Recipe: Matcha & Sesame Madeleines

As well as embarking on my Great British Bake Off Challenge, I am ever so slightly obsessed with madeleines.     I think that I like cooking things with a high effort to glory ratio; that is the least effort for the greatest impression.   Sadly, my minimal efforts on my photography here leave little impression and [...] [...]

Vegan Matcha Muffins Take 2

I needed to have a re-bake of my matcha muffins, as I was recently approached by Vitalife Matcha who asked to use my recipe in their upcoming matcha recipe e-book.    Being a responsible type, I thought that I better cook the recipe again, tweak, double check weights & measurements and check that the muffins were [...] [...]

Cor Limey! Citrus Curd Muffins

I have been saving that appalling pun for an appropriate recipe, which seems to be some muffins that I made for breakfast this morning. Today was my boyfriend’s family Christmas (his sister and her immediate family are abroad for Christmas), and there was a lunch party in Cheltenham to celebrate.  Due to the insanity of [...] [...]

The Basic Budget Cupcake and a Christmas Decorating Competition

Alongside some other food bloggers, I was recently asked by Tesco to judge a cupcake decorating competition.   I do feel slightly underqualified to judge a cake decorating competition;  when I bake I tend to make muffins or madelines, neither of which need decoration.   With the cakes above, I was going to pipe the frosting, but, [...] [...]

Sloe Gin – Patience is a Deliciously Rewarded Virtue

I think that sloe gin is winter’s answer to summer’s elderflower cordial.  A warming winter liqueur, a pretty deep pink purple in colour, with a heavenly fruity, berry plumy taste.   It is delicious beyond words, and strangely hard to describe to those unfortunate souls that have never have had the pleasure in drinking it.   Sloes [...] [...]

Gotta to be Slightly Healthier Chocolate Crispies

I am sure that chocolate crispies are one of the first things that anyone learns to cook, I certainly have a memory as a young child of making them with my mother.    She often used whole wheat flakes or a half and half mix with cornflakes.    Surely with all that cocoa, sugar, syrup and butter [...] [...]

    Really impressed with this @rodandbens Thai chicken soup. Delicious. Organic also means free range happy chickens too.
