  • Not just a breakie food.

    Hi ALL, Well as you all know I am a big fan of Golden Crumpets with Oats, love them for breakfast and light snacks and also have had them savory for lunch..but tonight I wanted dessert after dinner and as I am trying to watch my weight my hand wandered to the crumpets. I already had some low sugar caramel sauce in the frig, so I toasted the crumpets, smothered on a coating of luscious caramel sauce, topped with banana and a shaving of dark chocolate. The result heaven sent..oh so delicious and healthy tooo. These Golden Crumpets with Oats are simply golden. :-)

  • We Love Golden Crumpet with Oats

    We have been enjoying Golden Crumpets with Oats every day! I will have to make another trip to the grocery store to buy some more crumpets for hungry tummies. They have become a hit in this household; lots of experimenting with different toppings on top of the crumpets. They really are so delicious!

  • Keeps everyone happy!

    Golden crumpets with Oats keeps everyone in the family happy. Love that we’re getting the goodness of oats without sacrificing any of the flavour. Hubby hasn’t even noticed that I’ve been buying the Oats packet instead of the regular one. Golden crumpets with oats are also great for a snack during the day.

  • Oats in a crumpet - Genius!

    My 2 boys LOVE their oats (or as they call it: “oats, oats, oats) so I figured anything with oats in would be a sure winner! And yup, it certainly was. I lightly toasted them, spread a little butter on & they were devoured. And now I get: “more, more, more”! They are great for breakfast when you need something fast & also great for a mid-afternoon snack.

  • A crowd pleaser.

    Referring to my girls catch up: We discovered that the easiest way to toast a huge amount of Golden Crumpets with Oats is to put them under the grill, that way All the ladies could enjoy their creation at the same time. They turned out golden brown and just as delicious as they do when toasted in a regular toaster. Arrayed the toppings across the breakfast bar and ladies simply topped their crumpet with their desired choice. Easy and fun and spreading the word about an old favourite with a new twist. :-)

  • Delicious! The whole family loved these!

    I was a bit hesitant at first wondering if these would taste as good as the regular crumpets that I normally buy but was more than impressed to find that they tasted just as good, if not better.
    The whole family was pretty happy with these and even my young granddaughter came back for seconds.
    Not only were they nice with spread on them, they were just lovely plain as well.
    Would definitely recommend these to others.

  • Love Golden Crumpets with Oats

    My son is a fussy eater at times so it is great to find something that he loves and is good for him. We love them in our house for breakfast and for light snacks throughout the day. We have already had to buy a second lot because the first packet was all gone the first day. I love them with honey and my son is a huge vegemite crumpet fan. Highly recommend this product to everyone!

  • Good for breakfast

    Golden crumpets with oats are a great way to start the day.
    They are quick to make, toasty warm and any topping, sweet or savoury can be applied to suit everyone in the family.
    Golden crumpets with oats are a regular item in my shopping trolley, as my family enjoys them and I know that for busy mornings, it’s one less thing that I have to think about.
    Weekdays or weekends, golden crumpet oats often make an appearance at our place for breakfast.

  • The hunger buster.

    Hi everyone,
    I have commented and done heaps of reviews on these delicious GOLDEN CRUMPETS with oats they are just so versatile and easy to prepare..I really do so enjoy them. Although I am gluten sensitive I seem to be able to tolerate the odd crumpet from time to time and that’s fine with me as I get quite bored with the same old bland stuff. These crumpets are so reasonably priced and are quite often on special which helps the grocery bill a lot. They are super delicious with sweet as well as savoury toppings and today as I am now on a low sugar life style I decided to have cheese and vegemite. They are wonderful with a scraping of vegemite and a slice of tasty cheese and placed under the griller..oh so comforting and warm on a rainy grey day. Great for the young and young at heart, eating these little beauties really is smart.

  • Healthy and nutritious breakkie for the family on busy weekday mornings

    These crumpets are scrumptious! I bought them as I liked that they included oats – thought they would be a good breakkie for my family that would be quick and easy – and healthy. My hubby who is not normally a breakfast person ate 3 – then wanted more however as I’d only bought one packet he couldn’t have any more as my little guy and I had eaten the rest. My little guy loved them – and also wanted more! I know what I’ll be buying for breakfast now!! Quick and easy while being healthy for the whle family.

  • Sooo many topping, sooo many mmm yummm moments.

