The treat dessert has beenm described as “Sweet and Crunchy” that conmes with toffee sauce and topped with a caramelised biscuit crumb.

Shoppers have expressed their excitement at the new release from Tesco.

A post on Facebook group Food Finds UK read: “NEW CARAMELISED BISCUIT ICE CREAM spotted in TESCO!!”

One fellow shopper commented: “That looks great!”

Another customer said: “Need to get this.”

It comes after  a new Reese’s Peanut Butter ice-cream was spotted at Tesco.

The American chocolate, which features milk chocolate and peanut butter, comes in many forms but now it appears it is expanding its frozen range.

One eagle-eyed customer shared the news on social media that the tubs are available to buy at Tesco.

Writing in a social media post they said: “This tub is incredible.

“Smooth and creamy Reese’s peanut butter ice cream with loads of chocolate pieces throughout the tub, tastes like pure Reese’s goodness. Now available at Tesco.”

Meanwhile, Morrisons is sending shoppers into a frenzy with a jaw-dropping ice cream deal that’s too sweet to miss.

The supermarket has slashed the price of Ben & Jerry’s tubs to just £1 — a massive 81% off the usual £5.50 price tag.

It comes after shoppers have also rushed to Morrisons to get their hands on a viral “Dubai chocolate” cake bar.

The supermarket has dropped an exciting new pistachio product as the food trend sweeps the internet.

Some shoppers have snapped up bars of Pistachio Kunafa Dubai Chocolate cake.

Netflix bosses scrambled to re-book post-Baftas party after blaze at celeb haunt Chiltern Firehouse

NETFLIX will host their BAFTA afterparty at swanky hotel The Twenty Two after original venue Chiltern Firehouse burnt down.

Organisers of the coveted bash scrambled to book the luxury location and are hoping to easily transfer everything they had already set up.

A fire broke out on Friday evening at the Chiltern Firehouse hotel which is popular with A-listers[/caption]

The event was thrown into chaos when a fire broke out on Friday evening at the Chiltern Firehouse hotel, which is popular with A-listers including Sir Elton John and David Beckham.

More than 100 people were evacuated.

The two locations are just a 12 minute walk from one another in central London.

A source said: “Who could have thought that something so awful would happen at Chiltern.

“Netflix organisers were in shock but they acted quickly and managed to secure The Twenty Two.

“It’s close to Chiltern so they’re hoping they can transfer everything they had already set up quite easily. It’s a heroic effort by all involved.

“They still want to throw the best BAFTA after party, even if their original choice burnt down.”

Guests at the party will be served BAFTA themed margaritas, French 75s and a cocktail called Clair de Lune as well as Lindisfarne rock oysters.

The Twenty Two is described as “a luxurious haven blending cultural elegance with timeless charm in London and New York.”

Set in a storied Edwardian manor on Grosvenor Square, it adds that it is “a cultural space dedicated to the art of lingering.”

It boasts 31 rooms with marble bathrooms and stand-alone baths starting at £515 a night as well as a private members club for those who “delight in the discreet”.

Celebrities previously spotted at the hotel include Jeff Bezos, Tom Cruise, Kylie Jenner, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss.

Actresses Selena Gomez, 32, and Zoe Saldana, 46, had been among those set to check in to Chiltern Firehouse – and are now expected to stay at The Twenty Two.

Speaking about the fire that engulfed the hotel, a Firehouse worker said: “Every floor has been destroyed. There’s no roof left, it has basically collapsed in on itself. Only the ground floor is still somewhat intact.

“We’ve heard it will be at least a year before we can even think about opening again.”

Yesterday the street remained wet and littered with debris from the blaze, as crews continued to inspect the damage.

The London Fire Brigade said the blaze started in ducting and spread through the four-storey building.

The roof and third floor were destroyed, while around half of the second floor and a small part of the ground floor were damaged.

One shaken guest said: “I stepped outside and saw thick black smoke pouring out of the windows.

“It was like a disaster movie.”

A local business owner added: “It was really chaotic and scary. The whole day was just a blur. The stress just stank of smoke.

“We could see firefighters kicking down the doors of some of the residences.”

Assistant Commissioner Paul McCourt said: “Crews worked hard over a number of hours in arduous conditions in a complex and historically significant building.

“Firefighters successfully contained the fire to one property, preventing it from spreading to neighbouring properties.

“The cause of the fire is under investigation.”

Four ways to save a lot of dough by making your own loaf of bread

YOU can save a lot of dough by making your own loaf.

And with Real Bread Week under way, here’s all you need to know to give it a go.

Find out how to save a lot of dough by making your own loaf of bread[/caption]

FLOUR POWER: You can make a satisfying loaf with the most basic ingredients.

Strong bread flour, fast-acting yeast and a little salt are the essentials. To find out how to make a simple loaf, head to the Real Bread Campaign, sustainweb.org.

Along with the ingredients, you need a generous dose of patience, as even the most straightforward loaf can take up to half a day to prove.

