Fricken
If you’re not in the mood for fried chicken, Fricken has two absolutely naughty desserts to get your hands on. Firstly, try the ‘frownie’, a deep-fried battered brownie cookie with the choice of a drizzle of Hersheys chocolate or caramel sauce, or Lotus Biscoff spread. If that won’t cure your cravings, have a crack at the Oreo or Biscoff Belgium waffles with vanilla ice cream.
