Chocolate Salted Caramel Brownies - Apple & Spice
06 February 2012 in Cake Making Recipes
Did everyone enjoy seeing the snow over the weekend? I used to love snow and feel so excited whenever I woke up and found a thick layer of white covering the ground. Snow is now viewed as a bit of a nuisance, yet it still holds a sense of magic for me. It makes everything appear so fresh, bright, ...
Meatballs and What You Can Do With Them - The English Kitchen
06 February 2012 in Cake Making Recipes
I have to confess that I can be rather lazy when it comes to cooking from time to time. I don't always want to spend hours and hours slaving over a hot stove. I do enjoy cooking, but if I can find an easier and quicker way of doing something without compromising flavour . . . I'll take it! I also ...
Animal Print Cake – Cake of the Week - Casa Costello
05 February 2012 in Cake Decorating Services
Not sure what exactly to call this cake – I’m thinking its animal print icing but is it a zebra or a tiger? I had completely free reign on this cake – I suggested red and black as Vicky’s sister tells me that she isn’t very girly so pink wouldn’t do. We decided ...

Rhubarb crumb cake - The Caked Crusader
05 February 2012 in Cake Making Recipes
One of the few cheering sights during this sudden cold snap of weather has been the appearance of the wonderfully pink forced rhubarb. Seriously, is there a better colour anywhere in the world of fruit and veg than this: My local market sells better quality rhubarb than any supermarket – I do ...

Chocolate Chip, Marzipan and Cranberry Muffins - Mainly Baking
03 February 2012 in Cake Making Recipes
As you probably know, muffins aren't my favourite type of baked treat. There are times, though, when they are really useful - good portion control, quick to mix and quick to bake too. They are even good if you need to eat them while still warm - most cakes are not happy if you try to cut them while ...
