Lemon Melting Moments + Review

This recipe I’m sharing today is again highlighting the importance of using good quality ingredients in your baking. I received samples of both Unsalted and Salted butter from Wyke Farms asking me to review them in two recipes, one for each type of butter. 

I love butter ,we always keep a block of good salted butter in our butter dish for spreading thickly on hot toast and when I go to bake I like to use the same quality of butter. The better your ingredients the better your baked good will taste. It’s a fact and mantra every baker should go by.

Wkye Farms are nestled in the glorious countryside of Somerset where they produce their own cheeses and more recently butter. Each Wkye Farm product comes with the Red Tractor Logo which makes it a part of the Red Tractor Assurance Scheme. This scheme offers full tractability of products from farm to pack. The Red Tractor Logo also indicates that their award-winning cheddar is made using milk from British farms only. Another thing that the Red Tractor logo means is that all their animals have unlimited access to fresh, clean drinking water, they have well-balanced diets and their living conditions are safe and comfortable.

All these things clearly show in their products. Their butter blocks have a vivid golden hue and taste just as butter should, rich and creamy. The Salted butter has the right amount of salt, it’s subtle and not over-powering at all. It adds a lovely light salty touch to these delicate sandwich biscuits.

This recipe is such the perfect kind to highlight a great quality butter. Seeing as these biscuits uses a whole pack of butter to make them, your definitely going to notice the flavour. Melting Moments really do melt in the mouth, they taste so buttery, crumbly and are very light. I filled these with a lemon cream filling and the tanginess of the lemon compliments the rich, creaminess of the butter.

I loved these Lemon Melting Moments, they are rich yet light, they really do melt in the mouth and are easier than you’d think they are to make. As with a lot of things, I don’t know why I didn’t make them sooner.
