Life Lessons (through the sticky lens of Black Treacle)

So I tried to make a healthy alternative to ice-cream from a recipe that called for a simple base of frozen pureed bananas. Add flavour of choice. Black treacle & poppyseed? Sounded sort of fitting for a grown-up dessert. Maybe it was because I used a hand-held blender instead of a KitchenAid, or maybe it was just that frozen pureed bananas taste like frozen pureed bananas. When it comes to the crunch, desserts are meant to be naughty. Lessons learned.* Either way, I had fun taking this picture of sticky, seductive treacle!




*One thing I'll never learn: baked goods straight out of the oven will burn my tongue.

Love this picture! and love that they still make some foods with beautiful packaging and treacle is so so good. Wish I had some!

This is a cool picture, but I don't know what is treacle? The dessert however...sounds delish!

i know, the retro label packaging is pretty hip!

treacle is sort of like a bitter thick syrup, a bit like very gooey, dark honey. Treacle tart is one of the best desserts!
