Paul Hollywood’s Iced Lemon Whitby Buns #100bakeschallenge no 78.
I don’t know about you, but as soon as I see a recipe has yeast in it, I have this feeling of absolute dread! I’ve never got the results I want from making something involving yeast. Or I can’t handle the dough properly as my hands are always far too hot and sticky- I blame…

#100bakes: Lemon drizzle cake
There are quite a few Lemon Drizzle Cakes or variations of Lemon Cakes already on my blog. But I was wanting to contribute a couple of cakes to the Cake Stall at our village coffee morning. Lemon Drizzle cake always seems to be popular at events and a traybake is so easy to make. Just…

Amazing Cakes #29: Fondant Fancies
When you hear the name Fondant Fancies you immediately think of Mr Kipling’s yellow, chocolate and pink creations. Or if you live in Yorkshire like me, you might have even tasted the delectable version which Betty’s creates. I must admit I find Fondant Fancies too sweet and sickly, even though I’ve got a sweet tooth.…

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…

Blueberry and Lemon Yoghurt Muffins
It’s very hard when you want to bake but you can’t because you know you’ll just eat it all. The other day I had the urge to bake some muffins. I told myself that it would be ok if I ate one for breakfast. Yes, it was very nice but I don’t recommend it because…

Lemon Drizzle Bundt Cake.
I’m a huge fan of Nordicware Bundt pans much to the annoyance of Mr SmartCookieSam and my kids. I’ve lost count of how many pans I’ve got since I started collecting them seven years ago. My first one was the giant cupcake pan and since then I’ve been lucky enough to find ones in local…

Lemon Curd Victoria Sponge.
Long time, no see! It’s been over a month since I’ve last blogged. My excuse is I’ve simply been busy working. Teaching full time on different supply contacts, doing extra shifts in a day nursery during the Easter holidays definitely took it’s toll though and by the Easter weekend I felt terrible. I went down with…

Lemon Madeira Cake from The Great British Bake Off Celebrations.
Along with millions of others I got whipped up into all the excitement now that The Great British Bake Off is back! Week one started with cakes. Now for me that wouldn’t be a problem but may be with Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry watching me I might feel different. First of all the bakers were asked to…
