You’ve got to admit that one of the best things about Christmas is all the food.
But while the spotlight is usually on pigs in blankets and turkey, for those with a sweet tooth, it’s all about dessert.
Some people might go for traditional Christmas puddings or even make their ownfancy desserts.
However, there are plenty of delicious showstoppers available from the supermarket.
We’re talking elaborate chocolate creations, decadent cheesecakes and even luxurious vegan treats.
