The ultimate Sunday debate: How big is TOO big?

Chef Roby went all out over the weekend, delivering these absolute sky-scraper Yorkshire puddings!

Soft in the middle, golden-crisp on the outside, and structurally sound enough to hold half a pint of gravy. That is proper kitchen craftsmanship right there. 🔥

We need a definitive ruling:
1️⃣ One giant monster Yorkie taking up half the plate?
2️⃣ Or three standard-sized ones crammed on the side?

🎪 What a weekend! Team Summerley were manning the bars at the fabulous Camp Bestival, one of our favourite events of the year!

As you can see from the photos there was an amazing circus vibe, but we have no idea how Holly ended up in a giant Ghost Caribou! 🦌👀 (swipe to see! ➡️)
