Premium independent coffee house, Caffè Nero, has launched its brand-new Christmas range today, just in time for the holiday season. The 2022 festive line-up will see eight delectable new additions hit menus nationwide, including Vegan Festive Feast, Cinnamon Swirl Latte and Chocolate Hazelnut Chouxnut, alongside returning favourites including Brie, Bacon & Cranberry Panini and Classic Mince Pie. The brand will also be running a special app promotion in the lead-up to Christmas, with prizes such as tickets to a Chelsea matchday experience and GLOSSYBOX goodies to be won.
Three delicious new festive drinks will be available for customers to try this week: Luxury Black Forest Mocha, Salted Caramel Brownie Hot Chocolate and Cinnamon Swirl Latte, which have all been inspired by popular baked treat flavours. The Cinnamon Swirl Latte is set to be the star of the show for coffee aficionados, as the recipe perfectly complements the oat’s natural sweetness and is the brand’s first drink specially designed to enjoy with oat milk – where have you bean all our lives?
For those looking for a savoury lunchtime treat, there’s a new moreish Turkey Feast Focaccia, consisting of soft rosemary and rock salt focaccia packed with turkey, smoked bacon and cranberry sauce; plus, a new and improved Vegan Festive Feast recipe, featuring a fennel and sage stuffing and finished with a vegan gravy mayo. The brand is also bringing back savoury customer favourites this year including Pigs Under Blanket Tostati and comforting Brie, Bacon & Cranberry Panini.
Customers seeking a sweet mid-morning or luxurious afternoon pick-me-up can enjoy two delectable new items. There’s a Luxury Black Forest Cake, consisting of multiple layers of moist chocolate sponge, morello cherry compote and Belgian white chocolate frosting, plus an irresistible new chouxnut flavour for 2022 – the Chocolate Hazelnut Chouxnut – which tastes remarkably similar to one of the UK’s favourite chocolate and hazelnut festive treats. We’re nuts about it!
Caffè Nero will also be bringing back their much-loved Classic Mince Pie, alongside an exciting new addition, the Luxury Amaretto Mince Pie, which has just been named ‘best coffee shop mince pie’ by the coveted Good Housekeeping Institute. Customers can enjoy the ‘taste approved’ luxury mince pie for just £2.55; its indulgent amaretto-soaked filling, caramelised almond Florentine topping, encased in an all-butter pastry.
