Frozen Food from Lidl, Halloween 2023

I saw in their freebie mewspaper that there were pumpkin puree and bacon frozen pizzas, and in payng a visit to get a couple of frozen pizzas, I found there wase a whole host of halloween frozen party food. I bought the various savoury options but there was also a frozen cake and also some doughnuts too.





I'm not too sure how I feel about eating chicken nuggets coated in some blackened crumb, and also the mini pizzas boasting that they are coated in a black sauce, but I guess I'll find out when I cook them for my party.

Waitrose Halloween 2023

The local Waitrose in Hythe may not be the largest Waitrose around but it did have a few Halloween goodies out. There were a few more decorations on the end of a neighbouring aisle and also some sweets too.

Folkestone's Old High Street

Walked down Folkestone's Old High Street today and saw a poster for a Halloween scavenger hunt that is happening... but next weekend (21st), probably timed due to half term for schools. I did this the other year and most of the shops had clues to find in their window displays. Good fun whatever your age.


Also the cake shop had a Zero (from the Nightmare Before Christmas) cake in their window. The Cake Junction create lavish cakes and the Beckhams have commissioned bespoke cakes from them over the years.

Ghost Pepper peanuts

I was given a packet of these on Monday... not something to leave of for the kids at a Halloween party!

Even more from Sainsburys 2023

The Park Farm store in Folkestone finally had its display out and I got to see the (almost) full display... there were some childrens books missing. So I havent included any real repetition and just showed the Nightmare Before Christmas items. But of note was the Cadburys marketing display above the sweets section.

Lidl Halloween 2023

The local out of town store had their usual fare. Some decorations, plenty of gummy sweets, including some rather nice looking eyeball sweets. Lidl is still doing its dried pasta in Halloween shapes (bat, pumpkin & witch) and noticable this year were a few paperback books that I hadn't seen before... but nothing to tempt me.

More from Sainsburys 2023

The smaller Sainsburys store in Folkestone had it's Halloween offering out when I popped in yesterday. It's obviously not their full range, but gave me a better idea of what they were putting out, since the Hythe store were in the process of setting up their display at the weekend.

Morrisons Halloween 2023

The Folkestone store has its display out for this year. Nothing to buy for me. Recently there have been some interesting masks and also games for sale, but it was a noticably smaller display this year. The childrens' torches were quite well designed though, and the plastic goats skull was beter than most similar props that I have seen.

Sainsburys Pumpkin Spiced Loaf

Finally got one! I was expecting the spices to come through a bit more than they do, but it is worth buying nonetheless. Just a bit subtle.
