It seems like quite a while since I last posted. Work seems to have got in the way. I still haven't decided about a colour scheme but no doubt it will all come together in the end.
I have been off work today. Well in the sense that I didn't leave the house at 8am. K has to provide cake for a sale at school this evening to help raise money for a connecting schools project. I'm sure most of you will understand that this means I have been baking......
Requests were made, but this is also an opportunity to try out something new......


I've attempted Martha Stewart's Hummingbird cupcakes with pineapple flowers and......


My own version of Nutella cakes with candied hazlenuts.....


Chocolate cake is always popular.....


And a grown up lemon sponge... just hope it all goes well and doesn't come back home!

  5. Wow, those cakes are incredible. I baked and cooked a lot when i was recovering last year, but haven't done anything nice since starting back at work. I've been sucked right back in, just as I knew i would. I'll have to do something nice in the Easter hols.
    Hope you are still feeling good!
