A little box of loveliness....

Cupcake glamour....

Go on, join the cupcake revolution and add a touch of cupcake glamour to your weekend....

Cupcake anyone?

What better way to start the weekend, than with a fun and frivolous cupcake (or two!) Shown here - chocolate mocca, zesty lemon, almond, double chocolate and coffee lover's dream made from real espresso - just the caffeine fix you've been looking for!

A lucky find....

I'd been looking for an enamel bread bin for some time and then a chance visit to the local swimming pool of all places, turned into a lucky find! Unwittingly, I stumbled across an arts, crafts and antique fair, and more importantly, the lovely Julie, owner of The Cloth Shed - home of decorative accessories and vintage finds. I don't know what you think? But I think the vintage green enamel bread bin looks rather at home in my kitchen!

Could there be a scent so sweet....

as that of the wonderful aroma of a Caramelised Apple Cake in the baking? The warm sweetness of the light brown sugar, combined with the freshness of the apples - a real scent of home! The finished result, a moist creation, that's not quite a sponge and not quite an apple pie, but delectably delicious, especially served warm with a generous dollop of the finest vanilla ice-cream.

Not so much Blueberry Hill, but Blueberry cake....

I found my thrill.... With Blueberry cake,
Oh, Blueberry cake, When I found you.

In all it's glory....

There aren't too many people who fail to succumb to the morish moistness of a Carrot cake. This one vanished in no time at all! Containing juicy organic carrots, raisins and chopped walnuts, then finished off with a light and fluffy cream cheese frosting, a very light dusting of cinammon and a generous sprinkling of more chopped walnuts. Whole walnuts were then added all around the outside for that final  'wow' factor.
