Great Expectations
So....... at 6am this morning, whilst grabbing my 15 mins of social media catch up time, I quite innocently, decided to see if I could find a West Indian bakery other than the one I currently order from on-line, who might sell Black/Fruit/Rum Cake. My web search brought up some companies that I had not heard of before including your own. I did some reading and my search informed me that Harrison & Griffiths had a Rum Cake on sale in Aldi. Now, Aldi is not one of my regular food shop stores but there is one less than a 5 minute drive away from home and I decided that I would pop in real quick as soon as they opened the store and then get back home to work. I had no expectations of the store having any as I felt that my current demographic location would have no interest in stocking this item. I went in with my screenshot in hand, approached the first member of staff that I saw and waited for a blank look. 'Oh yes, the Rum Cake' she said and led me to where there were 6 left. Without thinking, I grabbed all six boxes, paid and left. I have just finished work for the day and asked my daughter to go get us some cake as I couldn't take the suspense any longer. Well....... First of all, the smell is DIVINE and brings back so many memories and then the taste and texture ...Mwaaaaah! I am so glad that I bought the last 6 in the store or I would be kicking myself right now. Unfortunately, my intention to give 4 boxes to some of my friends is no longer an option, they are now all mine but I have shared my find with them via messaging. Well done to you guys and thank you. I wish you continued success and I hope that your products make it on to shop floor and into other stores if that is what you also desire. Health , Wealth and Happiness to you and yours x
