Waitrose

All you have to do is solve our prize crossword on page 19 of this week's issue of Waitrose Weekend and the shaded squares will spell out the prize word, which is an ingredient from Heston's banana Eton mess.

Answer: Bananas (please thank BearsBlueGirl post #17 for making a special trip to get the magazine and completing the crossword)

    Only one of them can be the correct answer, and until someone gets the latest magazine and solves the puzzle, we won't know what the answer is.
    I'll get a magazine on Saturday, maybe someone else will have one before then

    Thanks skoff but is that the answer or just a guess? Immortal Beloved's post #4 states that Hazelnuts, Limes and Bananas are all ingredients!

    If it is banana eton mess then it has surely got to be bananas
    (but yes it is 'just a guess')
