Lime and Coconut Drizzle Bundt Cake: Amazing Cakes #16
Those of you who know me might remember that I have an addiction to collecting Nordicware Bundt pans. I haven’t got as many pans as some people but I have enough to drive Mr S to wish he could flog them all on Ebay! To me, they are pretty and stylish and make an ordinary…

Great British Bake Off Technical Bake: Coconut Macaroons
I was really keen to bake the Coconut Macaroons from the Great British Bake Off’s Biscuit Week Technical Bake as I love coconut. I’d never baked coconut macaroons though so this was a first for me. I don’t really think of macaroons as biscuits though, I think of them as small cakes! The Technical challenge…

The Great British Bake Off Christmas- Coconut Traybake.
I’ve been testing a few recipes out of a favourite book of mine this month: The Great British Bake Off Christmas. There’s been loads of different things to choose from and we’re not just limited to cakes and biscuits here. I was tempted to have a go at Cathryn Dresser’s own recipe featured in…

Cranberry, White Chocolate and Coconut Magic Bars.
I’d had a manic few days at work so to come into the kitchen and bake was a great tonic for me. I feel guilty every time I bake at the moment though. I shouldn’t be doing it as eating the sugary stuff is not good for my health. But at the same time I…

Coconut and Cherry Sponge Cake- Mercers of Yorkshire Cherry Jam.
A couple of years back as family circumstances changed we stopped having our traditional Sunday lunch at lunchtime. My daughter was out at work and would miss having a Sunday lunch and the chance for us all to sit down over a roast dinner. So our Sunday meal got moved to the early evening…

Bundts, Bundts and More Bundts.
I’m getting just that teensy weensy bit obsessed with collecting Nordicware Bundt pans now. I think it needs to stop or else I will need a kitchen extension! I just love the interesting shapes that the pans come in and how you can make a cake into a showstopper bake by using one of the pans.…

Scandelicious Baking- Flappenjacken.
The other day when we were sat round the table eating breakfast on holiday the conversation turned to my obsession with baking. Well we were eating croissants at the time and I said I would love to have a go at baking my own croissants one day. My family sometimes appreciate my efforts, sometimes don’t.…

John Whaite Bakes At Home- Update on my June Cooking The Books Challenge.
Unfortunately things have gone a bit pear shaped in my monthly Cooking The Books Challenge. It got to the end of the month yesterday and I realised I’d not baked two of the recipes I wanted to for the challenge. I missed out on baking some Utterly Nutterly Shortbreads and some Wedding Party Rings! Oh…

The Ultimate Carrot Cake- Delia’s Cakes.
Carrot Cake is one of those cakes you see everywhere and there are many versions of it. Over the years since I started baking I’ve made a fair few, some fantastic and some you’d want to chuck in the bin. This version though, is horrifically calorific seeing as the icing contains mascarpone! Heavenly, but gorgeous!…
