Like church windows or Gaudi's mosaics? 🤷‍♀️😁This year's galette des rois - a chestnut and apricot one. So moist and delish. 😋👍 Adapted from recipe in Fou de Pâtisserie magazine #56 - Marc Riviere's galette marrons mandarine. Added candied orange pieces inside too. Apricot frangipane. Homemade inverted puff pastry (recipe on blog, link in bio). January is almost over! Time flies when you're baking!😉😅 Have a lovely weekend and continuing (lunar) New year! 😊🎊💕

On the to-do list for Chinese New Year this Sunday: make paste for pineapple tarts. 😋🍍🎊New version of illustration. Full post in archives - blog Link in profile then search for pineapple tarts. So addictive you might not want to share...😅👍 Have a lovely week! 🙋‍♀️😊💕

Happy new year 2023!!! 🎉🎊🤗💕Choo Choo love train bringing you cookies and beijinhos 😉 Reindeers on strike so sleigh being towed by Tracey the train driver 🦌🚂🤣🎊🎉 Wishing you all a wonderful year! 😘

Christmas smorgastarta, my little invention - adding coronation chicken and gingerbread to make an extra delish savoury Swedish sandwich cake 😉😋 Joining everyone @homemadeloversss Christmas party #hlfunbake306 Happy Christmas!🎄🎅🙋‍♀️😘

Tartelettes!!! 😋 Cassis-marron (blackcurrant-chestnut) following the fun and informative @thefrenchpatissier video course (in French) with the @aureliencohen recipe. Did a few tartlets with raspberry confit in a silikomart tourbillon mould. Not perfect tartlets but delish 😁 Have a great weekend! 🎊🎄🌰🙋‍♀️💕

'We will guard this cake with our lives!' said the gingerbread men. And a really yummy cake it was. Moist vanilla sponge, with raspberry jam and almond extract butter cream.😊 Nice texture contrast with the pistachios and coconut flakes. Should really post the recipe one day on the blog... Have a lovely end of the week and weekend! 😊🍇🍰☃️☀️

Lovely stuff you guys made from the blog!

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 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!’

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! :)

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!

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!

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.

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

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 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.
