Kaspa's Desserts Leeds Review





Kaspa's recently opened a new Leeds store, situated in The Core Shopping Centre. I took my cousin along to check it out, as we do love our dessert. This is not a sponsored post and all views/opinions are my own. 

Kaspa's is a nationwide franchise now having stores in most major cities, and from looks of it on their website, they are still expanding. 

Kaspa's is a dessert restaurant selling delicious treats such as crepes, waffles, sundaes, and milkshakes. Decorated like a modern diner, you will either love or hate the bright pink and black interior, however, it's fun and will appeal to the teenage/child demographic. 

We decided to head in early and grab some breakfast before heading to the Royal Armouries Museum.  The restaurant was quiet due to it been about 10 am, there was only one other customer. 
The staff were friendly and greeted us on arrival, one staff member sat us down and explained the menu briefly to us. 
The menu had lots to choose from and if you are like me and like to look at the menu before going to a restaurant, then you can find it on the Kaspa's website. 
After pondering the menu for a while I chose the Strawberry Indulge Waffle, which was a fresh waffle topped with fresh strawberry slices, chocolate sauce and sprinkled with milk chocolate flakes. I then chose a side of Ice-cream, however, you can get squirty cream if you prefer. I opted just for a glass of water to drink, which was FREE. my total bill came to £5.95. Many people will probably say that isn't cheap for a waffle, but I think it was worth every penny especially as it is all made freshly. 




My 13yr old cousin opted to build his own waffle instead of picking one from the list. He chose an Oreo waffle base, fudge pieces, white chocolate sauce, and squirty cream. instead of getting a glass of water to help his waffle go down, he opted for a Bubblegum Milkshake. He didn't let me try his waffle, however, the milkshake was very rich and had a strong flavour. His total came to around £9.50. 


With our eyes being bigger than our belly's we did not end up finishing our waffles. We both ate about 3/4. My cousin also only drank about half of his milkshake as it was too filling.  
We give Kaspa's Leeds an 8/10. We will be back again to indulge on their amazing desserts. I would say their only let down was upon leaving their staff didn't acknowledge us and say thank you or goodbye.

Propercorn Review

Propercorn is a British Popcorn company that started in 2011. Their popcorn is healthy and guilt free. All of their unique flavored popcorn has less than 130kcals per bag. If you enjoy eating healthy but are bored of fruit or snack bars then I recommend grabbing a bag of Propercorn. All Propercorns flavored popcorn are GM, gluten and wheat free.










1) Their Smooth Peanut and Almond flavor popcorn are suitable for vegans. If you love peanut butter or a nutty flavor, you will probably go nuts over these. 






2) A bag of the Lightly Sea Salted popcorn is also suitable for vegans. These will certainly satisfy those who love the classic salted popcorn. 




3) Propercorns unique Firey Worcester Sauce and Sundried Tomato flavor popcorn are also suitable for vegans. If you like food with a kick of chili then these are the right flavored popcorn for you.







4) The Sour Cream and Black Pepper flavored popcorn isn't vegan-friendly, however, is suitable for vegetarians. Sour Cream has been a popular flavor on the crisp market for a while, so I am glad Propercorn has introduced it to the popcorn industry. 






4) My ultimate favorite form Propercorns collection is their Sweet and Salty. A bag of Sweet and Salty is vegan-friendly and is made using sea salt and brown sugar. How I grew up just eating sweet popcorn at the cinema I will never know, there is no going back now. 






5) Sweet Coconut and Vanilla is suitable for vegetarians.  This unique flavour is the perfect mix of Vanilla and Coconut and had me thinking of tropical beaches. If you love the taste of tropical cocktails or delicious coconut then you will certainly enjoy a bag of these. 



My university friends and I tucked into the box of Propercorn, and they were all blown away by the unique flavours and incredible taste. I highly reccomend Propercorn and you can find it in most major supermarkets. Luckily for us they also sell it at our university. Check out there website for more details. https://www.propercorn.com
Best Wishes

Here are my top 5 picks from the Very.co.uk website for this years Spring Season.





V by Very

I think this tunic dress is so on trend for the spring season. It not only includes a laced up front which has been seen on the likes of Kylie Jenner, but the coral shade is perfect for these warmer evenings. 









River Island
Printed Kaftan
£35


Going on Holiday? This Kaftan would look perfect on a glistening beach or by the pool. You could also dress it up for an evening. Just add some bangles, stacked necklaces and sandal heels and hit those beach bars.










Rare
Sequin Aztec Dress
£59


This Sequin Aztec print dress is gorgeous and would look perfect on a night out, at prom or even a wedding.
The Aztec print is so on trend for this season and them sequins make it a whole lot more glamorous. 











Miss KG
French Caged Sandal
£80

If theres one thing I love its a neutral coloured sandal. These Miss KG Sandals would be a perfect match for nearly any outfit.  They would look perfect with both the Aztec Dress and Kaftan. The camel colour and fringe detail have been gracing the runways for the SS16 season.  









River Island
Festival Style Fringed Cross Body Bag
£35


River Island never seem to fail me with their bags. I have been searching for a perfect fringed bag for a while and I think I have finally found it. This bag would be perfect for casual days out, on holiday or even a festival.

Beauty Bargains!

Yesterday I went for a meal at Aagrah in Leeds which I highly recommend. The curry is very tasty and I found the staff to be very helpful. Before I went for the meal I had a little time to kill so I had a wonder around the shops. Most of the shops have a few last bits bits and bobs in the January sales but not much worth buying. However I did stumble across these two little bargains.


1) The Blackcurrant and Fig gift set from Boots. Its original price was £18.00 but I got it for £5.40 which is a saving of £12.60. 


2) Primark beauty blender. It was £1.50 and now 70p. I find in most Beauty/Makeup stores beauty blenders are way over priced but this is a bargain. 


I hope you find yourself some beauty bargains!
