Hi all, bit of promo for a friend if that is ok- if not let me know and I will remove.

My friend's brother started a raw cake business a couple of years ago- Mr Pempys. Thought it might be of interest as many of the items are vegan (all but one of the cakes are- one has bee pollen in it) and it is a small business working hard to make good food and source ingredients ethically.

He does make chocolate which is not vegan and as above uses bee pollen in one cake- not sure if this is a deal-breaker.

If not you can contact him through his website or visit them at the various food markets that they attend throughout the week.

I can vouch for the tastyness of the cakes- absolutely lovely.

Wow, everything looks pretty amazing and don't worry if not everything is vegan, as long as some of it is, we don't care!

don't worry if not everything is vegan, as long as some of it is, we do cake!

Tsk, tsk, Johnny, two mistakes in one sentence. I've fixed that for you. :)

Looking forward to seeing everybody in a bit.

Haha, thanks Oliver, see you soon.

I'm here guys

Also here. Hungry hungry.

Good to meet @samwell and @Oliver Schick tonight, food was bloody great

Oh damn sorry I missed this. Trust you guys had good eats and chats. I'll be there for the next. Maybe a ride as well incorporated. Peace

I've seen @ioreka eat these and I snack on them as they are dairy free, they have a special 20% discount this month on a mixed box of Nakd Nibbles and Bars. 18 in total for £11.99 with free delivery.

Nakd bars are currently in the penny sell at holland and barrett (Buy one for 99p and get another for 1p).

Yeah my workmate just told me this. Still ordered the above as it's the ones I like, my local H&B has a shit selection.

Bakewell Tart for the victory

Yeah, my local one doesn't have that! Crucial purchase decision.

H&B acting like dicks: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-35347578

I'll second that!

Christmas pus is also a firm favourite.
Think Vgean Joesph is going for the sponser deal..

Any good? Still haven't found a great cheese sub

I didn't think Daiya lived up to the hype when I tried it, kind of chalky... similar texture to cheezly :( Didn't try all the varieties and maybe we should have grilled it more or something but was a little disappointed. Taco Bus had good vegan cheese but I don't know what it was.

Don't mind violife occasionally (bit plastic-y) or mozzarisella. Made some cashew soft cheese which was super tasty but not really suitable for pizza or something...

Yeah it's good.

It's not as incredible as everyone makes out but definitely one of the better vegan cheeses. It works best in toasties and melted on Pizza. It's just a shame you can't buy it in the UK.

Have you tried any of the Vegusto cheeses? I think they're pretty good, but then again I probably can't actually remember what real cheese tastes like.

Got a recipe?
