Gingerbread feast.. 😁😋 Soft long fermentation gingerbread (honey and flour dough) for over a month with pottasche and bakers ammonium added after (extremely strong smell, rather alarming... 😅). I never used to like gingerbread that much but love this one. Friends loved it too, also more without the chocolate. Link to Claus Meyer's recipe and info are on previous IG post. They keep 1 month in the fridge so you can make them in advance...! 😉🍁🎄💛 - - - #homemadegingerbread #gingerbreadcookies #honeygingerbread #softgingerbreadcookies #softgingerbread #longfermentation #pandejengibre #paindepicemaison #paindepices #chocolatecoveredgingerbread #eat #christmastreats #foodies #teatime #xmasbaking #clausmeyerrecipe #foods #cookiestagram #instacookies #foodphotography #foodstagram #itsxmasintheair #smellslikechristmasinhere #yummycookies 😋💛🎄

Homemade soft old-style honey gingerbread!!! 😋👏🐝 So amazingly spiced with equal amounts of ground cloves, cinnamon and ginger. Mellow and not too sweet. Made with a pre-dough (mixed 1 month ago!! 😱😆). So best start now for your Xmas gingerbread cookies..🤣 Based on Claus Meyer's recipe in his Meyer's Bakery book and online: https://www.virago.co.uk/cookbook-confidential-blog/2017/12/11/gingerbread-hearts/ Except I prefer them plain or with a little icing sugar and water glaze brushed on. With the chocolate (tempered and 50%cocoa) I couldn't taste the spices so well - um and my chocolate was a bit thick but snappy.😅😁 Yum yum.. - - - #homemadegingerbread #gingerbread #clausmeyerrecipe #startmixing #predough #gingerbreadhearts #honeygingerbread #cinammon #groundginger #groundcloves #chocolatecoveredgingerbread #paindepice #paindepicemaison #pandegengibre #prechristmasbaking #itsnevertooearlyforchristmas 😆 #foodies #eat #nottoosweet #gingerbreadcookies #softgingerbread Made with #pottasche and #bakersammonia ! #teatime #food #yummysoftcookies #lovebaking 😍🙋‍♀️

It's that burnt cheesecake again! 😆😋😋 Hard to believe something so easy is sooo delicious. Based on original la Viña recipe - recipe on blog. Glutenfree. A bit less sugar and cream. Ahem.Link in Bio then search for burnt cheesecake 😋👍 Inspired to make it by the #hlfunbake149 challenge.😘😘 - - - #homemadecheesecake #burntcheesecake #basqueburntcheesecake #basquecheesecake #spanishcheesecake #easyrecipe #philadelphiacreamcheese #chessecakes #yummytummycheesecakes #cakestagram #instacake #ilovecheesecakes #bakinghappiness #foodphotos #foodies #eat #glutenfreecheesecakes #glutenfreecakes #cheesecakelovers 😍💖

Lovely stuff you guys made from the blog!

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

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 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!

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 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 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 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!
