If you are what you eat, then you shouldn’t settle for anything but the real deal.

Prosperity Brownies coming right up. Home-baked by a husband-and-wife team in West Sussex, the sweets are made with kitchen-cupboard ingredients.

Unlike boxed imitators, they are properly crispy on the outside and squidgy on the inside. Flavors include plain or milk chocolate with options like white choc chunks and (real) berries or dark chocolate with raspberries.

Sugar high hasn’t kicked in yet? Consider this: 10 per cent of profits go to Viva and Global Compassion, charities that help underprivileged kids.

It’s okay to be a brownnoser.
