    Today I made wholemeal bread and Swedish style cinnamon buns. A while ago I posted a question about how to get seeds to stick to bread. Someone advised brushing the top of the loaf with warm water after the second proving. Well I tried it today and it really worked. The seeds didn't all fall off as soon as I tried to cut the loaf :) And the cinnamon buns are as good as anything I've ever eaten in Sweden so a successful day's baking!

    I would love the recipe for Cinnamon buns ... I made some last week (using a mary berry recipe) and they were Ok on the day but nasty and stale the next day.

    Dark Chocolate fondant pudding

    125g butter

    125g caster sugar

    150g dark Chocolate (70% is best) I used milk and was still lovely

    3 eggs

    35g plain flour sifted

    cocoa powder for dusting



    Put butter and chocolate in a heat proof bowl, place over a pan of simmeringwater and melt slowly, resist the temptation to mess about with it but makesure it's not burning.

    Whisk eggs and sugar together until smooth then add the sifted flour.Once chocolate mixture has melted, let it cool slightly and combine it with eggmixture. Don't pour the hot chocolate into the eggs or you will end up withchocolate scrambled egg.

    The basic mix is now ready so chill it in the fridge for an hour or so asthis makes it easier to use later.

    To cook fondants you will need ramekins, dariole moulds or small-tin foilpudding moulds.

    Brush these with melted butter and dust with cocoa powder. Fill two thirdsfull and bake in a hot oven at 190c for 8-10 mins until the outside of thepudding has set but the centre is still runny. makes 4 to 6 puddingsdepending on size of the ramekin.

    I baked a fruit cake for our picnics next week - caravan holiday

    And a Betty Crocker packet mix = carrot cake. Like a sandwich cake with jam in the middle and my own butter icing on the top.
    The secret to success is making very small, yet constant changes.:)
