When it comes to Christmas desserts, Waitrose always delivers – and this year is no different because the supermarket chain has just revealed the impressive array of sweet treats it will be offering up in December.
From a jaw-dropping vegan dessert, to a showstopping cheese centrepiece, and a giant version of a childhood treat, there's something for everyone. And, as always, Heston Blumenthal has been busy creating something very special to wow guests over the festive season.
Here are the Waitrose Christmas desserts we can't wait to tuck into...
Vegan Elderflower, Raspberry and Blackcurrant Jelly
This one is a bit of a showstopper, right?
Waitrose describes it as a 'pretty, jewel-coloured jelly studded with juicy raspberries and blackcurrants'. We're sure this will get guests talking.
Chocolate, Caramel and Vanilla Choux Wreath
Do you have a sweet tooth? You'll love this wreath to share.
It combines crisp choux pastry generously filled with vanilla cream and topped with Swiss chocolate fondant, white chocolate curls and salted caramel sauce.
Stilton with Berries
Waitrose says: 'Topped with candied orange, the white Stilton is studded with dried cranberries and blueberries'.
The Giant Jaffa Cake Dessert
Waitrose says: 'The Jaffa cake puts its party clothes on. Layers of airy chocolate and clementine mousse, chocolate cake, tangy clementine jelly and orange candy crush.'
Sugar Plum Cheesecake
Waitrose says: 'Sweet plums, honey & spiced ginger and a snowy dusting of sugar give the classic New York baked cheesecake a touch of Christmas magic.'
Cherry and Almond Topped Christmas Pudding
Waitrose says: 'Made with plump vine fruit, rum and brandy and topped with red, blonde and purple cherries and whole blanched almonds. Finished with a splash of Amaretto.'
Heston From Waitrose Fig and Port Cheesecake
You can always count on Heston Blumenthal to bring an unexpected twist to favourite festive dishes. This year it's with this fig and port cheesecake.
Waitrose says: 'Cheese and dessert courses curiously combine… This baked sour cream cheese cake with a tangy fig and port caramel centre sits on a buttery lemon shortbread "cheeseboard" base.'
