FLAVOUR
As anyone who grew up in the 1970's knows, one wasn't spoiled for choice in those days when it came to food. There were only three types of ice-cream: vanilla, strawberry and chocolate and the latter tasted distinctly like cocoa powder (Mint choc chip was only invented in 1973 for the wedding of Princess Anne and Captain Mark Phillips).
However we had one of those fabulous home ice-cream makers, with the fixed paddle and rotating inner tub around which you packed ice and salt. My favourite was fresh mint which we made by dropping tiny pieces of mint into the churning vanilla mix; fabulous! I have done the same with this macaron - lots of fresh mint and a squeeze of lemon juice to give it a wonderful minty zing.

If your order is destined for the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Wight, the Isles of Scilly, Northern Ireland, or remote areas of Scotland, your order is sent with Royal Mail Special Delivery. The delivery timeframe will vary depending on the postcode, and can be anywhere from next business day to 3 business days. A postcode-specific estimate (based on Royal Mail advertised delivery timeframes) is displayed on the Shipping Method step at checkout.
-
Saturday Delivery
If you place your order after the 11am cutoff on Thursday and before the 11am cutoff on Friday, you will have the option of Saturday delivery either by DPD or Royal Mail if it is avilable for the destination postcode. There is an additional cost for this service.
Orders placed on Thursdays & Fridays
For orders placed after 11am on Thursday and before 11am on Friday, the following applies:
-
UK Mainland Delivery (excluding Scottish Highlands)
Orders that are sent with DPD Next Day (Mon-Fri) will be sent out the following Monday (excluding Bank Holidays) for delivery on Tuesday. Please select Saturday delivery if you would like to receive them on Saturday instead.
We cannot make exceptions for this as DPD automatically disposes of food parcels that are in transit for more than 2 days, and will not attempt delivery on Saturday if the Saturday service is not selected.

Orders that are sent with Royal Mail Special Delivery will be sent out on Friday if the order is placed before 11am. Please see the delivery estimates on the Shipping Method step of checkout for postcode-specific estimates.
If Saturday delivery is available it will be a shipping option at checkout, otherwise Royal Mail will take between 1-3 business days to deliver the parcel, depending on the postcode.
