Sweets from Heaven
We all love a bit of something sweet and delicious every once in a while – as the lovely Helen, owner of the Fudge Fairy knows. Last month saw Helen open
up the second branch of Fudge Fairy in Caldicot - The Fudge Fairy Sweet Shop. It’s offi cial – her delicious
homemade fudge is taking over the world! Established in 2010, the fi rst
branch opening in Magor, selling homemade fudge in a wide variety of fl avours, as well as a huge selection of retro sweets, gifts and treats. The new store in Caldicot
opened on August 5 and early indications seem to show the second branch will be just as popular as the fi rst. If you haven’t tried any

Why not conjure up this splendid recipe using ingredients from Riverford Organic?
Cherry Tomato Tarte Tatin
Ingredients 1 tbsp olive oil 40g butter 1 tsp caster sugar 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar ½ whole head of garlic (cut in half crossways) 4 sprigs fresh marjoram or oregano 250g cherry tomatoes cut in half through the middle 1 tbsp dry breadcrumbs 320g sheet all-butter puff pastry, rolled out to 3-4mm thick 1 egg, beaten Extra virgin olive oil, to serve
Method 1. Heat the oil and butter in a 23cm ovenproof frying pan. Add the sugar and balsamic and season with salt and pepper. 2. Put the garlic bulb cut side up in the middle. Scatter over the marjoram and arrange the tomatoes cut side down around the garlic. 3. Cook for 5 mins. Sprinkle over the breadcrumbs. 4. Cut the pastry to the same size as the pan, lay it over the top of the tomatoes and tuck in the edges. Brush with beaten egg. 5. Bake in a 220°C oven for 20 mins, until golden and crisp. 6. Remove from the oven and leave to sit for 5 mins. 7. Run a knife around the edge of the pastry to loosen it, place a plate over the top and tip it out. You may need to do some tomato patching, depending on how non-stick your pan is. 8. Cut into slices, squeezing out the garlic to spread over the tarte.
