Christmas gifts from The Fat Duck Gift Shop

The Fat Duck Heston Blumenthal edible caramels

Christmas is coming and The Fat Duck gift shop has a unique selection of gastronomic treats to bring a little bit of three-Michelin stardom to your home this Christmas.

First, there’s the return of Heston’s scrumptious and Christmas Pudding. When Heston Blumenthal OBE first created his Hidden Orange Christmas Pudding in 2010, it sold out almost overnight and triggered a bidding war on eBay. Now it’s back with a new concealed citrus fruit. So don’t miss out this Christmas, order a pud (£45) and bring a bit of gastronomic magic to your Christmas lunch or dinner.

Second, Christmas is all about fun and Heston’s universe is a place full of playfulness and curiosity. So now, for the kid in all of us, the Willy Wonka of haute cuisine has created the Planet Heston playpack (£15) with a plethora of puzzles, exciting experiments, fun food facts and things to colour in, using the accompanying set of chocolate-and-mandarin-flavoured edible crayons.

Third, Christmas is a time when most of the surprises happen when you take off the wrapping. But Heston has created a sweet where the surprise IS the wrapping!  In the final course at The Fat Duck – ‘Like a Kid in a Sweetshop’ – guests are given a chewy caramel with a classic pie flavour: apple, lemon, pecan or banoffee. But the twist is that the whole thing is edible – including the wrapper. So, get yourself some of the Fat Duck’s Soft Edible Wrapper Caramels (£20) this Christmas and there’s no fiddling with foil or cellophane, you can just pop them in your mouth and enjoy. Or offer to friends to delight and dumbfound them.
