Classic afternoon tea menus of sandwiches, scones and perfect patisserie get a festive makeover at this time of year, from turkey sandwiches and cranberry jam to go with scones, to carefully crafted yule logs, Christmas trees made of cake, savoury mince pies and many more magical discoveries. You're sure to leave full and with a wonderful new Christmas tradition to return to year after year. If you're not after a Christmas theme, check out the best afternoon teas in London and the best across the UK, too. Best festive afternoon teas in London 2025 Hyatt Regency London - The Churchill, Marylebone Known for its travel-themed Flavours of the World afternoon teas, this Christmas, Hyatt Regency London – The Churchill has fittingly chosen Lapland as its destination inspiration for guests. However rather than just a few festively named desserts, the hotel fully embraces a sense of delightful theatricality, transporting guests on board a ‘Montagu Kitchen Airlines’ flight to Lapland. Upon arriving our hostess immediately donned a pillbox air stewardess hat, stamped our boarding pass ‘in-flight menus’ and escorted us to our seats ready for take-off. Our napkins were tied with a chic leather luggage tag, two of our three courses were gorgeously presented in multiple compartments of a suitcase, and champagne was offered upon lift off. Our in-flight menu boasted an array of spiced treats, including a tangy sweet water shrimp tartelette and, my personal favourite, a rich but light brioche roll topped with forest mushroom duxelles and Witheridge cheese. Following this there was the classic, traditional plain and raisin scones with clotted cream and strawberry jam – it was however given an exotic twist by featuring a zesty passion fruit jam, all suitably located in the side compartments of our luggage. Lastly, the main part of our suitcase opened to reveal a …

description: Our health experts have tried and tested marine, vegan and bovine collagen in the form of gels and powders to help you find the best option
encoded: Collagen occurs naturally in the human body and is a vital protein for the skin, bones, muscle and connective tissue. It's important that your diet contains enough protein in order to get the amino acids required for making collagen. Taking a collagen supplement could also help improve skin health and elasticity, and may help in other areas, like relieving joint pain and protecting bone density. As we age, our bodies naturally produce less collagen, so you may consider taking a collagen supplement. But, there's a lot of noise out there about which type of collagen supplement is best and how they taste – plus, they can be expensive. We put collagen supplements to the test for flavour and quality of ingredients so you can make the right choice when choosing one. Read on for the best marine, vegan and bovine collagen supplements.

description: Drinks expert Hannah Guinness has tested the best vodka to buy so you'll be ready to make a whole range of classic cocktails at home
encoded: Looking for the best vodka to try? Read our guide then check out our vodka cocktail recipes, then check out our alternative spirits and best sustainable spirits to try. This clear spirit is an essential ingredient for any drinks cupboard. Vodka has always been celebrated for its versatility as a cocktail ingredient, and in recent years the launches of new artisan brands have meant that it’s also seen as a premium spirit that can be sipped and savoured. In places such as Russia and Poland, it’s a spirit usually drunk neat, ice-cold and in shots, and with two things – company, and food (especially pickles and salty snacks). It’s vodka’s versatility as a drinks base, however, that saw it soar in popularity in countries including the US in the 20th century, with vodka cocktails such as the moscow mule and cosmopolitan ensuring that sales boomed. Recent years have seen vodka’s crown slip a little, with sales dented by the boom in ‘craft’ spirits, especially gin (interestingly, gin is effectively made from vodka, with extra flavourings added). This status quo is shifting, however, with the emergence of new vodkas that champion their raw ingredients and position themselves as premium artisan products. Because while it’s popularly seen as a ‘flavourless’ spirit, the best expressions will have subtle differences – potato vodkas will have a creamier texture, while a rye-based spirit can have nutty notes. This can be especially appreciated in classic, spirit-forward cocktails such as a vodka martini. The UK has witnessed its own mini-boom in premium English vodkas, made with anything from potato and grains (the traditional base ingredients for vodka) to grapes and even milk. Here are a few of our favourite vodkas to buy from the UK and beyond. 19 best vodkas to buy at a glance Best herbal vodka: Colwith Distillery Aval Dor Cornish Rosemary and Bay Vodka, £39.25 Best vodka for gifting: Sapling vodka, £31.25 Best floral vodka: Jo Vodka 103 – The Artist, £49.99 Best full-bodied v…

Tequila is a distilled spirit made from the cooked and fermented juice of blue agave. Most tequilas fall into three categories. Blanco tequila is unaged and bottled within two months, and is typically used in cocktails. It usually has strong agave and earthy flavours. Reposado tequilas have been aged in wooden casks for at least two months – which mellows the spirit and imparts oaky notes. Try them in cocktails like margaritas, or drink them neat. Añejo teq…

description: A pizza oven is the ultimate piece of outdoor kit come rain or shine, whether you're hosting a crowd or heading out on a camping trip
encoded: For a long time, pizzas were something to be enjoyed out at your favourite Italian restaurant with a large, wood-fired oven churning out multiple pies at a time, and an expert dough slinger wielding a pizza peel with ease. But advances in technology in recent years now mean that, whether it's for special occasions, hosting pizza parties or planning a camping trip, you can enjoy delicious pizza whenever and wherever you like. Pizza ovens now have the heating and insulation technology to be able to achieve temperatures exceeding 500C, which is how you get perfectly melted toppings and a mottled, slightly charred crust. These temperatures can't be reached by normal domestic ovens. You don't necessarily need a large outdoor space either. Many pizza ovens are compact so are perfect for balconies or smaller courtyard gardens, while others are electric models that can be used indoors.

