way for a stuffing wreath! TESCO FINEST PORK, DARK CHEERY & SMOKED CHESTNUT STUFFING GARLAND £6 available from 22 November is sure to be a crowd pleaser.

This pork based wreath is made with pork, port, smoked chestnuts, dark cherries, dates, orange zest and herbs and will have your family thinking you slaved all day in a hot kitchen. It serves 10 people, looks fantastic and proves you don’t have to work hard if you work smart this Christmas.

Moving on to puddings…

Anybody else love a little bit of speculoos? Affectionately known in our house as hairdresser biscuits? Tesco is doing a £4 SPECULOOS PROFITEROLE GATEAU that promises to get your tastebuds going gaga.

It’s a a speculoos spiced sponge layered with sauce and topped with profiteroles and topped with more crunchy speculoos. Sounds like a winner to me.

Available 1 November.

I couldn’t find any info about that cute as can be rudolph cake in the background but keep your eyes open for him to delight the kids.

Let us feast our eyes upon this glimmering gold pudding for a moment.

Tesco has pulled out a showstopper this year with this BLACKFOREST CHRISTMAS PUDDING that’s packed with fruit, cherries and chocolate chunks.

For those free from customers, never fear, Tesco free from is here!

TESCO FREE FROM CARAMEL FLAVOUR CHOC SMASH BAUBLE is filled with white and milk chocolate buttons and looks like a kid friendly treat. I’m wondering if I can find a mug big enough because that looks like it will make a wicked hot chocolate!

TESCO FINEST FREE FROM CHRISTMAS PUDDING is a matured Christmas pudding with boozy brandy-soaked cherries infused with cider. It’s another yes from me.

I went and saved the very best for last. If you’re anything like me, you love a little bit of Baileys at Christmas, but look what I found!

Tesco has upped their game this TESCO FINEST GINGERBREAD LATTE CREAM LIQUEUR that is available in stores RIGHT NOW!

What have you got your beady eye on from the Tesco range this year?
