Bundtnuts: Bundt Book Challenge #5.
I chose to make some Bundtnuts on Sunday from the recipe in Bundt by Melanie Johnson. I’d never heard of Bundtnuts before, let alone made any. They are just a hybrid of a doughnut baked in a mini bundt pan with different variations of flavourings and toppings. It was a good excuse to bring out…

Carrot Bundt Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting Bundt Challenge #4.
I absolutely adore carrot cake and have been wanting to bake one for a ages. It’s been a while since I’ve been asked to make one so I thought why don’t I bake one because I want to? Baking one in a Bundt pan is even better and such a treat. On Sunday afternoon I…

Sunday October 10th 2021 I wanted to bake a cake for Sunday afternoon. I had been away for some of the weekend and we weren’t having a full blown Sunday roast but Mr S was going to cook his special steak with new potatoes and salad. I’ve been suffering a bit with my mental health…

A Bake For All Seasons #1: Blackberry and Apple Crumble Cake.
3rd October 2021 As I’ve mentioned before, I’m not that much of an Autumn/ Winter persion. Mainly because I don’t like it being dark early and getting up in the dark. Not to mention the lack of sun. But having said that, there are positives to this time of year- it’s Bake Off Season! The…
