RAW Baking

 I'd forgotten how much fun pasta is to make. It does take time but it's worth it. For 3 people, we used 2 cups plain flour, 3 eggs and a desert spoon of olive oil.  Knead all these ingredients together for about 10 minutes until it has an elastic texture and is not too wet.  Then pull.it through your pasta machine and voila! We made tagliatelle.  It takes 3 -4 minute's to cook. Truly delicious 😋   

 A 4 layered chocolate 🍫 😋 fudge cake to celebrate Erin and Layla's birthdays 🎂 🥳 

This is a summer themed birthday cake. A classic victoria sponge, topped with strawberries and edible borage flowers. It looks so pretty, if I say so myself.  Happy Birthday to my Brother in law, Paul.

 I made a classic victoria sponge birthday cake for my father in law, John who turned 80 yesterday. Filled with strawberry jam and butter icing. This cake is always a popular choice!

 This recipe reminds me a little bit if sticky toffee sponge receipe. It has a lovely toffee smell when cooking.  The dates are soaked in butter and hot water and then mashed up to create a toffee like substance.  Heres the link to the BBC recipe website  Date and walnut cake recipe . I sprinkled sugar and walnuts on the top.

Birthday Brownies for my sister's birthday on Wednesday. These triple chocolate brownie recipe creates soft, fudge like brownies which are delicious! This recipe uses milk and dark chocolate as well as a heaping of cocoa powder, giving an intense taste of chocolate. Even better add a scoop or 2 of vanilla ice-cream and some gold leaf on the top.
