Good to look at. Good for your eyes.



Hummingbird Bakery's Carrot Cake extravaganza - usually a 4-tier construct, but in my case an Aztec mound. It's definitely THE BEST carrot cake recipe around: moist, lots of carrots, nutty and the cream-cheese icing is deliciously zesty. No butter, but pots of sunflower oil and equal amounts of sugar, so you can take a view on the "healthiness" of it.

Mocha cupcake recipe transformed

Those wonderful people at the Hummingbird Bakery have a wonderful Mocha cupcake recipe that I transformed into a cake for the school fair/fete. Delicious!

Hummingbird Banana loaf

Christa made banana loaf yesterday which was just scrummy - light and smooth with a good crumb. Not too stodgy. Really delish!

Hummingbird Bakery: Strawberry Cupcakes

The coming together of two great institutions - Hummingbird Bakery and Park Side Farm in Enfield has meant that we were able to produce this fab creation. Granny & Grandpa are visiting so we went to do some PYO at our local, Parkside. We picked punnets and punnets of strawbs (honestly, you can't believe how much we came home with!) and I'd got the Hummingbird recipe off Charlotte. It took a day or two to get all the ingredients prepped and little people at the ready, but we now have a plate of 15 cupcakes with strawberries at the bottom, vanilla sponge on top of that, and then a cream cheese icing topping, finished with crumbled digestive biscuits. The combination of which is quite sublime.
