Flavoured scones - a Bakers Delight Giveaway!

Thanks to the good people at Keep Left PR and Bakers Delight, I recently received a delivery of Bakers Delight's new flavoured scones to my workplace. Just in time for our Friday team meeting, I served them up to my food-loving and willing colleagues to sample.

The 2 flavours we tried were the date scone and the apple strudel scone.

There was resolute consensus in regards to which of the two was best - the date scone. Although an interesting flavour combination, there was debate as to whether or not the apple strudel scone could in fact be considered a scone in the true sense of the word due to its moist and dense texture. Oh how I love my workmate 'guinea pigs', as I call them - they are quite the connoisseurs!

    My favourite type of scone is the kind fresh out of the magic oven of an old and kindly elderly woman. There is just something about homebaked goods, perhaps the history behind the recipe or the secret ingredient, which makes it so much more special. It transforms even the most basic and plain scones into something delightful!

    my favourite is the saltana one. Nice and simple. But the best of them all.

    Bakers delight did a Passion fruit and white chocolate scone which was absolutely gorgeous. That flavour has remained my favourite. I have a recipe that I want to try that I am told is similar but I am sure Bakers Delight have a secret twist.

    Please bring back the Passion fruit and White Chocolate Scone Bakers Delight!! PLEASE!!

    I have been avoiding BD because I'm scared that once I start I won't stop. My favourite was their chocolate scones! Who doesn't love chocolate? Chocolate + scones = deliciousness =)

    Our favorite scones are the homemade sort.. the ones which are made together with love! We have scones often, just plain or sometimes add saltanas but either way its something my kids will remember doing with their mummy for years to come!

    I like scones with lots of jam and clotted cream while drinking earl grey tea.
