Warburtons Potato Cakes

After having tried the Warburtons Crumpets, and really enjoying them, I decided to give their Potato Cakes a go. I usually buy the Tesco's own brand ones or make my own, but the reviews for the Warburtons ones were very good, and persuaded me to buy a pack. There are six potato cakes in a pack, and they are round and quite thick. Each potato cake weighs, on average, 53.5g. I bought mine in my local Tesco, and they cost 57 pence. The potato cakes can be toasted or grilled under a preheated medium grill for 2-3 minutes. I used the toaster, and they turned out well, and were delicious covered in butter. My husband also had some for a snack too, and we both found ...  Read the complete review

When that silly question arises between friends of what one food we'd take to a desert island to live on for the rest of our lives I always reply with "potato cakes!".

I bought these in a bargain shop called B&M for 79p for a packet of six as I fancied a change. They're suitable for vegetarians and for home-freezing. The allergy advice warns that they contain wheat gluten and are produced in a bakery that uses soya, egg and milk. You can eat them hot or cold. If you try them cold they're very soft and not too chewy. They taste a bit like a savoury pancake to me. They can be a bit bland if you eat them plain so I like to dip mine in hummus. They don't smell very appetising and they have no ...  Read the complete review

Warburtons Potato Cakes, not the brand I usually buy but these were on a BOGOF offer in my local Morrisons store. How differnet can potato cakes be I asked myself? Well it turns out, quite alot actually. The potato cakes are round, quite dense in appearance and feel spongy to the touch, everything quite normal there. Once in the toaster I could smell an almost sweet tang, not quite vanilla but something more than just potatoes and flour. A quick check on the pack confirmed that they contain "flavours" and "colours", quite why is beyond me. Once toasted and buttered I set about testing, the cake was fairly ...  Read the complete review
