Vanilla and Chocolate Uber Udder- Shaken Udder

Milkshake lovers rejoice! Have you tried Shaken Udder’s newest creation- the Uber udder? The cow-loving funky brand has released their milkshake in Chocolate and Vanilla in a large 1 litre bottle, and we, at The Amazing Blog tried both.

Firstly the Vanilla milkshake has a smooth pure taste, being 95% Semi-skimmed Milk and less than 5% sugar; you can get a decent calcium intake from only one glass without going overboard on sugar. Compared to other supermarket brands, Shaken Udder chooses to refrain from adding any unwanted nasties from their ingredients, allowing a large amount of milk and gaining the familiar vanilla taste from Vanilla seeds.

We also tried the Chocolate version; and we absolutely loved the strong chocolate taste. It reminded us of Belgian chocolate but the milkshake is still less than 5% sugar, with no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives, one glass is sure to take care of those mid-afternoon sugar cravings from it’s velvet chocolatey taste. If you need any more reasons to purchase the milkshakes they are suitable for vegetarians, gluten free and only uses the best British milk, supporting British produce.

Shake off the sugar cravings with Shaken Udder Uber Udder Vanilla or Chocolate, they can be purchased from a variety of supermarkets including Waitrose for £2.29.

Purity Room Diffuser - ShuiMe

We always have some sort of fragrance, here in the office of The Amazing Blog. Recently, the office has sweetly smelt a mixture of citronella, lemongrass, and sweet basil. This is thanks to the Purity Room Diffuser, by ShuiMe, which intensely fills the room with its fresh scent.

It is one of the three different scents from their aromatherapy reed diffuser range with a special purposes to each one of them. An interesting property of the Purity Room Diffuser would be that its wondrous scent steers your mind-set to a clearer and more positive path, whilst expunging negative vibes. Another poitive aspect, is in the packaging, as the actual bottle is attractively patterned and will liven up your space, especially an office, from experience. In addition, the reason we suggest putting this in a space where you work is because the particular citrus scent will unclutter your thoughts, as well as, sharpen your focus. The other two options are the Relax and Uplift diffusers which are also a mixture of lovely, earthy and flowery, tones.

Filter the negatives waves to make room for the positives ones with the Purity Room Diffuser by ShuiMe now for £45.00 here.

Self-Watering Single Potted Herb Keeper – Cole & Mason

Here at The Amazing Blog we are always looking for new and useful time-saving accessories. That is why we were intrigued when we discovered the Self-Watering Single Potted Herb Keeper from Cole & Mason.

The Self-Watering pot is a fuss-free kitchen tool that increases the life-span of your fresh herbs. How does it work? The concept is very simple; you just have to put your potted herbs in the white container over a hydro felt pad. This hydro felt pad allows the plant to absorb water through it as it is needed, as the pad is connected to a vessel that can be filled with water through the spout. Water will evaporate from the vessel at a slower rate as it is covered, meaning less time needed for you to spend watering your herbs.  It also looks lovely sitting on your kitchen benchtop, with grey and white to perfectly complement the green of your thriving herbs.
