"I had my first taste of Sally Williams' nougat two weeks ago. I was in Selfridges, shopping for Christmas sweets. As per usual I took a chance and asked the shop assistant whether there was any nougat in stock? I say “took a chance” because it is amazing how
nougat can be hard to find in London. Surprisingly, her response was
“yes” and she directed me towards a display table where there were boxes of nougat.
I noticed that the product was on launch but as trial samples were not available I decided to make a small purchase, as I had never heard of Sally Williams. Also, in the past there have been many occasions when I have been disappointed by the nougat I have purchased on spec. Either it has been tasteless, too hard, not enough fruit or nuts, etc.
As soon as I could, I opened the box of Sally Williams' honey nougat and sampled a piece. All I can say: it was amazing - the best nougat I have ever had and I have eaten mounds of the damn stuff in my lifetime!
The taste, texture and freshness of the product was mind blowing! How can I describe it to you?!?! Well…imagine this not so gooey, creamy, pleasantly sweet, heavenly, melt in the mouth, silky mixture studded with crunchy fulsome and wholesome almonds, sandwiched between two thin crispy wafers. I know that I am not doing it justice but this nougat was nougat to die for and therefore deserves my FTGFOP accolade. (Far Too Good For Ordinary People!).
Love nougat? You must love life! Thank you Sally Williams and long live your delicious production of nougat!" -
