    They look so fab. I love to see cakes on a cake stand as well.

    They look amazing don't they?

    I haven't made any cakes for a few days, need to get my baking hat back on, and might make a Lemon Drizzle tomorrow. :)
  • I am so inspired by all of your baking and those fairy cakes look lovely, its a shame i live in a house full of boys and no girls to appreciate pink icing :rotfl:

    Now the weather is getting colder and with ds1 now at school full time ds2 and i will be starting to bake yummy treats for the family and lunchbox fillers as well as gifts for Christmas :)

    Thanks for all of the ideas, ill be watching this thread closely from now on :)

    I made shortbread for the boys lunchboxes, it has to be about the easiest thing in the world to make. I also pureed a load of fruit and veg for the little ladies weaning trays, fun!

  • Hi all

    Lovely looking cakes up there.

    Today I made a Weetabix loaf (I always have to cook it for over twice the time). I don't actually like it but DH does.

    I made a banana bread too and I used less sugar and I found it beautiful.

    Now, that's where my success ended because I wasted flour, egg, cheese, milk, bacon - and all because I was trying NOT to waste an avocado. I found a recipe for avocado and cheese muffins. EEEEK they were horrendous and they're all in the bin. The recipe called for a tablespoon of honey and I think that's what did it. Double YUK!!

  • I just made fabulous brownies, the recipe is on page one of the Grocery Challenge, but I didn't frost them. Very nice they were, too. I had planned on doing a lemon drizzle but my electric beaters have died a death and I am having a flare up, so had to find something which didn't require a lot of hand working.