    HI All, as you are well aware of my love of these versatile rounds of pure bliss, I thought I would share another simply sensational topping for these easy yet positively delicious creations. I had some nectarines in the crisper that well let’s just say ..needed to be used up. I lightly peeled them, then heated and sprayed a skillet with oil, placed some choc coated honey comb ( Crunchie or Violet Crumble ) into the skillet, then the nectarines and browned and cooked for a couple of minutes. While they were cooking I toasted the crumpet, then tipped the contense of the pan onto my crumpet. OH pure bliss, sooo sweet, sooo wicked. The choc honey comb melted created a lovely gooey sauce that cooked and browned the nectarines to perfection. Added broken honey comb to the topping finished the creation and added a cafe style touch. I am sure even Max Brenner would be impressed. :-)

    Everyone, myself and my 3 kids, love crumpets, and these went down a treat. I prefer buying things made with oats but I was a little wary of how they’d taste compared to the regular ones, but these were delicious! Very happy, and will continue buying them and feeling less weighed down, haha.

  • Not just for breakfast

    I recently tried Crumpets with oats as they were out of the normal ones. We couldn’t taste any difference in the flavour, even hubby didn’t notice and he doesn’t like oats.
    We eat usually crumpets after dinner with butter and jam in our house but they are delicious anytime.
    Will definitely add them to our regular shop.

  • more for me!

    The kiddies in my house do not like crumpets whatsoever and unfortunately these were no exception. However I rely heavily on the humble crumpet as my breakfasts usually have to be fast and consumed while standing. I found these gems to have a slightly better taste than the average crumpet and I actually did feel satisfied by them for longer. These will definitely feature regularly in my pantry from now on and I.look forward to trying different ways to eat them

  • Love Crumpets!

    Golden crumpets with oats never last in our house! Enjoyed by the whole family, they are an easy breakfast when we are rushed. During the day, the kids will also sometimes have crumpets as a snack.Golden oats crumpets are easy to make, taste great and you can have them savoury or sweet. We love golden crumpets with oats at our house!

  • Kept the whole family happy

    Golden crumpets with Oats is a yummy breakfast choice for our family. Toasted until golden with that lovely outer crunch and spongy holes served with our favourite topping macadamia honey the kids didn’t notice the difference of added oats when I served it up this morning. My only complaint was I had a hard time finding crumpets WITH oats, it was third store lucky for me. With that being said I would buy this product again.

Buon Appetito! A Busy Mum’s Guide To Memorable, Simple Summer Entertaining

I fondly remember slow, summer afternoons with family and friends gathered around a table of delicious finger-food during my childhood – the adults chatting and laughing, the kids pretending they understood the jokes. My parents had continued their Mediterranean traditions long after settling in Australia – and the simple joy of an effortlessly elegant gathering was one of my favourites.

What I don’t remember is my parents ever being stressed about the gatherings. It all just seemed to ‘come together’. Ah, how times have changed!

There’s something about the Italian style of entertaining that’s still so alluring in our fast-paced family lives. The idea of La Dolce Vita: a sweet life surrounded by family, friends, food and minimal fuss. Which is why we’ve enlisted the help of the entertaining experts at Sandhurst to share easy tips for elegant, memorable summer get-togethers.

We also asked our community of mums to share their tried and true, easy summer entertaining ideas, and we can’t wait to share them with you!

Euro-Inspired Entertaining

Sandhurst

Before we dive into the delicious world of sumptuous, simple summer entertaining, it helps to know a little about the inspiration behind our guide. And that’s the concept of Italian entertaining – where time is taken to lovingly grow ingredients, before enjoying them with those you love.

Established in 1988, Sandhurst was born from the time-honoured traditions of generations of the family behind the brand – a proud Italian Australian family passionate about quality produce sourced from world’s best growers.

At the helm of Sandhurst are brothers Mimmo and Ray Lubrano, who live and breathe the impeccable ingredients that become the centrepiece of so many gatherings in Australian family homes.

“Tradition is what we stand for. We’re custodians of Italian values,” explained Mimmo. “When we go to Italy we see it in our grandparents, our parents came from Italy in the 50s. The tradition is a set of values: honesty, teamwork, participation, family – all the things you would associate with Italian family are the values.”

And it’s these beautiful values that make summer gatherings in Australia an extension of the European table.

Easy Summer Entertaining Starts With … Time Saving Secrets!

A sweet summer of entertaining doesn’t need to be stressful. In fact, it shouldn’t be. It’s a chance to spend time with loved ones. To press pause on life and make memories. And it can be simple! So here are some really easy tips for making your home the place where everyone wants to gather this summer.

Create An Entertaining Kit

Whether it’s pre-planned or you’ve had friends or family drop-in, having a few things ready to go immediately melts away any stress. Here are some things to include in a summer entertaining kit:

  • A red table cloth: It instantly says festive!
  • Some platters and serving dishes
  • Candles
  • Some quality antipasto ingredients that simply need to be decanted and enjoyed!