description: Find our reviews of the best mushroom supplements available in the UK, tried and tested, from drinkable powders to capsules
encoded: Functional mushrooms seem to be everywhere, which isn’t surprising thanks to their suggested benefits of improved focus and energy, regulating stress and strengthening immunity. When used as a wellness tool, so-called ‘adaptogenic’ mushrooms – like reishi, lion’s mane and cordyceps – are said to help us cope better with life’s ups and downs. These varieties, as well as the likes of maitake, shiitake and chaga, are also said to have medicinal properties that may extend to helping us fight obesity and slow the ageing process. However, despite such publicised acclaim, as the research currently stands, there is not enough evidence to fully validate these or other alleged health benefits.

But, have you considered replacing your morning brew with a cup of mushroom coffee?

From frying pancakes or bacon to sizzling onions, steaming dumplings and simmering pasta sauces, a good pan becomes an essential kitchen workhorse. Ceramic pans have a type of non-stick coating which are growing in popularity thanks to their increased durability compared to traditional non-stick. Ceramic pans also utilise mineral rather than chemical process in the non-stick coating which many people prefer. We've put a selection of ceramic frying pans to the test by making omelettes and American pancakes to see how easily they released from the pan. We also tested for other elements including sustainability, versatility and ease of cleaning to determine what the best ceramic frying pan for you to buy would be, whether you want a colourful design, budget buy or investment built to last.

In the busy hustle and bustle of daily life, more and more people are adding greens powders to their diet as a quick and easy way of getting some potential nutrition. Brands such as Huel, Shreddy and Free Soul are becoming familiar on social media, often making big health claims about their potential benefits, from boosting immunity and relieving bloating to improving appearance of skin, hair and nails. The greens powders we tested varied in the number of total ingredients, ranging from six to 91. We tested all the greens powders just mixed with water, but you could also add to a morning smoothie or juice. They also vary widely in price – ours cost from between £13-£97 a packet. With so many greens powders on the market – many of them fairly expensive – it can be hard to know where to begin and what is worth the investment.

Best chef's knives, tried and tested by experts 2025

subject: Guides
subject: Reviews
description: Arguably the most important in your arsenal, the multifunctional chef's knife is the go-to for most tasks. We put a range to the test – discover which came out on top.
encoded: A chef’s knife is an indispensable tool in any kitchen. Distinguished by a large, long blade (typically between 20-30cm) and sturdy, robust handle, a chef’s knife is the tool cooks reach for to complete almost every kitchen task. The multifunctional design means they’re larger than utility and paring knives, but feature a smaller, wider blade than a carving knife. They will come as standard in all knife sets. Most chef’s knives are made from steel, but the way the steel is treated means knife performance can vary hugely. Carbon steel is arguably the best choice for a chef’s knife as it’s easy to sharpen and tends to hold its edge for a long time. Though, if not cared for, carbon steel can rust. Stainless steel is a widely accessible material, meaning knives made from this tend to be more affordable. It can’t be sharpened to the same edge as carbon steel, but it’s a hardy material that’s less likely to rust. Some knives are laminated and layer both stainless and carbon steel in an attempt to get the best out of both materials. Knives can also be made from ceramic – these hard knives hold their edge for a long time and do not rust, but they are brittle and at risk of chipping. All of the knives on our list are made from steel. You can use a chef’s knife for most tasks, be it finely chopping soffritto for spaghetti bolognese, cutting salted matcha fudge, slicing through bavette steak or halving squash for our stuffed butternut squash recipe. The only thing chef’s knives tend to be less suitable for is fine work, such as supreming citrus fruits or coring ingredients. For these tasks, opt for a paring knife. We'd also recommend something hardy, like a cleaver, if you need to chop through bones. We tested two of the most common styles of chef’s knives: Japanese and European. The in-depth differences between these two knives can be found at the bottom of this page, but at a glance, Japanese knives are ultra-sharp and thin, whereas European knives have a robust, thick blade…

Whether you’re a cappuccino aficionado, hot chocolate fan or simply want to liven up your instant coffee, milk frothers will give your classic brew a creamy barista-style boost. While some coffee machines will come with built-in milk frothers, most will require you froth your milk separately. Many independent milk frother will also have a wider range of setting for different textures of microfoam or for hot or cold frothed milk, which isn't usually available for those built into coffee machines. Having a milk frother will also allow you further versatility from manual espresso brewing methods like moka pots and cafetieres.
