fitwaffle’s baking it easy- a book review
I must admit I’d never heard of Fitwaffle before I picked up a copy of this book the other day. I’d gone to Northallerton to buy baking supplies and saw Fitwaffle’s Baking It Easy on the shelf in WHSmith! I am always looking out for new baking books. Those of you who know me well, […]

Carrot Cake #100bakeschallenge
Thursday 3rd February was National Carrot Cake Day! I know what you’re all thinking! Oh, she’s a bit late here, it’s now Tuesday 8th February. But last Thursday was so busy, I had no time to think about making any carrot cakes. Instead I shared a photo collage of some previous carrot cakes I’d made, […]

Amazing Cakes #24: Lemon Madeira Loaf
This post was written at the beginning of May believe it or not! It’s now the beginning of August and the first time I’ve logged onto WordPress in three months. That’s another story which I’ll explain in my next post. I just looked in my drafts and found it there. I cant understand why it […]

Chocolate and Salted Caramel Brownies: Amazing Cakes #18
Whenever I take brownies to work they always go down really well. I get fed up of baking the same things over and over again and like to try new things, though. When I was looking through Amazing Cakes From The Great British Bake Off and thinking what I’d like to make next, I found […]

Amazing Cakes #15: Banana And Chocolate Chip Loaf
On the first Monday of the second “lockdown” (don’t even get me started on that term!) I had a day at home. I wasn’t even sure what was going to happen for some of that week. Some of my work involves working in a day nursery on a regular basis and the other time I […]

Sticky Toffee Loaf Cake With Fudge Icing- from Delia’s Cakes
Gosh, is it really nearly three weeks since my last post? Well over half term I was away on holiday up on the Isle of Mull, a beautiful part of the world and since I’ve been back I haven’t managed to get anywhere near my laptop. So better late than never I suppose! Last month I […]

Cheddar, Apple and Walnut Loaf- The Great British Bake Off Everyday
A lot of my bakes have been sweet ones recently but I was keen to try out a recipe that was listed in the Cakes section of the latest Great British Bake Off Book- The Great British Bake Off Everyday. It doesn’t contain sugar but it is a savoury loaf where the sweetness comes from […]

Orange and Olive Oil Loaf- The Great British Bake Off Everyday
A couple of weeks ago I was told by my hubby to stop baking things so much as we were all trying to lose weight. I agreed with him as I find it is all too tempting to “taste test” what I’ve baked. I just love baking so much though. Usually the cakes and cookies […]

Lime Cream Cheese Cake- The Great British Bake Off Everyday.
Another delicious cake from the latest Great British Bake Off book and a scrumptious version of a lime drizzle loaf cake. This one actually has cream cheese added to it and keeps the texture moist. I had never used cream cheese within a cake mixture before, only as frosting. A couple of weekends ago I […]
