Time to get jolly!

I think it's time to get a little bit jolly!

The weather is taking its toll on us all, and we're fed up with it! It stops people coming out and and makes us all feel dark and gloomy; so let's change the mood- I think it's time to get the fairy lights up at Peppercorn and for you all to come and indulge yourselves a little.
We have a new cake that we're testing - it's Boozy Lime and Cocoa marble cake. It's has a tangy and rather heady juiciness to it (could be something to do with the brandy...?) and curiously, after a slice, one's mood brightens palpably. I think some chantilly could possibly complete the experience.

As you know - we intend to open every day apart from Christmas day; and our opening hours over the two week festive period will be 11am 'til 3pm (from January 6th it'll be back to 10am 'til 4pm). We shall be offering the usual real hot chocolate with chilli as a popular option and if there's anything we've made during the year that has taken your fancy and that you'd really like us to put onto the menu over Christmas and the New Year- then let us know and we'll give it our best shot.

The secret Supper Club is really taking off. We had a full house for our Indian themed evening last week and we are really looking forward to the next one, which will be in January. The date and the theme is yet to be finalised, but Persian is taking my fancy..... - we shall probably decide tomorrow during our admin day.

We have made some lovely and rather unusual chutneys which will be available to buy within the next few weeks and we may even get time to make some of our Peppercorn mini Christmas cakes -  if we get enough requests for them, that is.........
