About this deal

Barclays will shut at least another 77 bank branches throughout 2024 and 2025 after announcing 20 more closures. Below we list the branches disappearing and what the alternatives are if you still want face-to-face banking. Throughout her 70-year reign the Queen has become quite the creature of habit as she reportedly wakes up at the same time and follows the same routine every single day. One element of the Queen's daily diet that is well-known is that she enjoys a cheeky treat every now and then and has even been described as a "chocoholic". The Chocolate Olivers, each with a hint of hops and malt, and smothered in rich, thick dark chocolate.

Evelyn Waugh mentions Bath Oliver biscuits in his novel Brideshead Revisited: Sebastian Flyte and Charles Ryder nibble on the biscuits while indulging in a night of extravagant wine tasting. In the 1930s someone had the brilliant idea of covering (technical term: enrobing) the Bath Oliver with chocolate.

Anything we put on the menu that had chocolate on, she would choose, especially chocolate perfection pie. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. The Reading Evening Post is reporting the continuing story of the resurrection of the Chocolate Bath Oliver, famously rated by John Lennon amongst others as his favourite biscuit.

I have discovered a lot of interesting biscuits but had failed to find a recipe for a simple savoury biscuit on a par with the Bath Oliver. Wheat flour, butter oil, vegetable oil, salt, whole milk powder, malt extract, raising agent (ammonium bicarbonate), yeast, hops. He kept saying time and again that back in the early 70’s he was gifted a box of Huntley and Palmer’s Biscuits and were the most amazing biscuits he’d ever tasted. Kit Kat’s are great for a break but this biscuit rounds off an evening with indulgent sophistication….

As we reported back in 2004 the resurrected Huntley and Palmers have been on a mission to regain some of their lost brands including the Chocolate Bath Oliver and the Breakfast biscuit. It's well-known that the Queen enjoys sweet foods, and Darren has previously described her as a "chocoholic". It was invented by physician William Oliver of Bath, Somerset around 1750, giving the biscuit its name. The plain biscuits are great with Davidstow cheddar or just eaten alone with a cup of sweet tea mid morning.

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. One of the first things she does on waking is have a cup of Earl Grey tea, with no sugar and the occasional drop of milk. Driver appear at the head of the stairs and cross the passage carrying a tray for Aunt Sophy with Bath Oliver biscuits and the tall, cut glass decanter of Fine Old Pale Madeira. Or maybe a forgotten treasure chamber is discovered behind a locked door in a lost or ruined castle. You need to look for seeds on your side of the water, unfortunately :0( Import rewsrictions are tough.

It is very well-known that the 95-year-old is a bonafide "chocoholic" and that could be clearly seen during her latest engagement as she had four boxes of chocolate on the table. If you are anxious about biting into an apple, take lots of care when biting into either a Bath Oliver or a Chocolate Oliver. Bath Olivers were eaten with cheese, with a glass of sherry or port and frequently put in a tin in the spare bedroom in case guests felt peckish in the middle of the night. The Queen clearly has a soft spot for the brand after they were granted a Royal Warrant which means they can display a crest on their packaging. Huntley Palmers version is produced to the same recipe as the original, world famous Chocolate Bath Oliver.

It has even been reported that the first thing the Queen will choose to indulge in when she wakes up is some chocolate biscuits.Oh yes, and the big fact about these biscuits is that once upon a time John Lennon is said to have asked to be paid in Chocolate Olivers rather than pounds.
