Taste of the Week. Miena's Handmade Nougat


Taste of the Week
Miena's Handmade Nougat 


"Made in small batches with locally sourced fresh ingredients, I have developed a recipe different from those used in France and South Africa. The result is a unique and uncompromising soft Irish Nougat."  It is our Taste of the Week, not for the first time. Her kitchen by the way is certified gluten free.

There is a whole list of tempting nougat flavours coming from the lush countryside of the Glen of Imaal in County Wicklow these days. You may have different flavours:  Almonds and Pecan, Almonds and Passionfruit, Almonds and Pistachio, Almonds and Mixed Berries, Roasted Almonds,  Almonds with Rhubarb and Strawberry, plus various selection boxes and tins. Presents (Valentine maybe) sorted!

I got mine from Bakestone in the Fota Retail Park at Cobh Cross but these scrumptious prize-winning nougats are widely available, including in Dunnes Stores Simply Better and at Miena’s own online shop. For a list of stockists, please click here. Abroad, you can find them in Harrods and they also have clients in Belgium, Denmark and the US.
My treat from Bakestone was the top box here!
