Yes, I have one extra shake PWO, but I don't sit there and workout the difference in calories each day. That is what I was referring to.

Chocolate shortbread mackerel? Interdasting...........

 

[Chris1712]

Yup Chocolate & Caramel Shortbread. Oh lawd, there's no macro's these can fit I assure you. It's hard to get across the scale, but the shortbread is about 3.5-4cm thick, with 1cm of dairy milk and 1cm of caramel.
If I eat one before I have my lunch (ie after 16 hours fasting, with fasted training in the morning) I can seriously feel the insulin reaction and I turn into a radiator at my desk. Need to stack it with a rotisserie chicken to slow the sugar down a bit .

EDIT:
I'm told this is the recipe:

[FONT=&quot]Shortbread base[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]8oz butter[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]4oz caster sugar[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]12oz plain flour[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Toffee filling[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]8oz butter[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]4oz caster sugar[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]4 tbsp golden syrup[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]1 x 397g can condensed milk[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Topping[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]2 x 200g bars Dairy Milk chocolate[/FONT]

Though this was followed by 'That might not be right, It might be double that chocloate'.

 

[Kimi]

I might have to accidently make some of those

A comp that is "close" to you, ish. Might be worth having a look at

 

[Freefaller]

If I had a sweet tooth I'd be all over that! Shame it's milk chocolate though - Dark Chocolate it's where it's at... the more bitter the better!

Why would they put such a glorious establishment there? Whack it in the city centre bet it would be heaving. GBK & That Burger Joint just aren't up to the task anymore .
