Waitrose, Provides Clarence Court Eggs To Rocco Forte’s Brown’s Hotel In An Attempt To Produce The World’s Largest Scotch Egg

Waitrose, in collaboration with Rocco Forte’s Brown’s Hotel, has helped make the largest recorded Scotch egg. The supermarket chain supplied special exclusive Clarence Court Ostrich eggs to create the meaty mélange which weighed in at 6.2kg, the equivalent to a bowling ball.

In order to break the previous record, Clarence Court called upon Lee Streeton, Executive Chef at Rocco Forte’s Brown’s Hotel. Using a number of fresh groceries including 1.7kg ostrich egg, 4kg of Gloucester Old Spot sausage-meat, 940g of haggis and 800g of breadcrumbs for the coating, the entire cooking process took more than eight hours, with ninety minutes alone spent boiling the egg.

The ultimate picnic food, the Scotch egg is a prime example of authentic, indigenous, hearty British produce. Contrary to popular belief, it was not invented by the Scots but rather the London food shop Fortnum & Mason, who first concocted this portable version of sausage and eggs in 1738.

Clarence Court Director, Lisa Rowe, said, “As industry innovators, we are delighted to be able to work with Rocco Forte’s Brown’s Hotel to produce this super-sized snack. The ostrich egg is the latest – and largest – addition to our range, so it only seemed fitting to let Lee Streeton have a bit of fun with it and cook up something rather different for The Albemarle carving trolley.”

Streeton added, “Genuine Scotch eggs epitomise good, honest food, so what could be better than making an extra large version using the best of British? As a chef that is passionate about sourcing local fresh foods, it has been enormous fun to re-create this much-loved picnic staple and champion a food that has been part of our history for hundreds of years.”

About Waitrose:
Waitrose has 191 branches in its estate including stores in Wales and Scotland and has just been named Britain’s Best High Street Retailer at the Which? Awards 2008 and Supermarket of the Year by the RSPCA at its Good Business Awards in 2008. The food shop has won more major wine awards than any other retailer and was named Supermarket of the Year 2007 at the Decanter World Wine Awards.

Waitrose sells over 1,700 organic products, over 60 different types of fish and seafood and more than 100 different cheeses. The food shop also enjoys one of the best reputations for dealing with farmers and suppliers

Estella, a leading retailer of Baby Clothes, Announces Charity Partnership With Action Against Hunger

Estella, a leading retailer of Baby Clothes, Designer Children’s Clothes & Unique Kids Clothes, today announced the debut of their back to school clothes and partnership with Action Against Hunger, a charity devoted to fighting hunger in more than 40 countries. For every purchase made from Estella this Fall and Winter, the retailer of contemporary fashions designed for children, will donate one Plumpy’Nut to a child in need.

While Estella’s campaign will not eradicate childhood starvation, we can help raise awareness and save a few lives,” added Mr. Chukwulozie.

One of the first lines to arrive that will benefit this hunger fighting program is European designer Album di Famiglia. Estella introduced this European designer to New York and online in 2003 and has now collaborated with Album di Famiglia to launch a line of baby onesie rompers. Exclusive to Estella, these striped one-piece rompers are modern, stylish, cashmere soft, yet practical and easy to care for. Made with machine washable cotton, these one-piece bodysuits make great baby gifts or baby shower gifts.

With the launch of its back to school season, Estella is also proud to debut European designer, Mormor. This Danish designer makes its US debut at Estella with hand knit baby sweaters, baby knits, kids sweaters and kids knits. In addition, Estella will be making other prominent designer debuts later this fall with the inclusion of Add; Belgian artisans Max & Lola and Simple Kids; French designers Hartford Kids & Bon Bon; British designer Caramel Baby & Child; American designers Kit+Lili, Kingsley and One Kid (luxury, yet affordable Baby coats, girls coats and boys coats); and many other high end brands perfect for Fall apparel and back to school attire.

With an appearance in September’s Cookie Magazine, Estella’s Back to School and Fall Season is already making a splash with significant contributions going towards the Action Against Hunger campaign. “Our goal at Estella is to provide customers with unique fashions that are distinctive yet practical, comfortable, yet contemporary and to do so with civic responsibility. With our collaboration with Action Against Hunger and prominent designer collections, we have squarely met this goal this season.” stated Mr. Chukwulozie.

Easy decorating tips and trends for the coming spring season

Leading online retailer ShopTableLamps.com announces easy decorating tips and trends for the coming spring season.

Winter weather is still a force in many parts of the country, but spring, and spring decorating isn’t far off. With many homeowners looking to brighten their home with the latest decorating colors and beat the winter blues, ShopTableLamps.com, a leading online retailer of decorative table lamp and desk lamp lighting, offers these handy tips for giving rooms a spring clean decorating makeover.

* Color is a given for all spring decorating, but even more so this year, as a bright palate of lilac, raspberry, orange and golden yellow dominates. Consumers should look for contemporary table lamps with shades or lamps bases in these in-style colors and tones to brighten their rooms.
* Traditional Tiffany style lighting remains as popular as ever. New, bold designs feature Tiffany art shades in vibrant purple and green colors that bring a fresh look to the traditional Tiffany, Mission and Arts and Crafts look.
* With designers using more earth tones on the walls and ceilings, they are using colorful lamp bases and shades as a color anchor in room designs. Especially popular this year are ceramic lamps in bright colors.
* Earthy wood tones are also popular in lighting designs. Wood pole table lamps with a hint of the tropical help coordinate with bamboo flooring, rattan furniture and other wood-tone home décor items.
* If color isn’t your thing, new glass body table lamps and monochromatic black and white base designs offer soothing treats for the eye. These lamp designs mesh well with the suddenly popular Hollywood décor style, as well as look great in more contemporary settings.
* Function is what it’s about in desk lamp lighting, but don’t overlook the opportunity to add color to your home office or work space as well. New contemporary desk lamps come in a rainbow of colors, from vivid greens to cool blues, to help bring a little color therapy to the desk.
