Universal’s Shepherd’s Pie from @mommynamedapril
We start with food blogger Mama Loves Food, who has brought a British favourite to life: a lovely shepherd’s pie. The recipe comes from Universal Studios, which is served at The Three Broomsticks pub for fans visiting The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Hogsmeade. In the Harry Potter books, Harry and his fellow students loved a bit of shepherd’s pie every now and then while dining in the Great Hall.

Floating Hogwarts letters from @myharrypottercorner
Getting the big, important Hogwarts letter is a huge moment for a budding witch or wizard, which Instagrammer @MyHarryPotterCorner, aka Hector, has paid homage to in this magical photoshoot. Here, Hector has perfected the moment where Harry is engulfed in his own flying Hogwarts letters. We love that Hector has stayed true to his Slytherin roots with a little homage to his house in the corner.
