Treats
The Ones to Treat the Family!
Here are the ones that are definitely for sharing – family tea times, get togethers with friends, just made to be shared.
The Ones to Treat Yourself!
Here are the ones that I would be tempted to make and hide – the less people know you’ve made them the better otherwise they’re gone in no time at all!
The One for the Kids to Make
Always good to have a quick rainy afternoon activity so here’s my top 3 recipes for the kids to have a crack at!

Chocolate Chip Cookies – who’d say no to one of these?
Victoria Sandwich Inside Surprise Cake
There’s been a lot of you asking for me to do a surprise cake tutorial on the blog after seeing the birthday cake I made for my eldest. If you didn’t see it here it is – a giant green skittle hiding a ton of skittles inside.
Brioche Burger Buns
I love a good burger on a toasted Brioche bun, trouble is it’s not something you seem to be able to buy easily. So, with us definitely heading towards a spell of BBQ weather I’ve slightly adapted by Brioche recipe (which you’ll find in my new Bread Making book) so I can get some burgers on the go!
White Chocolate Mud Cake
Looking for a Father’s Day Showstopper? Here’s just the cake – a White Chocolate Mud Cake with white chocolate frosting wrapped with a chocolate collar and topped with fresh juicy British strawberries!
A big thank you goes to Jess Taylor who inspired me over on facebook to create this this week, and whilst my Dad doesn’t have a sweet tooth so won’t appreciate a big slice, he has been in the kitchen with me whilst I made it.
Flapjack Bars
I know I’ve done flapjack before but this one is a bit different, its a thick buttery fudgy type bar flapjack, like you might pick up when you’re out and about. Great big slabs of flapjack with a good old layer of chocolate on the top.
Giant Cupcake Cookie Dough Bowl!
Who wants to dive in head first?
You don’t just have to bake cakes in the your Giant Cupcake Tin – time to get them out from languishing in the back of the cupboard and put them to some inventive uses.
Chocolate Giant Cupcake Recipe
Lots of you have requested cake recipes for a giant cupcake tin, so I thought I’d put them on the blog for you all to use. You can pretty much use any cake recipe but how much? I have to admit in the past I’ve just made a big old batch of cake mix, filled up the tin and then used the extra for cupcakes, so you don’t have to you’ll be pleased to hear I’ve worked out quantities for you!
Easiest Celebration Cake Ever!
This has got to be the quickest easiest celebration cake I’ve ever made. You can put it together in next to no time and makes a brilliant change from cake!
