Subsiding chocolate fudge birthday cake

The very hot weather this summer made cake making very challenging. I left this birthday cake to `set' in the kitchen but it was so hot, the sponge slid partially off the bottom part leaving a very subsided looking cake. And would it slide back together. Of course not. So I left it and renamed the cake `Climate crisis chocolate cake.' 😂

Plum crumble cake

A great easy traybake recipe using the plums from my garden. I added some cinnamon as well. A layer of plums on the bottom, with a layer of sponge on top then finished with a crumble topping. Very tasty  on its own or with a scoop of ice cream. 

Chocolate cream pie

A decadent chocolate mousse filling on top of a biscoff biscuit base. I decorated the tart with some edible, very pretty nasturtium flowers from my garden!

Most popular cake this summer

Another order for the summer classic and a favourite for 2022. The strawberry 🍓 and fresh cream sponge.  I added a few edible borage flowers as decoration.  A very popular choice for birthdays 🎂 Happy birthday to my brother in law Paul!
