Salted Caramel Hummingbird Cake

September 7, 2016

Dylan came home to this three layer tower that we didn’t know what to do with. It ended up being dropped off into his office where everyone could enjoy it the next day. I have to say it must be weird having someone’s girlfriend just send in towers of cake and treats just because she was bored at home.

Chocolate Drizzle Cake feat. Peanut Butter and Salted Caramel

August 10, 2015

So my Saturday was rather productive. I had plans to make a single cake for my friend's birthday. By 10am I had completed said cake and rather than cleaning up the bombsite that was my sprinkle covered dining table I decided to decorate up another. This second cake was for the sole purpose of eating. Also 'cause the economies of cleaning scale... saves me cleaning up twice in one weekend!

Birthday Cake

August 9, 2015

The problem with making cakes is that you need people to eat them. My flatmates and I will get through maybe about a third of a cake max before we lose interest or fear our sugar intake has exceeded the yearly maximum to eat too much more. I got invited to a friend's 25th birthday gathering and leapt at the opportunity to celebrate with cake!

Peanut Butter and Jam Cake

May 18, 2014

It was one particularly hangry night when my brother, Jack sensed the first signs of danger (they were pretty blatant) and in the fear for his and his girlfriend's safety, shoved a peanut butter and three berry jam sandwich in my face whilst I was driving home. Within three bites I was close to my normal and semi pleasant self again. Slash not really, but at least everyone would get out of the car at our destination in one piece.

Feijoa and Ginger Layer Cake

April 6, 2014

I am of the belief that if the pages of your cookbooks are too clean and pristine then they haven't been used enough.  This morning I opened up my immaculate Ripe: A fresh batch by Angela Redfern.

Apologies for the crap photos but I’d like to share the recipe for this family favourite. I’ve written about Dad’s favourite veggie casserole over on TheSupperClubKitchen.com under recipes worth sharing. It’s 90s nostalgia at
