There's a little history with this one.

There's a regional food called Staffordshire (or Derbyshire) oatcakes. I've grown up eating staffs oatcakes all my life. They're made in Stoke-on-Trent...
Recipe - Traditional Staffordshire Oatcakes

So when I spotted Stoke oatcake chocolate just had to try it. It's chocolate made with oats for the milk component.

I've not tried it yet. Being gluten free, my mother is wanting to participate as well.

I’d have had that wrapper off before I’d made it back to the car.

Can’t wait to see what you (and your mum) think.

Are they like Scottish oatcakes?

Depends if your arse is in it!

So if you are wearing your clothes, I guess it's both!

I bought puff pastry, butter, sausage meat, split peas, artichokes, courgettes (zucchini), cucumber, sage, thyme, oregano, white cheese, frozen peas and a bar of Lindt chocolate.
Tomorrow I'm making samosas, sausage rolls and vadas - all to be frozen for the 12th July (grandson's baptism).
He's not getting any chocolate - that's for me
