Escaped youth tracked by Eagle helicopter, found hiding in New Brighton
The young person who escaped from a youth justice facility in Rolleston has been located...
Okay, I’m about to put you onto one of the most underrated treats at Coupland’s – the Butterscotch Loaf.
At first glance, you think “sweet loaf, perfect with a coffee.” And you’d be right, but after trying it a few different ways this week, I’ve realised this thing can actually turn into a seriously good dessert too.
The loaf itself is soft, rich, buttery, and packed with that sweet butterscotch flavour that somehow feels comforting and indulgent at the same time. But warm it up slightly? Different game entirely.
One night I toasted a thick slice, added a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and drizzled over caramel sauce – honestly, it tasted like something you’d order at a café. The warm loaf with the cold ice cream combo was unreal.
The other loaf I absolutely love is the ginger flavour. I was expecting a gentle hint of ginger, but from the first mouthful I was like, okay, the ginger spice has arrived. It is sweet, full of flavour, and dangerously easy to keep eating. I managed to get through half of it myself before I even remembered to take a photo. Once you taste it, you will know exactly what I mean.
Coupland’s even suggested trying it as a quick dessert board idea:
- Thick slices of Butterscotch Loaf
- Fresh berries or banana
- Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream
- A drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce
Super simple, but it looks impressive and takes almost no effort. Perfect if people pop over unexpectedly and you need something easy to serve.
I can also see this being dangerous during winter, there’s just something about a warm dessert and a cup of tea that hits differently.
So next time you’re in Coupland’s, don’t just think of the Butterscotch Loaf as an afternoon snack. It might just become your new go-to dessert hack too.
