Salted caramel ice cream

Tate & Lyle

Ice cream is one of those things that just never disappoints. From the first smooth spoonful to the last, it’s hard to find a better way to treat yourself. 

But what makes ice cream such a hit? Well, it’s the ultimate comfort food, the kind that fits just as well on a quiet night in as it does at a celebration. Feeling a bit down? A scoop of your favourite ice cream flavour might be all you need to lift your spirits. Celebrating something special? Ice cream adds that little extra something to the occasion. 

One of the biggest myths about ice cream is that it’s difficult to make. In reality, creating your own homemade ice cream can be as easy or as involved as you want it to be. 

There’s no need to feel intimidated by fancy ice cream makers or recipes that look like they require a degree in chemistry. Ice cream is very forgiving—you really just need a simple ice cream base, some Tate & Lyle Sugar, and a bit of patience. 

If you’ve never tried making homemade ice cream before, you’re in for a treat! 

Got an ice cream maker gathering dust somewhere? Now’s the time to break it out. It’s a fantastic investment if you’re serious about your scoops. The machine does most of the work for you, churning your cream mixture into a smooth and creamy delight in about 30 minutes. 

One of our favourite recipes is this easy salted caramel ice cream. With just a few ingredients, including Tate & Lyle’s signature sugars, this homemade ice cream recipe delivers a rich, buttery flavour that’s sure to impress. 

Easy salted caramel ice cream

You can still whip up delicious ice cream without a machine. This method involves making your cream mixture, adding it to a freezer-friendly container and then placing it in the freezer, stirring it occasionally to break up any ice crystals. Think of it as a good excuse to pop into the kitchen and check on your creation (and maybe sneak a taste). 

Our homemade vanilla ice cream recipe is perfect for this method. It’s rich, creamy, and the perfect blank canvas for any mix-ins you fancy. Plus, it’s great on its own or as a base for all your sundae dreams. 

Or why not try our brown sugar vanilla ice cream recipe? It’s got all the velvety richness of traditional vanilla, but with a deeper, slightly caramelised flavour thanks to the Tate & Lyle Dark Brown Soft Sugar.

The beauty of homemade ice cream is that you’re the chef – and there are no rules. You’re only limited by your imagination (and maybe the contents of your kitchen cupboard). 

Vanilla ice cream is always a winner, but why stop there? Add in some mini chocolate chips for a classic twist, swirl in peanut butter for a bit of salty-sweet goodness, or get fancy with a dash of peppermint extract for a refreshing kick.  

On a warm sunny day when you’re craving something cool and creamy, you could pop to the shops and grab a tub of something. But with a little bit of time and the help of Tate & Lyle Sugars, your freezer will soon be stocked with irresistible homemade ice cream that will be a sweet hit, scoop after scoop. 

So why wait? Grab a bag of our high-quality sugars and get started!

Looking for a refreshing way to beat the heat? Iced tea is the perfect solution. Whether you’re a tea enthusiast or looking for the perfect drink for the summer, keep reading to discover our favourite iced tea recipes and how to make them.

Iced teas are a go-to choice for many during the warmer months because they are an enjoyable and refreshing drink. The natural flavours of tea, combined with the chill of ice, provide a delightful alternative to plain water.

 

Iced tea can be enjoyed plain, sweetened, or infused with a variety of ingredients. This versatility makes it suitable for different tastes and occasions, from casual drinks to formal events. Whether you’re hosting a summer barbecue or enjoying a quiet afternoon, there’s an iced tea for every moment.

Did you know that all tea comes from the same plant? The way it’s grown, picked and processed is what creates all the different types.

You can use virtually any type of tea for iced tea, each bringing its own unique flavour profile.

Fully oxidised for deep flavours, black tea is what’s used in standard tea bags. It brews up a dark, coppery colour and typically has a richer, more robust flavour than other teas. Black tea is higher in caffeine, ideal for a morning boost or afternoon pick-me-up.

