Bitter is the new sweet
It’s predicted that bitter-tasting food and drink items will be a trend this year. Aperol Spritz cocktails, black coffee, char-grilled meat and dark chocolate will be on the menu. The move away from food with too much sugar as well as people’s fascination with different and more natural flavours has meant that there is an increased interest in food with a more bitter profile. Try out one of our delicious dark chocolate bakes on page 60.
BEAUTY SLEEP IN A JAR
Sleep is a must for cellular regeneration and restoration, as we recently wrote in Ideas. Without it you will have blurred contours, a dull, lacklustre skin, uneven skin tone, redness and enlarged pores, all of which make you look old before your time.
