Truffles are indulgent and a wonderful way to round off a dinner party. These are handmade, so don’t worry if they aren’t perfectly shaped!

This recipe bakes one 23cm/9in cake. However, there is plenty of mixture mix to make two
13cm/5in cakes so you can make one to eat and pop the other in the freezer.

Pavlova is one of those easy recipes that everyone thinks is very complex. Pavlova scares a lot of people but follow these fail-safe steps for a sure thing.

This is an absolute classic recipe and should be in every baker’s repertoire.

Whilst any madeira mixture works for cupcakes, this recipe is great because the cakes bake with
a flat top, which makes it easier for you to get creative with your piping skills.

I always feel spring is coming when Mother’s Day has arrived. Even if the weather doesn’t
oblige, I like to bake a cake that invokes springtime. This is a lovely cake for a family Sunday
lunch. If you do not like to use mascarpone cheese, then use all freshly whipped cream.

one sitting! Alternatively, you can make bite-sized tartlets, as I have shown in the photo here,
but one of those will not be enough, I guarantee!

There’s something indulgent about this recipe and it’s really filling so you will only manage one square at a time. This recipe holds really well in an airtight container for a week or so but it will be absolutely demolished before the week is over!

This is an all-in-one recipe, so a great one when you are caught for time.
