If there’s a better breakfast than chewy toast thickly slathered with creamy butter, then I’ve yet to meet it. But it has to be good butter and Bellefield Butter is seriously good butter. Cultured for 8 days before churning, it comes in plain and pohutukawasmoked flavours. $10.50 for 100gm from Sabato and at Hamilton and Cambridge farmers markets. sabato.co.nz
That’s not to love with these scrummy Kea Cookies that contain no gluten, wheat, dairy or egg and are suitable for vegans. Flavours are Lemon Coconut, Choc Chip, Double Choc Chip, Macadamia, Hokey Pokey, Gingernut, Vanilla, Almond, Peanut Brownie and Coconut. $5.99 for a 250g pack, they are available at selected supermarkets, health food and specialty stores.
