Now that the sun is making more regular appearances, I thought it was time to start some spring baking. One of my favourite spring flavours, now that all of the Easter chocolate bakes are out of the way, is lemon….
Mini Egg Blondies
Easter is really early this year, it’s going to come around so quickly! It’s now less than three weeks until Good Friday, and now that I’m back at work, there’s limited time to bake and enjoy all of the delicious,…
Gluten Free Chocolate Tart
If you’ve been following a gluten free diet for a while, you’ll be familiar with being served a fruit salad as a dessert. Well, there is absolutely no need for this, especially when desserts can be this straight forward to…
Chocolate Caramel Shortbread
I used to love making chocolate caramel shortbread when I was younger, although back then I called it a twix bar! A delicious combination of buttery shortbread, gooey, sweet caramel with a thin layer of chocolate on top. So I’m…
Tiramisu Cake
I am really enjoying baking at the moment, it keeps me busy when there isn’t much else to do during lockdown. This week I really fancied experimenting with coffee and chocolate flavours. I was originally going to make a mocha…
Orange Breakfast Muffins
If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ll know I’m all about a weekend breakfast or brunch, featuring eggs, pancakes, waffles – you name it! I’ve always found it more difficult to come up with weekday breakfasts which I…

Just before Christmas I made a huge batch of Gingerbread Men using my foolproof recipe linked here. The recipe makes so many biscuits so I thought I’d use them to top a new, Christmassy cupcake. The recipe below makes 12…
Salted Caramel Chocolate Brownies
I never used to like brownies, but as I’ve got older (and started teaching!), it’s become another way of enjoying chocolate in my diet. Especially warmed up with ice cream. Is here a better dessert? I’m not sure there is!…
Halloween Iced Biscuits
It’s the night before Halloween, so I thought I’d share these fun to decorate, melt in the mouth, Halloween biscuits. I don’t usually celebrate Halloween, although this year I’m having a couple of friends over for cocktails (any excuse during…
Gluten Free Marble Cake
Last week, I really fancied making a cake as I don’t often buy gluten free snacks as they’re expensive, and I’d run out of sweet treats! I decided to make a marble cake! I’ve made Chocolate Marble Muffins before, but…
Lemon Meringue Cupcakes
During the past couple of the weeks, when we’ve seen a little more rain and clouds than we are used to, I decided to make the most of the time away from work and bake! I’ve been trying lots of…
Gluten Free Celebration Drip Cake
I’m often known for having a birthday week, or even a birthday month if I can get away with it, as it’s always fun to celebrate! This year has been a particulaly strange birthday, socially distanced from family and friends,…
