Cinco De Mayo

The Aztecs were first to use cocoa beans. They enjoyed a drink where cocoa beans and water were mixed with cornmeal, hot pepper and spices. To honour this and celebrate Cinco de Mayo we have Aztec Chocolate fudge. Our smooth chocolate fudge is mixed with hot pepper and cinnamon, giving three stages of flavour – cinnamon first quickly followed by chocolate, then finishing with a hit of hot pepper.

In gourmet foods we have a few different options to add a bit of mexican flair to your meals. Gourmet du Village offers guacamole, spicy bean, salsa and, salsa con queso dip mixes as well as a black bean and corn salsa  which make a great addition to chips and vegetables. Additionally, we have a sweet chilli chutney which is not only good as a brie cheese topping but also as a sauce for shrimp and mozzarella. In drinks we have kahlua and cream coffee and spicy mexican hot chocolate.

Any of these treats will add some spice to your day.
