The best breakfast experience | Black Milk Cereal Cafe

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I agree with this saying which is why I have another breakfast inspired post on the blog. If you are a lover of cereal I think you will enjoy this place...

 Black Milk Cereal Dive is Manchester's very own cereal cafe situated in the Northern Quarter of Manchester in Affleck's Palace. I had enviously eyed their Instagram page for a while, with the incredible array of edible bowls and cereals to the vast amount of sugary toppings to curb any sweet tooth, I knew I had to go and experience it for myself and I was not disappointed.

I opted for Reese's puffs, chocolate Lucky Charms and Cookie Crisp, topped off with marshmallows, M&M's, white jazzles, all covered in salted caramel sauce, served with the cutest mini bottle of milk. The combination was delicious and of course I went for the edible chocolate bowl, however sadly I didn't manage to finish this. The actual cafe was a lot smaller than I imagined with only about 6 tables in the whole place, however this made the experience a lot more cosy and welcoming. The whole idea of a cereal cafe is such a great fun and novelty idea and with so many more yummy combinations to try I will definitely be making another visit.

Have you guys ever been to a cereal cafe? Would you fancy it?

Raw Cacao and Peanut Butter Bites

I have become a little bit obsessed with Deliciously Ella recently, I have been trying to eat healthier and she has really inspired me with her healthy and raw, yet amazingly delicious recipes. One thing I struggle with when trying to eat healthy is chocolate, I am a huge chocolate lover and find it difficult to curb my sweet tooth. Raw Cacao bites might just be my answer, they are rich-tasting, satisfy my cravings and are soo much better for you than a chocolate bar. Raw Cacao is full of the good stuff and is packed with nutrients and anti-oxidants, amazing right! They are also super simple and easy to make. This is my take and adaption of one of Deliciously Ella's recipes as I didn't have all the ingredients but I still think these taste yummy. Enjoy!

2tbsp Raw Cacao Powder
1 cup of Dates
1tbsp Peanut Butter(optional)
2tbsp Almond Nut Butter
3 Tbsp water

Blend all the ingredients in a food processor
Roll out and form balls 
Easy Peasy

I hope you enjoyed this post, has anyone tried Raw Cacao themselves, what do you think?
