Merry Christmas to all my lovely readers! Before everyone dives deep into the festivities, I wanted to get in one last post to wish you all well for the holidays. I know this time of year can be incredibly busy for some, emotional for others or just simply magical. Whatever it means to you, I…

Birthday Cake!
Hello lovely readers 🙂 How are you all? Are you enjoying this beautiful Autumnal day? Don’t you just love it when the sun is shining in Autumn? Something about seeing those beautiful red, orange and green colours against a blue sky makes me so happy. I don’t get to walk often, but when I do…
Birthday Cake :)
I haven’t disappeared! Hello lovely readers. I realise I start a lot of my posts with an apology for not posting regularly and I can only apologise again. I have had a busy few months with lots of ups and downs. The last time I posted was just before my dear grandmother passed away. I…
Chocolate Orange Profiteroles
It’s that time of year again. A time for reflection and a time to sit back and enjoy ourselves with our loved ones. But it’s also an incredibly busy and somewhat stressful time too, let’s be honest! I truly do love Christmas. I love the decorations, the movies, and of course the food. I also…
My Daughter’s 3rd Birthday Cake
My daughter turned 3 a couple of weeks ago (where on earth did those 3 years go?) and I was determined to make her a cake, despite the fact I was drowning in work and social activities. For those of you who saw my cake last year, you will know that I love baking but…
Diwali Biscuits
Happy Diwali to all that are celebrating this year 🙂 Making biscuits for Diwali is one of our family traditions. Whilst it may not be something you associate with Diwali, it’s something we always made alongside all the spicy snacks and sweet treats. My Mum and I would make biscuits every year and hand them…
Pumpkin Spice Cinnamon Rolls
Happy Halloween everyone! Now although this is not exactly a spooky Halloween post, it’s inspired by the flavours that everyone is enjoying at the moment. Isn’t Autumn just beautiful? Look at these gorgeous leaves we found around our house. I just love the colours. What is Pumpkin Spice? I started to see pumpkin spice everywhere…
Birthday Cake!
Did somebody say cake? It was my daughters 2nd birthday yesterday. Two years have flown past. I know everybody says they grow up quick but gosh I didn’t realise it was this quick. My little one is now the boss of the house. From the moment we wake up it’s all go, hopping from one…
Blackberry and Chocolate Soufflé
I realise I am a bit late to the blackberry party but I made this last week and was feeling rather chuffed with myself. You hear the word soufflé and most people (unless you are a whizz kid in the kitchen) shudder at the thought. This is what happened to me not so long ago….
Banana and Chocolate Chip Muffins
I love to bake but sometimes I think my waistline could do without it. There’s nothing wrong with a little cake, but if I can make it a little lighter I will. I’m not a huge fan of over complicated recipes that ask for strange ingredients to make it healthier. Also I’m a little bored…
