Quick answer Child Benefit in 2026 to 2027 is £27.05 a week for your eldest child...

March is a month of unpredictable weather, a diary full of commitments, and a deep craving for indulgence. Enter Cutter & Squidge, the London-based bakery that knows exactly how to bring joy through exquisite treats. Whether you need a pick-me-up, a gift for a loved one, or just an excuse to enjoy something delicious, I’ve handpicked three show-stopping treats that you absolutely need in your life.
Imagine a buttery, melt-in-your-mouth shortbread base. Now layer it with golden, luscious caramel. Then, crown it with a rich, fudgy brownie so decadent it should come with a warning label. This is the Millionaire Shortbread Cookie Brownie, a triple-layered masterpiece that will make you question why you ever settled for anything less. Perfect for a moment of pure indulgence, or to share – if you’re feeling generous.

Who says afternoon tea should only be for special occasions? This Luxe Afternoon Tea Set is a decadent selection of fluffy scones with clotted cream and jam, handcrafted pastries, and an assortment of delicate cakes that look almost too good to eat. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, an anniversary, or just rewarding yourself for making it through another chaotic week, this is a gift-worthy indulgence delivered straight to your door.
Step aside, basic supermarket Easter eggs. This is what Easter dreams are made of – a handcrafted chocolate shell filled with a soft, gooey marshmallow and an irresistible cookie. Whether you’re gifting this beauty or claiming it as a personal treat, it’s an Easter experience unlike any other. Warning: once you crack it open, there’s no going back.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned as a home-educating mum of two, it’s that sometimes you just need to treat yourself. Whether it’s a quiet moment with a millionaire brownie, an afternoon of elegance with a luxe tea, or a cheeky Easter indulgence, Cutter & Squidge have got your back. So go on – order something decadent, hide from the kids, and savour every single bite. You deserve it.
