This Halloween I thought I’d challenge myself and bake something creepy but new, so when I came across How To Cake It’s brain cake recipe I had to give it a go. Here’s the metric adapted recipe I used to make my cake. Using a red velvet cake as its base it is then coated in an Italian meringue buttercream, decorated with fondant and then to finish coated in raspberry jam. This is one delicious brain.

This Easter I thought I’d try something different, it ended up being that good I baked it twice. If you got a load of Easter eggs feel free to add them as you wish to this recipe, theres so many ways you could make this your own.
Every Easter since I was a kid my mum has baked these cakes so its only seems right that I bake them now as well. Whether you’re looking for a quick & simple recipe to do with your children over the Easter holidays or you need something for visiting friends and family to tuck in to, these are always a good shout and look the part. You can never have too much chocolate at Easter right?!?
Sorry for being a little quiet lately, its been so busy at work but I’m back with one of my new favourite recipes. I’ve always been a big fan of the zesty flavours lemon meringue so when I saw this recipe from John Whaite I had to try it out. Its a great example of how you can easily adapt and reimagine a classic recipe. This take on the classic consists of two lemon drizzle cakes sandwiched with lemon curd and Italian meringue.
Brownies are really quick and simple to make but the result is always so tasty and gooey. Here’s a classic chocolate brownie recipe with a little twist.
What better recipe to start of my baking blog with than one of my favourite go to Sunday afternoon bakes from former Great British Bake Off winner John Whaite. Perfect anytime of the year this classic taste combination never tasted so good.