EASY SPEEDY: You can still enjoy a fresh slice if you’re tight for time. It is easy to turn around a loaf of soda bread in around 45 minutes.

You just need to mix 350g plain flour, a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda and a teaspoon of salt.

Add a 285ml tub of buttermilk (or use plain yoghurt instead) and mix to make a dough.

Shape into a loaf, make a deep cross almost all the way through the middle and bake on a floured baking tray for around 30 minutes at 170C.

FLAT BREAD: It’s easy to impress with homemade flatbreads, to serve with dips and curries.

Knead together 350g self-raising flour, a teaspoon of baking powder and 350g natural yoghurt. Divide your mixture into six pieces and flatten with a rolling pin until just a few millimetres thick.

Fry in a hot pan for a few minutes on each side.

OH CRUMBS: We throw away 24 million slices of bread a day.

Use your loaf to create a huge range of delicious dishes from leftovers, from treacle tart to bread and butter pudding, as well as creating crunchy croutons and soothing bread sauce.

Use breadcrumbs to coat chicken or fish, dipped first in flour then beaten eggs, or sprinkle them with cheese to give pasta bakes an instant upgrade.

From slips to bumps and scalds – shower sex risks revealed as couples shun ‘bucket list’ bathroom bonk

FOUR out of ten couples have tried shower sex but it put a dampener on things for half.

Slips, bumps, scalds or twinges meant their lathery loving was a washout, researchers found.

Illustration of shower sex risks: back twinge (28%), slip (20%), bruise (15%), hot water (9%), soap in eyes (5%).

Their poll found that 28 per cent of those who had tried the bathroom bonking said they had hurt their back in the throes of shower seduction.

Twenty per cent had slipped, 15 per cent suffered a bruise, while getting the water temperature right was a problem for nine per cent.

Five per cent got soap suds in their eyes.

Dating site illicitencounters.com polled 2,000 of its members.

The website’s ­Jessica Leoni said: “Sex in the shower is on everybody’s fantasy bucket list.

“But it’s a bit like sex on the beach.

“It can get tricky when passions run high and you find yourself grappling with slippery surfaces.”

She added: “Proceed with caution, invest in a non-slip mat.

“And maybe keep the more ambitious moves for drier ground.”

US clothing giant ‘planning to open 10 new high street stores’ in the UK this year

A US clothing giant is set to open 10 new high street stores in the UK this year.

The Ohio-headquartered retailer currently has 10 British stores and employs around 100 people at its London head office.

Abercrombie & Fitch is considering opening ‘between eight and ten new stores’ in the UK this year[/caption]

It is understood Abercrombie & Fitch is planning to open “between eight and 10 new stores” in the UK this year, including a location on London’s Kensington High Street.

The lifestyle retailer is looking at both new high street and shopping centre locations for its upcoming stores, the company’s EMEA managing director Scott Clarke-Bryan told Drapers.

Abercrombie & Fitch, which also owns Hollister, opened the doors to its two latest London sites less than a month ago.

New stores on Oxford Street, near Bond Street station, and Long Acre, in Covent Garden, welcomed shoppers for the first time on January 31.

The chain also currently has stores on Edinburgh’s George Street, London’s Carnaby Street, and shops in Battersea Power Station, Westfield London, and Manchester’s Trafford Centre.

This is alongside outlets in both Ashford, Kent, and Cheshire Oaks in the Wirral.

Scott said: “We will accelerate our store expansion this year.

“We want to be in the very best locations [and] we are really excited that we’ll be coming to Kensington High Street.”

Outside the UK, the chain is also looking to expand its presence in Germany, where it currently has five stores.

The Middle East is also a target, with the retailer operating two locations in Kuwait, six in the UAE, two in Qatar, and four in Saudi Arabia at present.

This comes as its subsidiary Hollister announced late last month that its only store in Aberdeen, Scotland, would close in February.

The shop, located in Union Square, was the first site for the brand in Scotland when it opened in 2010.

However, the store, which occupies the ground floor unit will soon disappear.

The closure is set to take place at the end of February, but an exact date is yet to be confirmed.

A spokesperson for Abercrombie & Fitch, said: “We can confirm we will be closing our Union Square Hollister store at the end of February.

“We believe stores matter and we are exploring new store opportunities in the UK, including in Aberdeen, to provide a great shopping experience for our customers.”

Hollister’s nearest outlet is located at the popular Braehead Shopping Centre, in Glasgow.

With the closure of the unit in Aberdeen, there are only three remaining stores across the country.

Weekly horoscope for February 16 – February 22: What the stars have in store for every zodiac sign revealed

OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died last year but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes.

ARIES

MAR 21 – APR 20

Aries horoscope symbol.

Secrets are never a good fit for honest Aries, especially not this week as the sun lights up your hidden self.

If you need to share, or to set yourself free, you can choose the perfect moment. 

This leaves space in your week for new goals and a strong certainty of finding the right path. 

