RAW Baking

Spring is coming. The daffodils are coming out and blossom is showing. With this in mind, I made springtime cupcakes for my mum's birthday. Delicate pink sponge cake with vanilla butter icing topped with a spring flower.

According to Lee Dingain, this is the BEST (non RAW Baking ) dessert he has ever had. It was a homemade jaffa cake. Its a bit airy fairy for my liking - but Lee loved it.

Mum and I visited my friend, Kate on Sunday and enjoyed earl grey tea with cherry cake and a few strawberries. Very nice for a sunday afternoon!

My first attempt at granola bars - a bit of apple juice, sunflower sees and oats and I have to admit they are quite tasty.

RAW Baking also does mail order. Here's some customer feedback on the Hairy Bikers version of Rocky Road, including Mars Bars, Treacle, Marshmallows and shortbread! Note the very environmentally friendly packaging and clearly written address.

My first attempt at making whoopie pies. They turned out slightly larger than I anticipated but they look `whoopie pie shape.' Not sure they replace the lovely cupcake but they seem to be getting ever more popular.

My all time favourite english comfort food pudding - sticky toffee pudding. This was a nice quick easy Nigella recipe. Made on Sunday for the Stephens family to enjoy - finishing of the last of the pudding in the dish was delicious!
