Coco Bazaar With Chocolate, Pistachio, Cardamom & Honey & Chocolate Turkish Delight Liqueur

A mysterious and unusual chocolate fruit cake with an eastern twist, laced with pistachios and honey, spiced with cardamom and infused with an exotic Chocolate Rose liqueur.

Handcrafted with love and care, each delicious fruit cake comes wrapped in biodegradable cellophane, hand tied with bakers twine and packaged in its own gorgeous tin, and we can send a personalised, hand-written gift card too. The pretty tin can be used over and over again for all sorts of things, especially for a Tipple Tails refill!

Cardamom

Green cardamom pods have a unique warm, spicy and sweet flavour with undertones of lemon and eucalyptus. Cardamom is also used in the Middle East to flavour tiny cups of strong dark coffee and in India to flavour strong, sweet milky tea. Try it too in mulled wine or spiced ale!

Turkish Delight

Turkish Delight is a sweet delicacy eaten in small cubes dusted with icing sugar. The most well known varieties are Rosewater, Pistachio and Lemon. It became a major delicacy in Britain and throughout Continental Europe for high class society, with the practice among upper class socialites to exchange pieces of Turkish Delight wrapped in silk handkerchiefs as presents.

    I’m also not usually a fruit-cake fan; but I gobbled down the slice of Coco Bazaar that turned up in my ‘Pink Parcel’ and was really impressed by the taste and the texture, it was lovely. I subsequently ordered some full-sized cakes as Christmas presents, the tins they come in look great and are practical for posting; and handy gift tags were also included. I look forward to trying more varieties, particularly the Cherry Orchard one. These cakes are bad news for my new year dieting plans!

      Hi Kathryn, so nice to hear how much you enjoyed your Coco Bazaar fruit cake slice. The fruit cakes in pretty tins do make a lovely gift don’t they!

      The Coco Bazaar is delicious paired with a glass of fizz or even better – an Elderflower Bellini! And the Cherry Orchard fruit cake paired with a blue cheese is a perfect match.

      As for the diet, sometimes a little bit of what you fancy does you good! Jane x

  3. JustJunelle

    I received this cake in my October PinkParcel! I did enjoy this cake, I love Christmas cake which is what it did remind me of. It was really juicy and full of fruit which was great! My only let down was that I did expect a little more chocolate flavour.

    I have put a full review on my blog – https://justjunelle95.wordpress.com/2016/10/15/tipple-tails-coco-bazaar-review/ if you want to take a look.

    I’d still recommend the cake because I did enjoy it, hope you do too!

      hi JustJunelle, thank you so much for reviewing the Coco Bazaar fruit cake slice that you had in your October Pink Parcel Glad to hear that you enjoyed it; only sad to hear that it wasn’t chocolatey enough for you. It has quite a complex flavour profile so you tend to taste all the lovely different flavours in layers – I promise you it has lots of lovely organic chocolate in it 🙂 – perhaps give it another try? love, Jane x

    I got this cake in my pink parcel this month and oh its amazing. So juicy and succulent, and the cocoa flavour comes through so well with an amazing boozy after kick. Will definitely buy one of these in the future <3

  5. Suzanne

    Oh my. This cake is to die for. Every bite was scrumptious. Really moist. I received a slice in this months Pink Parcel and I will definitely be buying some more.

    • Jane (verified owner)

      Thank you Suzanne! Lovely to hear how much you enjoyed your Coco Bazaar! Best wishes, Jane x

  6. Rebecca Rowland

    I have just tried this amazing cake! I received a slice in my pink parcel….Wow what gorgeous flavours and so moist, you must try this!
    Can’t wait to try another flavour!

    • Jane (verified owner)

      So lovely to hear how much you enjoyed your Coco Bazaar fruit cake slice Rebecca! Thank you x

  7. Charlotte

    Wow! Honestly just wow! I usually don’t like fruit cake but this is just insane! Completely different it’s amazing! Received my first taster of coco bazaar in my pink parcel and I will certainly be ordering more! I don’t think there was a breath taken in between any bites! Beautiful!

    • Jane (verified owner)

      Hi Charlotte, thank you so so much. So glad you liked your Coco Bazaar Pink Parcel treat! I love it too and it’s lovely with a glass of Prosecco! Love, Jane x

  8. Emma

    What a super cake, and especially good on New Year’s Day – thank you Jane! Wonderful huge cherries, layers of rich, distinctive tastes – and the rose/chocolate/cardamon combination is a velvety taste-texture sensation!

    The pistachio nuts gleamed as we sliced into the cake!

    We ate it with a glass of Prosecco – as suggested on the lovely cards that you enclosed in the cake tin – and thoroughly recommend this combination!

    Thank you, and wishing you continued and deserved success for 2016 – very best, Emma and family

    • Jane (verified owner)

      Emma, you are so kind! Thank you for your comments. I am so glad that you mentioned the layers of tastes – it’s a fabulous review from someone who is obviously a ‘Cake-Connoisseur’!

      Coco Bazaar is lovely with a Prosecco – we’ve tried it with Elderflower Pressé too – the lovely floral ‘Muscat’ flavour is a perfect companion to the rich fruit cake, and we also tried a Gewürztraminer from New Zealand, which has Rose Petal undertones and is delicious with Middle Eastern food.

      Both worth a try if you have any fruit cake left 😉 lots of love, Jane x

  9. Phil Parkin

    I absolutely love the new addition to the Tipple Tails range. I didn’t know what to expect at first but I was impressed with how much flavour is packed into each bite!

    • Jane (verified owner)

      Hi Phil, it’s a little bit unexpected isn’t it! Lots of layers of flavour, with a lovely rose finish. I have to admit it has fast become my favourite. I am very excited to have introduced something completely different such a unique cake experience!