Many Hands Make Light Work

As mums, we tend to be our own worst enemy when it comes to delegating tasks. But remember, a summer of entertaining is about creating memories – not perfection. So let the kids help, and accept offers from your guests who’d like to bring something along to share.

“It can be overwhelming, so just delegate, and prepare. I do one dish prep per day and pop them in the freezer. Then they just need to be heated up. Let the kids do the decorating for you – plus keeps them busy!” – MoM Member Kirsty

Decorate With Happiness

There’s no need to pull out your finest crystal to pull off an elegant get together. Take a look around your home and garden to see what will bring your table to life. A bowl of lemons is a gorgeous addition, as is a bunch of gum leaves. Keep it simple and understated.

Finger Food For The Win

Nothing says simple summer elegance more than a charcuterie board (or three!). When my friends and our families get together, it’s our go-to – every family is asked to ‘bring a board’. Some do savoury and some sweet, so we’re covered for a long afternoon of catching up.

“Food wise, I keep it simple by doing cold deli meats, cheeses, fresh fruits and veggies.” – MoM Member

But just because boards are easy to put together, doesn’t mean they can’t ooze elegance. And that comes down to including quality ingredients. Choosing Sandhurst products is the easiest way to guarantee the highest quality ends up on your table. We love the premise behind the brand: from our family to yours – it invokes that nostalgic feeling of shared stories, history, gatherings and family.

La Dolce Vita!

A summer of sophisticated entertaining doesn’t have to be hours and hours of work. We don’t want it to be! By grabbing some beautiful ingredients to fill your pantry next time you’re shopping, you’ll know that at a moment’s notice you’ll have everything you need for a Euro-inspired gathering. No fuss, but plenty of substance and style!

  • I have been a purchaser of Sandhurst goods ever since they first appeared on supermarket shelves and still buy it to this day. The Sandhurst brand is the best without a doubt. This year I have not been able to find the Sandhurst cheese stuffed baby capsicums anywhere. I have tried to get on the Sandhurst site, but no luck with what they make. Help – these are such a wonderful addition to a salad.

  • I Love a good charcuterie board. I Love all the different options all on the one board. I love to do a chocolate board when we have guests over, it’s a fun way to do dessert after dinner. The kids love seeing everything layed out so they can pick and choose.

  • This is great for the grandchildren they love them as they use them as finger food and make up their own meal and use plenty of ingredients including meat and cheese on the dips and crackers. We keep it simple with the Sandhurst’s products as it is a meal in every jar and the kids love them.

  • This looks like the perfect relaxed way to have a picnic! I am loving the idea of this! Just bring along lots of fillings and plenty of cheeses and breads and of course a little alcohol and you’re all set. This sounds like the perfect way to catch up with friends!

  • Certainly most welcome for summer, and would be wonderful for the festive season. I can see this platter on the table Christmas Eve, when we get together with our neighbours.

  • Charcuterie boards are the absolute best! We do these so often in the warmer months because there’s something for the whole family. People pick and choose what they like and there’s no complaints because there’s so many different options to choose from, everyone is happy. It’s such a simple stressful way to make dinner.

  • I absolutely adore finger food and this style of feeding people when we have family and friends at our home; or when we go out for a picnic, bbq or get together. These types of food are so easy to source and to buy and to prepare and to happily eat.

    • Yes I agree, finger foods are easy and yummie ! And you can assemble a healthy enough plate (certainly when you add salads, cheeses, nuts, fruits, boiled eggs, olives and rustic breads) that it can certainly can replace a meal (either lunch or dinner). Everyone happy and no hours of preparation in the kitchen :)

      • Also; the other bonus is less mess to clean up when cutlery is not needed. Finger food is the best for laid back and relaxed get togethers. There is always such a clam and relaxed feel to a finger food meal without the need for any fancy and stuffy table settings.

  • I love the looks of different finger foods. I don’t think it is hard to put something together and I had many afternoons hanging out with many mums and all the children at the Cul the sac we then lived. At times I had 8 mums coming with over 40 kids. Many sweet memories indeed

  • Charcuterie Boards and Antipasto boards are so good. I love them, i love the variety of foods you can put on them and they are so great for entertaining and enjoying with family or friends. It is something i like to make whenever i have friends over as you can enjoy and pick away while you are catching up. Great entertaining option.

  • I absolutely adore an antipasto spread. There’s nothing better than having a colourful plate of charcuterie and antipasto shared with loved ones. I grew up with my Mum making the most lush, long table of nibblies on celebrations and it’s something that my siblings and I carry on today. It brings us all together.
