Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
5.2 s64 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 5.2 s.
Improve image delivery
2.0 s · 622 KiB17 images could be 622 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.0 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 48
48/100Your mobile performance score is 48. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 7.0 s
A phone's processor spends 7.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.1 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
4,855 HTML elements
The page has 4,855 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Reduce unused JavaScript
900 ms · 205 KiBAbout 205 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 900 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
450 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 450 ms).
Google Tag Manager adds 351 ms
351 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 351 ms of main-thread work and 389 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 75 KiBAbout 75 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Clarity and fraudblocker.com and others), adding 618 KiB and 483 ms of main-thread time.
18 long tasks on the main thread
18 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 175 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
32 KiB2 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (32 KiB).
Minify CSS
12 KiB12 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Legacy JavaScript
8 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 8 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Real-user LCP: 4.5 s
4.5 sReal visitors wait 4.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 3.9 s
3.9 sReal visitors see the first content after 3.9 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 2.1 s
2.1 sReal visitors wait 2.1 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Largest Contentful Paint: 13.0 s
13.0 sYour largest element takes 13.0 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “new flavours New Flavours Have Just Arrived Discover freshl…”. Most of its time is resource load delay (12.8 s).
Speed Index: 24.5 s
24.5 sVisually, the page fills in at 24.5 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 18.2 s
18.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 18.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 5.4 s
5.4 sThe first text or image appears after 5.4 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user CLS: 0.13
0.13For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.13 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Tap response (INP) got 20% slower for real visitors
+20%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 113 ms to 139 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Total Blocking Time: 238 ms
238 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 238 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.102
0.102The layout shifts by 0.102 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
6 images without width and height
6 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Largest content (LCP) got 24% faster for real visitors
-24%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 4.7 s to 3.7 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.4 MB in 251 requests
4.4 MBYour homepage downloads 4.4 MB in 251 requests on a phone: images 3.1 MB (91), scripts 721 KiB (69) and stylesheets 296 KiB (68). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
33 images in older formats
33 images (2.2 MB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
6 images below the first screen load straight away
6 images further down the page (428 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
2 images far larger than shown
80 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Designer-cake-1.png at 788 px wide, shown at 221 px. Resized copies would save about 80 KiB.
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.23 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.23 g of CO₂e: 148.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
3 buttons without a name
3 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
48 text elements with low contrast
48 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
17 tap targets too small
17 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
Malformed lists
Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.
Positive tabindex
2 elements have a tabindex above 0, which scrambles the keyboard order.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (7 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
38 links without text
38 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (24 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 24 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
4 form fields without a label
4 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h3 → h6, h2 → h6 and h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 173 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 60 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 11 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
5 H1 headlines

Security and trust
No Content-Security-Policy

No X-Content-Type-Options

No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