Swoony moony love chooses total togetherness, this can surprise partners – and yourself!

TAURUS

APR 21 – MAY 21

Illustration of Taurus zodiac sign.

So much of Jupiter’s new positivity focuses on you and your money matters, so do tap into this to make key cash changes. 

Believing you can stay in control is step one towards doing it. 

You need loyalty in love – if you sense this is less than complete, do act on this. 

Work-wise, you have a layer of instinct that makes your input stand out, especially around a VIP table. 

GEMINI

MAY 22 – JUNE 21

Illustration of Gemini horoscope symbol.

You’re the stand-out sign of the zodiac this week, with Jupiter charm and Pluto mischief – you can say, do and think such outrageous things! 

In love terms, there’s a thirst for adventure that can take careful handling – take a partner along for the thrill, try not to leave them behind. 

Single? Exploring a totally different friendship path wakes up passion that deserves to be celebrated.  

CANCER

JUNE 22 – JULY 22

Illustration of the Cancer zodiac sign.

All week long, the moon is reminding you what really matters to you – from security to trust, to loyal partnership.

So if you’re tempted to stray from these, you have the strength to resist. But do look closer at what this may be telling you. 

The sun hits your travel zone and talking about a dream trip can start to turn to dazzling reality. 

An ”L” cash source can play a part.

LEO

JULY 23 – AUG 23

Illustration of Leo zodiac sign.

Staying as you are is one way through this week – but the sun is suggesting something different. 

As it gets established in your transformation zone it gives you the extra energy to get back on a big change track. 

This can be linked to career, fitness or fashion.

In love, too, good enough is not enough – you deserve the best. 

Cash details do matter, try not to dismiss them. 

VIRGO

AUG 24 – SEPT 22

Illustration of the Virgo zodiac sign.

You have a natural gift for drawing people together this week, and dealing with heavy issues with a unique lightness of touch. 

Do stand by your own principles, though – don’t be drawn into any negative or nasty group-think. 

If you’re in love, adapting a little can be positive, but beware of leaving too much of your unique self behind. 

Single?  Say yes to a sunny Sagittarius. 

LIBRA

SEPT 23 – OCT 23

Illustration of the Libra zodiac sign with all twelve zodiac signs in the background.

With Venus running your happy ever after chart, and the sun now setting a cracking career pace, this is a week to rise up and go for gold in love and life.  

Any indecision can fade when you stop looking for easy answers and accept the right moves may ask a lot of you. 

You do have more than enough planet power to push through. 

Luck prints your name in green.

SCORPIO

OCT 24 – NOV 22

Illustration of Scorpio zodiac sign with other zodiac signs in the background.

You are one of the hardest signs to read or control – now the sun sizzles in your impulsive zone, anything can happen!  But you maintain an inner peace that impresses everyone you meet. 

Passion can take an impulsive turn, towards a person or promise you don’t expect. 

Yet straight away you see the potential, and can work with it. 

The moon gives dreams of numbers special luck. 

SAGITTARIUS

NOV 23 – DEC 21

Illustration of Sagittarius zodiac sign with bow and arrow.

By nature you’re a sign of movement, yet standing still can be your star secret of the week. 

Finding that home for your heart, or your future, is simpler when you let yourself relax and take all the thinking time you need.

The perfect option is already there inside, all you need to do is recognise it.

Friends who play games together also have potential to build a business. 

CAPRICORN

DEC 22 – JAN 20

Capricorn zodiac sign illustration.

Maybe you feel you’ve been talking a lot, yet never seem to be heard – this week, this can change. 

Choosing words carefully, and repeating them as often as you need to, can get a message through, but make extra sure it is the right one. 

Mars influence on your negotiation style can spark unexpected fireworks, and speed up a deal that’s been delayed, maybe for months. 

AQUARIUS

JAN 21 – FEB 18

Aquarius horoscope illustration.

It’s not always easy for you to understand ideas and opinions different to your own – but this week Venus opens your eyes, ears, and heart.

So partners find a shared solution and at work, you can let go of rigid expectations and start to see a flexible way through. 

If you’re single, your dream date seems at first the total opposite. 

Yet you sense there could be something great.

PISCES

FEB 19 – MAR 20

Illustration of the Pisces zodiac sign with all twelve zodiac signs in the background.

When you welcome the sun into your personal star space,  you can feel the warmth but also the challenge. 

No more sitting and waiting – for the next few weeks you are in charge of your own destiny. 

So send that love message and dust down your CV or your fitness plans. 

A gift for finding true beauty in properties, or people,  is ready to be shared.

One simple change can rebalance complicated love situations, according to your symbol, TENSION. 

If you’re single, you may feel pressure to find someone who’s perfect in every way.  But seeing new faces first as friends, and getting to know each other gradually, can ease this tension. 

If you’re settled with someone, then changing yourself, and focusing on shared fun and trying new things together, can relieve any internal pressure in your bond and end a time of wondering if you are truly soulmates.
