Wagamama's feel-good menu

Wagamama has long been a favourite – and now the popular chain has announced an exciting new 'kaizen' (aka good change) coming to 157 of its branches. Customers can expect to see fresh bowls, a new drinks menu with a twist and a buzzing new vibe.

The new menu features three bright koyo bowls (meaning colourful leaves) including a choice of salmon, chicken or aubergine with delicious, caramelised onion marinated in a sticky red chilli and miso sauce, served on a bed of mixed leaves, beetroot, carrot, cucumber, mooli, red radish and classic edamame beans. It also brings back the iconic vegan 'chicken' kare lomen (hurrah!) and several delicious new sides, such as crispy chilli mushrooms, refreshed wok-fried greens, Asian peppers, prawn nori rolls, hirata steamed hoisin pulled duck buns and a refreshing tropical and power sorbet for dessert.

The brand-new dishes go hand-in-hand with special drinks designed to complement them. Served in stylish new glassware, new cocktails include a sparkling sake, a pandan colada, a twist on the classic pina colada with the addition of fragrant pandan, a refreshing sake spritz, and a Thai chilli margarita for those that love a bit of heat. And that's not all since the company is bringing a fresh new playlist into restaurants plus funky new imagery with a photography takeover by renowned photographer, Ewen Spencer.

Candy's Cupcakes's fun range of toppings

Candy's Cupcakes needs to be on your roster. The Manchester-based company make the perfect selection of sweet treats and cupcakes, and they deliver nationwide. Team HELLO! tried a mixed box of cakes – including chocolatey fudge and fluffy vanilla sponge topped with a party ring – and the verdict was an overwhelming thumbs up from around the office. We can confirm they vanished in next to no time.

We loved the variety of toppings available (a whopping 91 options), from nostalgic childhood sweets like flying saucers and fizzy cherries to chocolate favourites like Chocolate Orange and Toblerone.

They also do cake in-a-box or jar options, special celebration cakes with personalisation options and donuts. What more could you want?

French pastry delights from Maitre Choux

If you're in London, head down to French patisserie Maitre Choux's South Kensington store to sample their delicious Miracles collection. Crafted by Olivier Mourelon, these are ultra-exclusive pastries that will impress your friends and colleagues. There are only a limited number available each day on a first come, first served basis.

These were a hit in the HELLO! office, with the pistachio and the raspberry flavours being particular favourites. The tasty pie crusts are filled with a mouthwatering cream filling, with a punchy centre adding to the flavour explosion. The concept reimagines the Religieuse pastry (basically a round éclair with a smaller circle on top), elevating it with added complexity of flavours – and they look pretty special, too.

The Miracles collection is set to be rolled out to all Maître Choux locations from September 2023, so keep your eyes peeled!

Donutelier's limited edition desserts

Sometimes, sweet treats look too good to eat - and that is definitely the case with Donutelier's new limited-edition collection. Opened just a stone’s throw from Covent Garden earlier this year, it is the world’s first "doughnut atelier", which offers handmade luxury doughnuts daily. Inspired by the intricate craftsmanship of the greatest fashion ateliers, they showcase each step of the intricate doughnut-making and designing process. 

We tried all three of the latest limited edition flavours in the office: Fraise (strawberry compote, ‏vanilla chantilly and fresh sliced strawberries; Yuzu Concorde (raspberry mint compote vanilla chantilly, yuzu lemon cream & toasted meringue sticks; and Pink Royal (Wild berries cream, strawberry meringues, crispy raspberry and raspberry chantilly cream). Safe to say, they satisfied everyone's sweet tooth!