Green tea offers a sweet, fresh flavour. It often brews up a light green or yellow colour and has a milder taste. Green tea contains about half as much caffeine as black tea.

The least processed and most delicate, white tea has a subtle flavour and a crisp, clean finish. It tends to be very low in caffeine, making it a gentle, soothing choice.

This partially oxidised tea ranges from fruity to roasted flavours, placing it somewhere between black and green teas. Oolong can brew up anywhere from a pale yellow to a rich amber colour and offers a complex, layered taste.

Aged and partially fermented, pu-erh tea has a rich, earthy flavour. It brews up an inky brown-black colour and it’s fairly high in caffeine, similar to black tea.

Although it’s not technically tea, herbal infusions can be enjoyed any time of day and provide a creative twist to traditional iced tea. They are caffeine free and offer a wide range of vibrant and aromatic flavours.

Popular options include mint for a refreshing touch, chamomile for a calming effect, and hibiscus for a tart and tangy flavour.

Cold brewing offers a smooth and mellow flavour by gently extracting the tea’s flavours without the bitterness, but it does require more time.

1. In a large jug, combine the tea bags and cold water. Cover and put in the fridge to chill, leaving it to steep for at least 8 hours, but no longer than 12.
2.  After steeping, remove the tea bags and serve over ice, or keep it in the fridge until you’re ready to drink it.

Glossary

Steeping is a term used to describe the process of water absorbing the colour and flavours of the tea.

Add strips of lemon, lime, or orange zest while your tea steeps. This will infuse the natural citrus oils into your tea, adding a bright, zesty flavour.

Incorporate fresh fruit like berries, peaches, lemon slices or orange slices for a sweet, fruity twist. The natural sugars and flavours of the fruit will work beautifully with the tea.

Gently crush fresh herbs like mint, basil or lemon thyme at the bottom of your cup before adding iced tea. This releases the herbs’ natural flavours and adds a refreshing scent.

For a unique flavour profile, try adding spices like cinnamon, cardamom, star anise, or ginger. A spiced iced tea can provide a warming contrast to the coolness, making it a versatile drink for different seasons.

Elderflower brings a delicate, sweet flavour that pairs beautifully with many types of tea. Submerge a handful of elderflower into your tea and let it infuse as it cools down, or add elderflower cordial for a floral note.

Replace the cold water with flavoured sparkling water or fruit juice to add a fizzy, fruity twist to your homemade iced tea.

Ever thought your toast could use a bit more pizzaz? Look no further! Marmalade might just be the perfect solution. Whether you’re a traditionalist or an adventurous foodie, the countless varieties of marmalade are sure to bring a burst of citrusy joy to your mornings.

In this article, discover a selection of delicious marmalade recipes and tips to help you create the perfect spread.

 

Creating the perfect marmalade only requires just a few ingredients. Understanding the role each one plays will help you achieve the best results in flavour and texture.

The foundation of any marmalade is citrus fruit, which is what distinguishes it from jam. While Seville oranges are traditionally used for their robust flavours, you can use a variety of citrus fruits such as lemons, limes, and grapefruits.

Sugar is the key ingredient that preserves the marmalade and gives it its signature consistency. Not all sugars are the same, and choosing the right one is crucial.

Avoid caster sugar, as its fine crystals dissolve too quickly. Jam sugar, which contains added pectin (a thickening agent), is unnecessary for marmalade, as citrus fruits contain high levels of natural pectin.

Tate & Lyle Preserving Sugar, with its larger, slower-dissolving crystals, reduces the need for constant stirring and prevents burning—ensuring a smooth cooking process and a clear, beautiful marmalade.

Water is a vital ingredient in the marmalade-making process as it softens the peel and helps extract the pectin from the fruit. The right amount of water ensures your marmalade achieves the perfect setting point without being too thick or too runny.

With the right tools and techniques, you can create a stunning marmalade. Here are some essential tips to ensure your marmalade turns out perfectly every time.

