It’s National Cupcake Week! Of course, the girls and myself couldn’t let it pass us by without baking some cupcakes to enjoy. I used a recipe from the cupcake book they chose for me for my birthday for the cake, and totally cheated with icing-in-a-tub. Lydia helped me mix the sponge while Georgie was at …
We were sent three sets from the Annabel Karmel Casdon baking range; the Pizza Making Set (£4.50 at Tesco Direct), the My Perfect Pastry Set (£20 at Amazon), and the Mini Cupcake Set with Utensils (£11.49 at Amazon).
This fab Pastry Set is jam-packed – you get a lot for your money! 10 cookie cutters, a mixing bowl, a round baking tin, a whisk, a set of 6 measuring spoons, a rolling pin, a spatula, a mini tart pan, a measuring jug, and 10 recipes. The cookie cutters are a little small but everything else is fantastic.
Georgie loves to bake with me so when we were sent this baking set to review she was over the moon. The Bigjigs Toys Young Chef’s Baking Set includes child size versions of almost everything you need to bake cakes or biscuits, including a tiny oven glove which is utterly adorable.

I love to bake with the girls and Georgie’s favourite thing to bake is, without a doubt, cupcakes. I have been trying out different recipes for our cupcakes and have ended up with this yummy & light recipe that is pretty much baking-with-kids-foolproof. I can always depend on James’s co-workers to demolish any excess baked …
We’ve reviewed some Cake Angels products in the past, and generally been quite impressed. This time around, we were sent some of their new summer range, including a fab range of decorations and the ice cream cone cupcake kit.
We were challenged to try out the Salter Heston Blumenthal Precision Professional Whisk & Multipurpose Spatulas whilst making pancakes, so at the weekend my Dad and I measured out the ingredients and gave it a whirl.
We used a recipe from a very old children’s cookbook that my dad swears by. Our batter had 12oz flour, 1 1/2 pints of milk, 3 eggs, and a pinch of salt. This produced enough batter for the kids to share a pancake & the four adults to have 3 or 4 each.
A few days ago my dad had a pretty awful headache, and so I tried my best to keep the kids out of his way to let him rest. In the morning we were busy playing with Georgie’s new Nancy doll, and then in the afternoon, once Lydia was safely down for her nap, I …
I only just got my hands on the new Cake Angels Christmas range at the weekend, and so on Sunday Georgie, Dad & I baked up a storm in time for lunch with family friends yesterday. We had great fun!
We were sent a Cake Angels Graveyard Flapjack Kit and pot of Halloween Sprinkles to do some halloween themed baking, and Georgie and I had great fun making some yummy and very colourful treats.
The flapjack kit was really simple to mix up and comes with its own disposable cardboard tray, which eliminates the need for you to have a tray the right size at home already. Inside the box you get a pack of flapjack mix, one of icing sugar, a little bag of green sprinkles and some sugar wafer gravestones.
