January 2015

Time for a quick round up of January - not been too busy this month, so here goes, first some lovely vegetable soup, not actually baking but was delicious and lasted me ages - loads of ingredients and very tasty

Some very delicious salted caramel cupcakes - went down a treat with my daughters work colleagues I'm given to understand ;-)

Some oat and raisin cookies, usual recipe which never fails, although these were a little crispier around the edges, may have left them in for just a minute too long, but middles were still fairly chewy

I tried a new recipe for a cherry and coconut cake - and was very pleased with the result

A sunflower seeded loaf

And the star bake for January - made by me up to and including the plain red icing picture, then decorated by my daughter Karen for her son's 4th birthday party, I think you can guess the theme?

Time to get ready for February baking now, any feedback/comments welcomed. Thanks for looking.
