RAW Baking

 Happy first birthday Fitness Forever! An inspirational fitness company offering Chair-based  Exercise Classes and Pilates Classes.  Anna and Karen, who run Fitness forever held a tea party with their clients on Saturday to celebrate their first birthday 🎂 

I enjoyed a few bits of lovely baking this bank holiday weekend. We enjoyed Rock cakes - a true classic and easy recipe (see my blog recipe section on how to make them).  1 rock cake is never enough and 2 rock cakes per person hit the spot perfectly with a cup of tea. I then made mini Victoria sponges. So pretty! We took these to a family picnic in our woods in Kent. Yummy 😍. Bring on another bank holiday for more baking treats!

 Happy Birthday to Chloe. Cannot believe she has turned 40! A classic Victoria sponge (everyone's favourite it seems!) filled with jam and buttercream.

What better to celebrate Easter with a vanilla cheesecake. I crunched up some mini eggs and mixed them in the cheesecake itself as well as adding mini eggs on top.  For the biscuit base, I used chocolate digestive biscuits.  On reflection,  the classic digestive biscuit base would have been better but I wanted to go with the chocolate theme!

A family favourite and the only dessert my husband and I agree on!!  Such a good pudding.  Takes time and effort to make but worth it. 

For my niece, Edens 13tj  birthday 🎂 I made a triple layered red velvet cake.  Each layer is filled with vanilla butter icing.
