  • I'm waiting for my slimming world cake pops to bake, and then need to figure out what to decorate them as.

    I'm thinking of doing a trial run of a farmyard themed party I've offered to bake some cakes for.

    Ha ha - I'd be too embarassed!

    turned out all right but a bit crumbly, probably because I used wholemeal flour. In fact the top looked cracked like a baked cheesecake (or like one of mine anyway!) :D

    Also, it was too sweet but would definitely make again, just tweek the ingredients; less sugar & more spice. Having said that, I wouldn't make it as a cake but as a pudding.;)

    Would be great fun for small children
  • Hi all, I've baked a greengage crumble and banana bread with dark chocolate chips today.

    Are you thinking pudding because of texture? Do you put a topping on? So wanted to see a photo.

  • Today I made 6 little plum tarts/pies with plums donated by father in law.

    I accidentally made savoury pastry but it turned out fairly ok considering I never ever make pies/tarts! :j
    Simplify and then Simplify some more!

    I've made sourdough bread and a rhubarb and strawberry crumble. Very fattening but rather tasty and enough filling left over for breakfast with Greek yoghurt tomorrow.

    yes, it was more of a dense sponge. Actually, everyone had another square but made up custard to go with it.

    Think I've discovered why the top cracked - apparently my daughter didn't realise it was in the oven & flashed the temp up higher & then opened the door to put in some chicken.