Every successful marmalade begins with the right tools. Using a large, heavy-bottomed pan is crucial, as it ensures your marmalade cooks evenly and prevents burning.

The heavy bottom disperses heat for an even boil, and the wide deep sides help the evaporation process. A preserving pan is ideal for this purpose, but a sturdy large saucepan will also suffice.

Whether you prefer thin, medium, or thick-cut peel, uniformity is crucial for even cooking and a superior final texture. Ensure your shreds are consistent, as this will produce the best results.

Proper sterilisation ensures that your marmalade remains fresh and safe to eat for months.

Wash your jars, lids and rubber seals (if your jars have them) in hot soapy water, rinse and then place on a baking tray. After that, put them in a preheated oven at 140°C (120°C fan) for 20 minutes.

You should also sterilise all utensils that will contact your marmalade in boiling water for a few minutes.

A sugar thermometer is a really easy way to check if your marmalade is ready (it’s usually set between 104°C and 105.5°C). But if you don’t have a sugar thermometer, there are traditional methods you can use to check your marmalade:

• The wrinkle test: Chill some saucers in the freezer. After boiling the marmalade for 15 minutes, spoon a bit of the mixture onto a cold saucer, let it cool for two minutes, and push it with your finger. If the surface wrinkles, it’s set. If not, boil for another five minutes and repeat.

• The flake test: Dip a wooden spoon into the marmalade and let it drip back into the pan. If the marmalade drops in flakes, it’s ready.

Overcooking can ruin the texture and flavour of your marmalade. It’s a good idea to remove your pan from the heat while you test it to see if it’s set. Leaving it to boil as you do so could risk boiling away too much water, leaving you with a thick, rubbery marmalade.

The final step in marmalade making is potting. Proper potting techniques ensure that your marmalade is well-preserved and looks as good as it tastes.

Let the marmalade settle for 15 minutes in the pan before potting. This helps suspend the peel evenly throughout the jars.

Use reliable oven gloves and a stainless steel wide-mouth funnel to safely pour the hot marmalade into the sterilised jars. Once cooled, tighten the lids and clean any residue from the jar exteriors with a warm, wet cloth.

Now that you’re equipped with the essential tips for making perfect marmalade, it’s time to get creative in the kitchen. Here are some delicious marmalade recipes to inspire you.

Experience the authentic taste of homemade Seville orange marmalade. This recipe brings out the best of these unique oranges, combining their vibrant flavour with a touch of sweetness.

First things first, what’s the best way to use coffee syrups?

Everybody has their own methods, but we like to add our syrups to coffee like this:

1.) Finish brewing your coffee.

2.) Measure out your syrup with a tablespoon. (The amount you choose here is up to you, but we suggest using half a tablespoon for your average mug.)

3.) Give it a mix.

4.) Drink up!

Et voilà! It’s as simple as that.

Ginger marmalade has a unique flavour that combines the sweetness of traditional marmalade with the warm, spicy notes of ginger. It’s a great addition to your kitchen cupboard, providing an exciting twist to both sweet and savoury dishes.

Keep reading to learn all about marmalade and try your hand at our simple ginger marmalade recipe.

Although often confused, jam and marmalade have distinct differences. Jam can be made from any fruit—and even vegetables. The ingredients are either puréed or chopped and then cooked with jam sugar, creating the soft texture we all know and love.

Marmalade, on the other hand, is made exclusively from citrus rind and juice, leading to a thicker, more chunky texture and a zesty flavour kick.

Traditionally, marmalade is made from Seville oranges, renowned for their rich flavour and strong citrus aroma. These oranges have become synonymous with the beloved character Paddington Bear, famous for his love for Seville orange marmalade —always stashing a jar in his suitcase and keeping a marmalade sandwich in his hat, in case of emergencies!

