Another lovely sunny morning - I’ve been given a reprieve from moving rubble today 💪🏻😀💃💃 so escaped to my sanctuary (the kitchen) - getting carried away as usual 😜 3 chocolate cakes, 2 coffee and walnut cakes, 2 dozen chocolate chip cookies, a traditional trifle and a dozen big cheese and sundried tomato scones so far - haha - love making things that bring happiness to others - just wish I could share them with you all - missing my Tearoom and my lovely customers - take care everyone and will post photos later x
Hi Donna. Do you have a favourite cake recipe?. Am making another cake for my daughter to take to work at the hospital to share with staff on her unit. The coconut one was delicious.xx
Great minds think alike! I've escaped to my kitchen this morning, quiche for dinner, beetroot brownies, and bacon and cheese puffs for lunch. Mowing this pm 🙁
Great if you could spare the ingredients. Take it easy you might not get out to the shops again. Stay safe x
Is it possible to buy a cake or part of a cake? Maybe in exchange for some fresh chicken? We have loads of chicken products coming back from the market, but I think my kids would rather have cake;) PM me if Vente Direct possible !
Here are my vegan banana and walnut muffins
it's a beautiful day here too not far from hattlepool. I am gardening not been anywhere for weeks getting plenty jobs done x
Flippin heck, wish I was locked down with you! Sounds delicious x
Sounds fab,might be able to call in when this is all over

Fabulous idea, wishing you well xx
Wished that I lived nearer, as I would be straight down
My idea of dieting ... only decorate half a cake at a time haha 😂 This is Coffee and Walnut cake with Pear jam and mascarpone buttercream mmmm
I’m so gutted we can’t come to France as we wanted to see you both and to try your delicious cakes. We will come as soon as this all finished. Stay safe xx
Crikey - this looks so yummy...well done you and why aren't you the size of a house? I'm already half way there and if I baked cakes and ate the results I'd be housebound - permanently!
Are you and Paul eating all the cakes as a reward for all your hard work?
Wow. Looks so delicious x
Looks good. Xx
As promised a couple of photos from my baking day yesterday:) yum ... diet out of the window yesterday so cooking Roast Chicken and vegetables for tea 😇 haha
Wow they look amazing 😉
Loving the trifle. My favourite. stay safe x
Bloody lockdown! When I see what I’m missing I could cry 😩👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
They look very tasty Love a bowl of trifle xx
That trifle looks fantastic
Yummy
I thought today I would bake one of my favourite cakes - it is Mother’s Day after all (wishing all the mums out there a wonderful day) - it’s Coconut Cake - a lovely light, soft cake and one piece is just never enough 😈
I tend to cook cakes like this in loaf tins as so much easier to slice 🙂
Recipe -
Cream together 340g butter with 250g sugar then add 5 lge eggs, 380g SR Flour, 1tsp vanilla essence, 1tsp almond essence, 1 1/2tsp baking powder, 1/2tsp baking soda, 1 cup milk and 110g shredded coconut - once combined add to buttered/lined tins and bake at 180 degrees for around 45 minutes
For the décoration
I personally like a little jam in my cakes - so I have used my own homemade Pear Jam which is delicately flavoured and allows the coconut to still come through - but entirely up to you what you use.
I then use a buttercream with a little mascarpone added yum
Again decoration up to you (go wild) - mine is buttercream with a sprinkling of coconut and a cherry on top.
Have a go - hope you enjoy 😉
I’m off to have a cup of coffee and a piece of cake 👍
Hello, the mother's day is the sunday 7 June in France 😉...
Ooh, I love nre recipes, so will try this, thank you. Loaf cakes are great aren't they. I tend to make two smaller ones and freeze one for another day. Today's effort for me was sticky gingerbread cake and cheese scones, but having to ration my eggs and flour I probably won't be able to bake as often. 🥚🌼. 😊
That sounds delicious. As soon as I have enough eggs and flour I will give it a go. Just managing to get the basics at the moment, but not flour😢
I love cakes like this too it's usually lemon drizzle cake I make. .definitely yours is on my list..thank you x
I love coconut cake. They look amazing.x
Thanks for your great recipes x
Looks so tasty x
Look lovely. Never thought of making pear jam
Maureen, 225 ml liquid = 1 cup. Enjoy xx
Sorry to ask but how much is a cup of milk?
Does the quantities stated make the 2 cakes or did you double up please
Oh I might try this xx
They look like a tastie wee bite to try Michael Tindal-Vincent?
Oh I love coconut cake ....👏👏👏👏
