Salty sweet Monday with a pretzel cake... ! 😋 An interesting one - 150g of ground mini pretzels in there! But gluten free flour so lower gluten, lower sugar with a third replaced by xylitol birch substitute and burnt honey and cream glaze. Tasty and generally given thumbs up by work colleagues who talked of that yummy salty-sweet blend - what Christina Tosi was aiming for with this recipe from her new All about Cake book. 😊👍 - - - #homemadecakes #pretzelcake #pretzels #minipretzels #loafcake #christinatosirecipe #cakestagram #instacakes #eat #cakesallday #lowergluten and #lowersugar #cakes #xylitol #honey #glutenfreeflour #sweetandsaltycake #sweetandsalty #foodpic #cakepic #foodphotos #instafood #snacks #ilovecakes #nomnom 💛🤗

Best lemon poppyseed cake ever! 🍋😋 Adapted from another Tosi recipe from her new book All About Cake. There are bits of lemon segments in there and juice or zest from about 12 lemons!!!! Verrrry nicely lemony. Work colleagues and friends loved this cake and most preferred it with the moist glaze but some liked it without - healthier and more zippy.😊👍💛 Will experiment with healthier glaze and less sugar...😉 - - - #homemade #lemonpoppyseedcake #lemonpoppyseedbundtcake #bundtcake #lemonbundtcake #lemons #glutenfreeflour #honey #moistcake #christinatosirecipe #cakestagram #eat #cakes #eatcakes #poppyseeds #bakingcakes #foodpics #foodphotography #foodies #foodstagram #ilovecakes #yumyum 😋🍋🍋🍋

Your bread was amazing (whatsapp message from a friend who'd eaten slices of this on the way home - couldn't wait). Happy. 😊👍🎃 - - - #homemadebread full recipe on the blog, link in bio then search for roti sisir #illustratedrecipe #sourdoughbread or #instantyeast #sourdoughpumpkinbread #pumpkinloaf #pullapartloaf #pumpkin #sourdoughbaking #illustratedrecipe #illustratedrecipes #fooddrawing #inthekitchen #indonesianbread #rotisisir #needtoknead by hand or on standmixer #ilovebakingbread #itspumpkinseason #eatmorebread 😉

Lovely stuff you guys made from the blog!

A delicious seed and nut loaf made by Claudette in London. She reports ‘cannot stop eating it … it is really delicious’ And she used more pumpkin than sunflower seeds and a little chestnut flour too.

Extremely tasty-looking Lamingtons by Annette in New Zealand. Lovely and moist even without cream inside, she reports. So tempting piled up on that pretty plate. Yum!

Scrumptious orange & rum fruitcake-cake Anglais by Stéphanie in Tahiti ‘This cake is just delicious :) I brought one in the office today and it just vanished in a few minutes! Every one loved it :)’ she reports. Lovely local rum, vanilla, honey!

Lovely brioche rolls made by Annette in New Zealand! ‘They turned out really well thanks, my boys certainly enjoyed them, all gone now!’ she reports. But be careful – she noticed that if you don’t use invert sugar or honey but just caster sugar, you’ll need to add a little extra water.

Yummy wholemeal spelt croissants by Dookes. Very well-shaped and nicely risen too! ‘For a first attempt I have to say I’m pretty pleased. They certainly pass the taste test’ says Dookes.

A fantastic slice of Apple tarte tatin with Chinese 5 spices and Tamarind by Claudette, aka mum! :) It was very nice and using maple syrup is ‘genius’ she reports. The Pink Lady apples used were ‘lovely, juicy and firm’ and cooked on the ring a little over 10 mins. Plus the pastry browned quite quickly so was covered with foil towards the end.

A beautiful orange and rum fruitcake-cake Anglais fruitcake made by Dookes! Looks moist and delicious! Dookes’ comments: ‘seriously good!’ and ‘fantastico’!! You can find the guest post recipe at http://wp.me/p2sQo3-US And Dookes’ cake report is at https://hogriderdookes.wordpress.com/2015/03/18/lilis-biker-cake-made-and-tasted/ on his Hogrider Dookes blog.

A stunning Gâteau Moka by Kate in Cornwall. The piping is wonderful and she was very pleased with it. She also mentions the cake was delish! :)

Perfect healthy spelt digestive biscuits by Claudette in London. So yummy for tea! :)

A fabulous Raspberry charlotte by Kate! Loads of raspberries and great sponge finger casing! The assembly part was actually really easy! and ‘it tasted amazing’ she says, adding it ‘will definitely become a regular pudding in our household!’