Our gingered orange marmalade recipe is simply divine, good enough to earn the approval of Paddington Bear himself! Created with just four ingredients—fresh ginger, oranges, lemons and Tate & Lyle Pure Cane Preserving Sugar—this marmalade is gloriously easy to make.

Tate & Lyle Pure Cane Preserving Sugar is the secret to a perfect marmalade. Unlike jam sugar, it has no added pectin, which makes it ideal for use with ingredients containing high pectin levels (like citrus fruits).

It’s a granulated sugar with large, slow-dissolving crystals that minimises stirring, prevents burning, and produces less froth—making your marmalade-making experience as smooth as possible.

Ginger marmalade makes an excellent base for marinades, adding both sweetness and heat to meats and vegetables. It works particularly well with chicken, pork, beef, and even seafood like shrimp or salmon.

Ginger marmalade can add a burst of flavour to your baked goods. Use it to fill muffins or layer cakes, bringing a tangy and spicy touch that enhances every bite.

For instance, Seville orange marmalade, cheddar, and chilli muffins uses marmalade to complement the savoury cheddar and spicy chilli flavours, creating a unique and delicious muffin.

When it comes to quick and satisfying meals, warmed tortilla wraps filled with tender beef are hard to beat. With their sizzling beef slices and a variety of fresh ingredients, beef wraps are destined to become a staple for family dinners or gatherings with friends.

In this article, discover our mouthwatering sizzling beef fajitas recipe and some alternative ingredients and toppings to make the dish truly yours.

Sizzling beef fajitas recipe

Beef wraps offer a delightful blend of flavours and textures, with tender beef, a delicious marinade, and a fresh salsa to add some zing. It’s a dish that offers endless possibilities, letting you adjust the ingredients to suit your taste or whatever ingredients you have on hand.

What makes our beef wrap recipe stand out? Beef is already naturally rich in flavour, but we take it up a notch by marinating it with soy sauce, Tate & Lyle Fairtrade Dark Brown Soft Sugar, garlic, olive oil, lime juice and chilli.

Marinating the beef for at least 30 minutes is a crucial step. It adds a glorious depth of flavour, while the acidic lime juice helps to break down the beef fibres, making the meat tender and succulent.

Tate & Lyle Fairtrade Dark Brown Soft Sugar

While our beef wrap recipe is delicious as it is, there’s always room for flexibility. If you’re missing some ingredients or want to try something different, here’s how you can add your own twist.

While Tate & Lyle Fairtrade Dark Brown Soft Sugar is commonly used in beef wraps, why not switch it up with Tate & Lyle Fairtrade Unrefined Demerara Sugar? This light brown sugar has a hint of caramel, providing a unique sweetness and flavour to your dish.

Our recipe contains red onions and bell peppers, but there’s no reason to stop there. Try adding some sliced radishes for an extra crunch, grated carrots for a pop of colour, or thinly sliced cucumbers for a refreshing twist. These extra veggies will bring more texture and freshness to your wraps.

Herbs and spices can dramatically change the flavour profile of your wraps. Try swapping fresh chilli for cayenne pepper for some heat or smoked paprika for a milder, smoky flavour. If coriander isn’t your thing, replace it with parsley for a milder taste, or tarragon for a touch of liquorice.

While beef is a classic choice, you can also use chicken, lamb or tofu. Chicken offers a lighter, leaner option, while lamb provides a rich and robust flavour. And tofu is great for those seeking a plant-based alternative.

Wheat tortilla wraps are the norm, but you can explore other bases. Corn tortilla wraps are gluten-free and add a distinctive flavour. For a low-carb option, you can use lettuce or cabbage leaves, and you could also try pita bread or flatbreads for a Mediterranean twist.

To make your beef wraps truly special, consider switching-up the toppings. Guacamole will add a creaminess, pickled onions will add a tangy bite, and cheese lovers can experiment with different types of cheese for an extra layer of indulgence.

