I love a bit of baking and I also love a blogger challenge! I was recently contacted by Waitrose to take part in their Waitrose Great British Garden Party campaign, which is where they come up with loads of great foodie ideas for summer. I can’t believe we’re halfway through August already.. summer has come …
I’ve not done a cake post in a while as baking has kind of taken a back seat lately. I’ve been such a busy bee! I haven’t taken many cake orders the past few months, as I was on holiday for Mothers Day, and away over Easter, and I’ll also be away for Fathers Day! …
The weather is a little bit grim today, but yesterday it was nice and sunny! I spent the day with my family; walking to the new tea shop in our village for a slice of cake, then helping Mum decorate her Easter Figolli biscuits (I’ve uploaded a few photos below), and then went for a …
I had a sudden urge of boredom a few days ago, so I decided to do a bit of Easter preperation and make a few little treats. They’re just simple little things, they don’t even require baking! And I managed to resist scoffing all the chocolate mini eggs (although I did lick the chocolatey spoon). …

As I’m sure most of you are aware, I love baking! I’m still not very brave and adventurous and tend to stick to simple vanilla cupcakes, but I love trying out new techniques and using new things to decorate them with. I’m sure those of you that watched BBC’s The Apprentice last year will remember …
One of the reasons I’ve been so busy and stressed lately is down to my cake business. Christmas was obviously a busy time for me and I had lots of orders to do. The mojority of these were for Christmas Eve, so I spent hours after work and a whole weekend preparing for the orders. …
So for those of us (me, and probably most people) that absolutely love retro style food mixers like the Kitchenaid, but can’t justify spending crazy amounts of money (£379+!) I’ve found the perfect budget version. The Klarstein Bella Rossa Stand Mixer is an attractive retro style food mixer that does everything a baker needs it …
