The sun is shining and my thoughts turn to Afternoon Tea in the garden and of course scrumptious cake ! Recently Olly and I popped into The Cake Shed in Tunbridge Wells and are now totally addicted, the sandwiches and range of tea choices are amazing, but what is really…
Chocolate Layer Cake
I wasn’t going to add this recipe, it is a great chocolate cake, but I do have so many cakes already on here. I did think it would be fine to just keep it in the magazine and fish it out when I needed it, but I have baked it…
Bitter Chocolate Meringue Tart
This ‘Mad Meringue Week’ has been a little harder than I had anticipated, there is only so many egg whites that a girl can whisk and only so much meringue you can eat, even if you do have a ridiculously sweet tooth like mine, but I do have to say that…

Meet the Fockers – Chocolate Raspberry Pavlova
My poor little girl is rather over protected by her Brothers and Myself and this week she had the unenviable task of bringing home her new boyfriend for dinner. Even though we know she has grown up into a beautiful young woman, in our eyes she will always be…

Peppermint Creams