However you make them, this sizzling beef fajitas recipe is guaranteed to be a hit! Don’t forget to use Tate & Lyle Sugars—they’ll give your marinades and sauces the perfect sweetness and texture.

Have you ever hesitated before indulging in your favourite sweet treat or adding sugar to your tea? You’re not alone! The quest for sweetness without the calories is a common challenge, but we have the solution – sucralose sweeteners. Keep reading to find out why this product is a real game-changer for both foods and beverages.

Sucralose, a sugar substitute derived directly from sugar, offers sweetness but with a fraction of the calories.

Tate & Lyle Sucralose Sweeteners bring this option to your kitchen, offering granulated and tablet forms. Read more about Tate & Lyle Sweetener Tablets in this article: Sweeten your life the smart way: Explore Tate & Lyle Sweetener Tablets.

This low-calorie sweetener is much sweeter than standard sugar, which means you don’t need as much to achieve your desired level of sweetness.

A mere ¼ teaspoon (0.5g) of Tate & Lyle Sweetener equates to the sweetness of 1 teaspoon (4g) of sugar. This tells us that this sweetener is 8 times sweeter than sugar by weight.

So, for example, if you wanted to substitute 150g of sugar, we can calculate the equivalent amount of sweetener as follows:

150 ÷ 8 = 18.75g (round it up to 19g)

Here are some common ingredients that you can pair with sweeteners to add to various snacks and small meals like cereal and porridge.

• Unsweetened applesauce: A popular choice for adding moisture and bulk without adding extra calories or sugar. It works well in cakes, muffins, and bread.

• Plain or Greek yoghurt: This can add moisture and a slight tanginess to baked goods and is great in cakes and muffins.

• Mashed ripe bananas: Adds sweetness, moisture, and bulk. They work well in quick breads, muffins, cakes, and pancakes.

Incorporating these requires a touch of experimentation but remember that sweetener is a lot sweeter than Tate & Lyle sugar by weight. You’ll need to take care not to add too much sweetness and overpower other flavours!

Let’s explore how you can use Tate & Lyle Sweetener:

• Hot drinks: Sweeten your hot drinks with just ¼ teaspoon of Tate & Lyle Sweetener for the same sweetness as a full teaspoon of sugar. With just two calories per ¼ teaspoon, it’s the perfect way to enjoy a low calorie beverage.

• Sprinkle on cereal: A sprinkle of Tate & Lyle Sweetener on your cereal offers you a deliciously sweet taste to start your day.

Explore our range of Tate & Lyle Sucralose Sweeteners and take the first step towards reducing your sugar intake.

Are you looking for a way to enjoy your favourite hot beverages without the calories that come with sugar? Well, you’re in for a treat! In this article, discover the benefits of Tate & Lyle Sweetener tablets, an innovative solution that promises sweetness without compromise.

Made with sucralose, Tate & Lyle Sweetener tablets are a zero-calorie sweetener. Designed to effortlessly dissolve in your hot drinks, they’re your new best friend for coffee, tea and more.

Sucralose is an artificial sweetener derived from sugar itself. It’s found in a wide range of processed foods and beverages, from baked goods to diet drinks, offering a sugar-like sweet taste without the added calories.

Sucralose is made by modifying sugar through a chemical process to remove all of the calories while retaining the sweet taste. This process makes it around 600 times sweeter than ordinary sugar, allowing you to use less for the same sweet impact. Each tiny sweetener tablet contains just 0.05g of sucralose, but that delivers the same sweetness as a teaspoon of sugar (4g).

For the perfect sweetness level, we suggest you start with one tablet in your hot drinks, and you can then adjust to taste. With each pack containing 300 tablets, you’re all set to sweeten around 300 drinks!

Wondering if sweetener tablets are safe? Absolutely! Tate & Lyle’s commitment to quality ensures that every tablet is not just delicious, but also meets rigorous safety standards.

Before they make their way to your cup, these sweeteners have been thoroughly assessed, offering a safe and delightful alternative to traditional sugar.
