If you love a few rashers of bacon, topped with maple syrup, this will be your new favourite breakfast snack.
Bad Brownie have reinvented the meaning of a good breakfast after bringing back their Breakfast Brownie batch.
Made from chocolate, jelly and cookie dough: the realistic full english brownie has all the sweet flavours anyone could wish for- and not a tomato in sight.

It's the perfect stocking filler, novelty gift or just an ingenious brownie designed to serve between six and eight people, or one hungry person in one hurried sitting.
The base itself is a slab or pure dark chocolate brownie, the Bad Brownie signature. Then, the masterpiece is topped with life-like breakfast pieces like bacon, sausage, black pudding and toast.
Everything, right down to satisfying crispy texture of the bacon has been thought of. The toast is made from a fluffy vanilla sponge, carefully toasted to achieve a light, golden crust, and sliced into triangles.
Meanwhile, baked beans have been created from white chocolate chips and suspended in a generous splodge of orange jelly.

The black pudding is much tastier than the meaty original, or at least not as divisive. Think triple chocolate cookie dough brownie, shaped into a traditional black pudding, plated up next to two eggs made from white sugar fondant, with yolks crafted from vibrant orange jelly.
Bad Brownie spoke out about the return of their popular brownie:
"We originally created our English Breakfast brownie for Father’s Day, but it was such a hit that we decided to bring it back in honour of English Breakfast Day on the 2nd of December. Plus, who wouldn’t want this incredible feat of brownie realism as a stocking filler this Christmas?"

These amazing brownie bakes are limited edition and we expect they will sell out quickly.

Yorkshire-set Christmas film by Leeds director starring Richard E. Grant set to hit UK cinemas next month
Clementine Hall
A brand-new Christmas film is hitting cinemas nationwide next month - and it’s a proper Leeds success story.
Jack Spring directed his first feature film at just 19 years old and has spent the last decade carving out a career in independent film, as well as co-founding Leeds-based production company Shush Films.
His first movie, Destination: Dewsbury, was shot just down the road in - you guessed it - Dewsbury. And after moving to Leeds from Grimsby, Jack became determined to build his business from the city, putting down roots and growing his production company here.

Now, after years of working on independent projects, Jack has taken his biggest leap yet with a brand-new Christmas film, Merry Christmas Aubrey Flint.
Set in Yorkshire, Merry Christmas Aubrey Flint follows Aubrey Flint, a reclusive model soldier painter with a lifelong hatred of Christmas, who is sentenced to community service at Willow Lodge - a retirement home on the brink of closure.
Roped into helping with a chaotic production of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, Aubrey clashes with its interesting set of residents...
And the cast is about as star-studded as it gets, featuring Richard E. Grant, John Bradley, Celia Imrie, Adjoa Andoh, Sophia Di Martino, Adrian Rawlins and Kiell Smith-Bynoe.

The heartwarming festive comedy will hit cinemas nationwide on Friday 6 November - a huge milestone for a Leeds-based director and production company, taking a homegrown Yorkshire story to audiences across the country.
You just can't beat a proper wholesome British Christmas film, so you can best believe we'll be watching in the cinema, popcorn in hand.
