This is one of the most time consuming cakes I can remember doing during the past couple of years. I know I made life hard for myself by making each book individually on the side of the cake and piping so many authors and novels but even ...
New York Cake #BakeoftheWeek
Its been a while since we had a decorated cake as our #BakeoftheWeek but I just loved this one and wanted to share. I don't say yes to many cakes any more, I'm just not around most weekends to be able to deliver them but sometimes I can't ...
Reduced Sugar Blueberry Muffins
There's a possibility I am becoming slightly addicted to blueberries - a punnet doesn't last a day in this house. I'm sure they are juicier & tastier than ever this year. We are still fighting the never ending battle to reduce our sugar ...

You can't beat the comfort of an old baking favourite. I was just in the mood for a slice of cake to enjoy with my brew and my latest book, so Coffee & Walnut Loaf Cake it was. Simple decorations work best with this - Some powdered ...
