The Cadbury Creme Egg McFlurry is back for another year.
As we inch closer to springtime and the Easter holidays, it's only natural that our consumption of ice cream and easter eggs should skyrocket- right? Ensuring that every town in the UK gets their sweet craving fix in one irresistible combination, McDonald's has released a limited-edition menu just in time for Easter.
And yes, it includes the Creme Egg McFlurry.

McDonald’s has also revealed that it's not just dessert that's getting a springtime upgrade, some tasty new options have been added to the menu just in time for Easter, and a few fan-favourites are also making a return.
Earlier this week, the popular fast food chain confirmed that fans will once again be able to indulge in the limited-edition dessert, which is made from dairy ice cream, swirled with Cadbury milk chocolate pieces, and the trademark gooey Cadbury Crème Egg fondant sauce running all the way through.
The Cadbury Creme Egg McFlurry comes in both the regular and mini size, and will be available from just 99p.
Although the McFlurry is undoubtedly one of the most-anticipated returning menu items with Easter being a few weeks away, it’s not the only thing due for a comeback, as McDonald’s has also confirmed that the popular Big Tasty burger is making an appearance, as well as a brand-new BBQ version.

The Big Tasty – which is known to rotate on the menu on a limited basis throughout the year – is made with 100% British and Irish beef, melty cheese made with Emmental, tomato, lettuce, slivered onions and lashings of Big Tasty sauce, all sandwiched between a sesame seed bun.
The Big Tasty, the Big Tasty Bacon, and the brand-new Big Tasty BBQ will all be available on the menu for a limited time only.
The original will be priced at £4.89, while a version with bacon, or BBQ will be priced at £5.39.

Joining the Big Tasty range on the new menu, the Homestyle Crispy Chicken Burger will be making a long-awaited return for £4.39 each, as will the equally-loved Cadbury Caramel McFlurry at 99p, and some brand-new Chilli Cheese Bites, which will set you back just £1.99 per portion.
The Chilli Cheese Bites come in a portion of four, are coated in a crispy batter, and served with a rich tomato dip.
All these menu items are now available at McDonald’s branches across the UK.

Beloved Leeds takeaway Souvlaki Corner to open new restaurant in Morley next month
A new Souvlaki Corner is set to open in south Leeds.
If you're a Leeds local who loves food, then you'll have most likely heard and dined at Souvlaki Corner.
It's an absolute gem of a restaurant and takeaway, situated in Wortley selling fabulous authentic Greek food at a great price.
And now they're opening a new site in the nearby town of Morley which is going to be even bigger and better. Get in.
The new site will feature a bigger space with more seating, offering both dine-in and takeaway options, as well as a brand-new bar.

Now you're talking our language.
Souvlaki Corner told The Hoot: "We’re excited to confirm that Souvlaki Corner will be opening a new site in Morley, Leeds. Our targeted opening is in around four weeks, although we don’t have an exact opening date yet and will confirm this closer to the launch.
"One of the highlights of the new restaurant will be a traditional Greek spit where we will cook whole lamb in the proper Greek way. It will be cooked over charcoal to give the authentic Greek flavour that people would experience in Greece.

"Our chefs are Greek, bringing authentic knowledge and experience from Greece. The interior design will also reflect the style of the Greek islands, so when people visit they will feel like they are stepping into a little part of Greece."
They continued: "Souvlaki Corner was created to bring authentic Greek street food to Leeds, focusing on freshly grilled souvlaki, gyros, and traditional flavours served quickly and affordably. Since launching our first location, the response from customers has been fantastic, and Morley felt like the natural next step as we continue to grow."
Neighbourhood Leeds bistro hailed as ‘a bit horny’ and ‘brilliant’ by national critic Camilla Long
Clementine Hall
Food critic Camilla Long visited Leeds for her latest review for The Times with her sights set on Horsforth's finest - Bavette Bistro.
Ever since opening back in 2024, Bavette Bistro nestled in the leafy suburb of Horsforth has made waves across the country for its sheer brilliance.
It's pretty much received five star reviews across the board and been handed awards from left, right and centre. And rightly so.
The Good Food Guide crowned Bavette the best local restaurant of 2024, and Michelin handed them a well deserved Bib Gourmand - so it's safe to say it's not just us who think it's really something special.
So it was only a matter of time until The Times popped in for a review, and this one is truly glowing.

The review labels Bavette as "warm, unmannered and unpretentious" as well as "authentically French".
Long describes the food as "gorgeous, confident, surprising" with a menu that "isn’t too long" and "filled with sturdy, noble dishes, whiffing mightily of the sea and the soil."
It continues: "All of it made with generosity and cheer, served fast by nimble waiters, with a long, if slightly eccentric, wine list. To bang out French dishes with this much fiddly detail and to do it to a full room is not easy. Yet all four courses came in under two hours, for about £75 a head, which in London terms is nothing.
"It’s not that this place was perfect, it’s that it was decidedly not perfect. A bit too much chat about the menus; the oeufs in the meurette not quite runny enough. But the point is: it didn’t matter. All of it came charmingly together. It felt relaxed, just right."
The review is then wrapped up with a pleasing five stars, the cherry on top of the cake.
It's a review only restaurants can dream of, and we can't think of a more deserving team - congratulations Bavette.
