Sourdough bread - break from the sweet stuff. 😉😋 No big holes, but delicious with lovely tender crumb. Belle loaf recipe from great @sourdoughschoolhouse sourdough series online course.😊👍 Hope you're having a good week. 🙋‍♀️💕

Because it's almost Easter...? 🤣😋 Was craving sourdough hot cross buns. Made some of them with added red bean paste or freeze-dried raspberries. Delish! 😋👍Joining the @homemadeloversss 😍 Homemade party at #hlfunbake215 because homemade really is happiness, and knowing what's in your food, having fun and experimenting with flavours.😊👩‍🍳👩‍🔬 Hope you've had a lovely weekend.🙋‍♀️❤

Must have chocolate for Valentines! 😉🍫💕 Except that it's already all been eaten!! 🤦‍♀️😂 Should maybe make more... Muscadines French chocolate milk truffles (heaven) with creamy ganache covered in tempered crisp chocolate. Plus rice krispie treats (yum) made with leftover tempered chocolate - no-waste initiative 😁 Both recipes just up on the blog. Link in bio then look for Muscadines. Because we all need chocolate. Have a good upcoming weekend! And happy Chinese New Year of the bull too! 😊🍫❤🐮🐂🎉🎊

Lunar New Year's coming. Time to make char siu bao! 😋🤗 Well, any time really. Barbecue pork steamed buns. Nom nom. Have a great weekend! 🙋‍♀️☀️💛

Did you know about fougasse monégasque, delish traditional cookies from the tiny principality of Monaco?🤗 💟Sourdough, but can be made with fresh/instant yeast. Amazing flavours: anise, orange blossom water, pine nuts, almonds... These sourdough ones were healthier, with overnight fermentation, and absolutely delicious. Step by step easy recipe and some cookie history on the blog.😁 Link in bio then look for fougasse monegasque, or just fougasse 😉 Have a good weekend! 🙋‍♀️☀️❤

Lovely stuff you guys made from the 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! :)

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!’

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.

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.

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

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!

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 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.

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!

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.
