Pear and Ginger Cobbler
Last Sunday I woke up feeling absolutely shattered but keen to get back into my kitchen. I had been away on holiday for a week and although we had all had a fabulous time, eaten loads of lovely food and lazed around by the pool I was pleased to be back around my home comforts. […]

Honey and Granola Cupcakes
After the big urge to bake muffins yesterday, I found myself wanting to bake more and more! The dozen blueberry muffins which would have been suitable for this morning’s breakfast had all disappeared. My cake fairies have been at it again! No, no it wasn’t me! I did eat one, but I can’t be blamed […]

Blueberry and Polenta Muffins
This morning I woke up with a huge urge to bake muffins. Muffins are not something I have baked a lot of recently due to the fact that I end up making more cupcakes and cookies than anything else really. I have always loved making them though and used to make them regularly with my […]

Attempting Paul Hollywood’s Foccacia from The Great British Bake Off
Who else is looking forward to series three of The Great British Bake Off starting back on TV next week? I know I definitely am. The nation has well and truly taken the series and the baking buzz to our hearts. As soon as the accompanying books came out in the shops I was straight […]

The Primrose Bakery’s Strawberry Cupcakes
Last Sunday I spent all day running a stall at a local craft fair in Masham, which is about a 40 minute drive from where I live. I love visiting Masham, it’s such a pretty market town. When my children were younger we would often drive up into the Dales and stop in Masham on […]

The Primrose Bakery’s Mars Bar Cake
Yesterday morning I was in experimental mode. As it is the school holidays so I have six weeks off from my day job as a teaching assistant/ supply cover in a local primary school, it means I have more time to “play” with recipes and try out new things. Most of my Yorkshire Bakery commissions […]

Lemon Drizzle Loaf Cake
I just love Lemon Drizzle Cake and make it often for family, when friends come over and for customers. Mine is usually a circular one though, or sometimes I make it like a traybake served into slices. Whichever way you serve it, I just love it. Nothing else tastes like it, the sweetness of the […]

Peanut Butter Cupcakes
When I was looking through my two Primrose Bakery cookbooks and planning what to bake next, I was spoilt for choice! Lots of delicious mouthwatering cupcakes with different tastes and colours, also different flavours some more unusual than others. Then, one evening about 2 weeks ago my choice was made for me. A customer asked […]

Mint Chocolate Brownies
Who else out there likes brownies? I don’t know many people that don’t. I would love to know what it is that brownies have that send people into raptures, is it the chocolate? The fact that there’s rather a lot of sugar in them? Or that the chocolately gooey gorgeousness just melts in the mouth. […]
