Breakfast
How the British eat their breakfast
During the week, it's simple: a bowl of porridge or two Weetabix with cold milk, toast, and a mug of tea with a splash of milk. The Full English, with its eggs, bacon, and baked beans, is more of a weekend affair. This aisle is your everyday grocery store: cereals, jams, and spreads that you'd find in any English kitchen.
Porridge and cereals
For classic porridge, choose rolled oats: Scott's Porage Oats in a 1kg bag or Quaker Rolled Oats. Scots cook them in water with a pinch of salt, while the English prefer milk and a spoonful of golden syrup. In a rush in the morning? Quaker oats can be prepared in two minutes in the microwave. The entire selection is in the Cereals & Porridge aisle.
Marmalades, jams and curds
Bitter orange marmalade is the jar found on every breakfast table. We've selected those from Tiptree , a family business established in Essex since 1885, including Old Times and orange-ginger, as well as Robertson's and Rose's with lime. Lemon curd is delicious spread on toast or a scone , and also makes a wonderful tart filling. See the entire Jams & Curds section.
Marmite and spreads
Marmite is best spread in a very thin layer on warm, buttered toast: that's the advice to give to those trying it for the first time. For those with a sweet tooth, there are Cadbury spreads in milk chocolate, caramel, or Crunchie flavors, and Sun-Pat peanut butters. Everything is in the Spreads aisle.
For a Full English on Sunday, Heinz baked beans and HP sauce are in our Savory Grocery section, and Yorkshire Tea in the Tea section.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know
What is a real English breakfast?
The famous "Full English" combines eggs, bacon, sausages, baked beans, mushrooms, and toast: it's the weekend breakfast. During the week, the British prefer a bowl of cereal or porridge, and buttered toast with marmalade, lemon curd, or jam, accompanied by a strong cup of tea.
What is porridge and how do you prepare it?
Porridge is a gruel of oatmeal cooked in milk or water, a staple of British mornings, especially in Scotland. It only takes a few minutes in a saucepan or microwave. Quaker 's Oat So Simple sachets are even quicker. Sweeten it with golden syrup, honey, or fruit.
What is the difference between jam and marmalade?
In the United Kingdom, marmalade is made exclusively from citrus fruits, most often bitter orange, with pieces of peel: either thin ("fine cut") or thick ("thick cut"). It has a more bitter and intense flavor than jam. Robertson's , Hartley's , Rose's , and Tiptree offer delicious marmalade.
What is lemon curd?
It's a smooth lemon cream made with lemon juice, sugar, butter, and eggs. The British spread it on toast or scones , or use it to fill tarts. Tangy and creamy, it brightens up any breakfast.
What is Weetabix ?
These are whole wheat crackers, a British breakfast staple since the 1930s. They're crumbled into a bowl of milk, hot or cold, with a little sugar or fruit. Simple, nourishing, and very British.
What does anti-waste mean at Candy Dukes ?
At Candy Dukes , nothing goes to waste. Products nearing or past their best-before date are offered at reduced prices, up to 80% off. You get a great deal, and a perfectly good product doesn't end up in the bin. A small step for the planet, and a big treat for those with a sweet tooth.
What is the difference between a DDM and a DLC?
The "use by" date applies to fresh products, such as meat or dairy: once this date has passed, they should no longer be consumed. The "best before" date applies to grocery products: sweets, biscuits, teas, canned goods, sauces, etc. After this date, the product remains safe to eat. Only its quality may change slightly. To reduce food waste, we only offer products with a "best before" date, never with a "use by" date.
