Millionaire shortbread

My ultimate favourite baking treat. Millionaire shortbread.  A shortbread base with a smooth caramel on the top and then finished with a layer of melted chocolate. 

Coconut Ice

 An old fashioned classic- coconut ice.  They look so good with a white and pink layer. 

Caramel and chocolate fudge cake

 For my nephews big 10th birthday 🎂  I made a gooey chocolate fudge cake with a delicious caramel butter cream topping. 

Christmas cupcakes

 Festive cupcakes look so pretty with a touch of glitter on the top! 

Viennese biscuits

Light and buttery, these delicate chocolate covered biscuits are a real treat.  They are a bit fiddly to pipe into fingers or rosettes but worth it when you put one in  your mouth. Delicious! 

Christmas pudding

Homemade Christmas puddings are the best. I love the smell of the fruits and spices and if course, rum emitting from the pudding as it steams in the slow cooker.  I package the pudding for delivery in recyclable paper with a festive ribbon. 

Christmas cake 2020

I love the making a Christmas cake. Its very satisfying. The smell of rum infused cake as you feed it for a few weeks after baking it then covering  the cake with marzipan and royal icing. You can't beat it as a tradition leading up to Christmas.
