This month’s Fresh From the Oven Challenge was hosted by Chele, from Chocolate Teapot, who choose brioche for the challenge. I was hugely excited about this as I love brioche and had never made it before, but had always enjoyed it on French holidays. Muttering “Let them eat cake” to myself I set about making [...]

I was delighted to be recently asked by Wildcard to an evening with Jo Pratt, who would be demonstrating the new range of Tilda stir fry rices.
