Have you herd about the high quality dairy products Jersey cows are famous for worldwide? #milk #butter #icecream #cream #cheese #yoghurt #VisitJersey #JerseyCI #moo A photo posted by Visit Jersey (@visitjerseyci) on Nov 24, 2014 at 8:28am PST

Jersey Cows and their creamy milk?

Escape to Jersey

Which amongst other things, gets turned into THIS. Grab a spoon…

There’s no mistaking the taste of Jersey Royal New Potatoes. Their unique flavour comes from Jersey’s rich fertile earth, gentle climate and the way our #farmers grow them! #JerseyCI #Potatoes #EatJersey15 #visitjerseyci #escapetojersey A photo posted by Visit Jersey (@visitjerseyci) on Oct 21, 2015 at 9:18am PDT

Flavourful Jersey potatoes in the spring?

Jersey today bears many scars from Germany’s five-year military occupation of the Channel Islands during World War II. #History #Heritage #WWII #JerseyCI #VisitJersey A photo posted by Visit Jersey (@visitjerseyci) on Oct 27, 2014 at 3:16am PDT

Jersey has its own history separate to Britain. Did you know that it was occupied by Germany in World War II?

… and some serious relaxing afterwards!

Escape to Jersey-2

Now whilst I plan my dream Escape to Jersey the Visit Jersey folks sent me a few local treats to try.

Above left you see a dark treacley apple butter known as Jersey Black Butter – perfect with cheese and crackers. On the right we have Liberation Ale Chutney made by The Chilli Kitchen with genuine Jersey vegetables and perfect accompaniment to a ploughman’s lunch.

Escape to Jersey-3

For dessert we have this cheeky snack of La Cremiere’s Jersey Salt Caramel Sauce inside some ready made pastry cups and topped with Brownie Bites by Zoe’s Bakery. Now excuse me whilst I just hide in a corner with this bottle and a long spoon…

If you’d like to plan your own Escape to Jersey then visit their website and you could be in with a chance to win your own break.

    Gosh that black butter sounds unbelievable – as does the salted caramel! I’ve never been to Jersey but have always thought it must be a really lovely, and really interesting, place to visit.

      Yes I think for a little place it has a lot to offer. It’s definitely on my list!

    I have been to Guernsey many times, by yacht for fun and by plane for work. Would love to go to Jersey too and eat all the salt caramel sauce!

    I have indeed – one of hubby’s best friends lives there and we have visited almost every year since about 2003 🙂 It’s a very underrated destination – glorious beaches, an interesting history and amazing food. I did a huge post about it on my blog last year 🙂 That caramel looks uh-MA-zing!

    I want to visit for that caramel alone, never mind the gorgeous scenery!
