Baking for big ones & for wee ones too.
Well this is a rather exciting thing to write… Baking with Granny has been named as a FINALIST in the Brilliance in Blogging Awards 2017 (The BiBs). A few weeks back I asked for you to consider nominating us in The BiBs on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram and of course, you lovely lot did not let us down!
I can still clearly remember my first encounter with Golden Syrup. I’d seen the infamous tin in Granny’s baking cupboard but it wasn’t until we first tried baking what would become my favourite cookie recipe that I really tasted this gold elixir. It’s a staple in British baking and most definitely the star ingredient of this Golden Syrup Cake.
It was actually one of our lovely Twitter followers who’d requested this recipe and of course, Granny had her go-to Rock Bun recipe right on cue! I’m pretty sure prior to this, the last time I made Rock Buns was in my High School Home Economics class and I’m pretty sure they were more rock than they were bun.
We were sent the ingredients for this recipe by Dr. Oetker. We were not compensated in any other way. All opinions are our own.
Fathers Day is just around the corner and whose Dad doesn’t enjoy a good cake? The lovely folk at Dr. Oetker recently got in touch to ask if we’d like to try out one of their recipes for Fathers Day and this Chai Caramel Cake was just too tempting to resist – perfect for making Dad’s day!
Confession time… I’m a sugar addict. It will be of no surprise to those around me to be fair! From the moment I wake up to the moment I go to bed, I’m looking for my next sugar hit. It’s certainly not ideal but growing up in Scotland with sweet treats like Scottish Tablet, it’s really unavoidable.

A sure sign of a recipe being a winner is when half of it is gone before I even manage to get photos! I knew the other half would like Almond Slice, given his love for Mr Kipling Bakewell Slices
Another day and another classic recipe. When it comes to baking, it’s easy to get swept up in the many recipes of the internet but I’m slowly learning that often, these recipes aren’t all that they’re cracked up to be. Melting Moments biscuits however are a recipe that I promise you’ll love!
They’re a literal obsession in our house. Requested every day after nursery as a ‘special treat’, the number one choice of Easter Egg
When it comes to Easter Baking there’s few things that can beat a Hot Cross Bun but in their ease to make, tray bakes are a good competitor. Last year we shared our Maltesers Slice recipe with a Easter twist and this year we’ve done it again with these Easter themed Rice Crispy Squares.
