Another chocolately offering for you all. Who doesn’t like salted caramel? Who doesn’t like rich, squidgy chocolate brownies? Well, if you don’t I personally think you’re a bit strange!! These are fantastic – you definitely get a proper chocolate hit with these. Just be careful not to eat the whole lot at once! Continue reading
The busiest time for birthdays for my family is from September running all the way through to February (with a few more birthdays scattered throughout the rest of the year). This has its pros and cons. It means that I need to be really inspired, present-wise, to make sure I have something to give everyone for both Christmas and birthday, but on the plus side it means I generally get to eat and sometimes make lots of cake.

I then had to decide how to decorate it. Continue reading
If you want a really moist, light and tasty chocolately sponge (and you love Oreos), this is cake to pick. It was very much a hit and lasted really well, despite our best efforts to demolish it quickly! My husband loved it. Continue reading
What a better way to use up a couple of apples – turning them into a delicious and easy pud that you can douse in custard, cream or ice cream! You don’t have to make your own pastry as it does turn this quick and easy pudding into something a bit more time-consuming, but if you have the time and inclination, it does give you a sense of achievement (and tastes good too). Continue reading

It’s Diwali, or the Festival of Lights, this Sunday and I thought I’d attempt to make an Indian sweet treat in celebration.

These naughty treats are not linked to any particular country – I just thought they were delicious when I tried them in a lovely London café (Bea’s of Bloomsbury) and was very excited when I found they’d shared the recipe on their website Continue reading
