This morning I realised I didn’t ever share this cake with you! A few weeks ago I wanted to make a celebration cake for some friends that were passing a nine week training course at work. This was the first cake that came to mind. I love Jamie Oliver recipes and find they always come…
Easy chocolate and whipped cream cupcake recipe
I don’t know if you have tried any recipes with fresh cream frostings rather than buttercream? I haven’t looked back since to be honest! It makes the cake taste so much lighter and is definitely not so sickly! So when I was asked to make some birthday cupcakes for a training group at work, I…
Rolo Cupcake Recipe
Mmmmm….chocolate sponge, caramel filling and a chocolate fresh cream topping! Sound good?…. It was my husbands birthday this week and he requested some cupcakes to take into work.

These Ultimate Triple Chocolate Cupcakes feature 3 different types of chocolate! A mixture of Dark/Extra Dark chocolate sponge with a light and fluffy white chocolate frosting.

How to make chocolate truffles
I didn’t get round to posting last weekend as I was at a Hen Party. As part of the party we went to the Chocolate Boutique Hotel in Bournemouth to take part in a chocolate making workshop. I had a go at making truffles a few Christmases ago and they went ok, but I…
