When we chose 'Festive Favourites' as the theme for our December Sweet Adventures Blog Hop, the first thing that came to mind was 'how on earth am I expected to choose just one favourite dessert from the raft of holiday celebratory sweets that are out there'? It just isn't fair to all the others! But I managed [ha!] and if you're busy baking your way through December as well, make sure to join the SABH and link up your Festive Fav Dessert at the bottom of this post. You can also read more about … [Read more...]

The Great Australian Pavlova Blog Hop
Hey you! Yes, you. Stop looking around like there is someone else I could be talking to.

Blood Orange and Almond Upside-down Cake
I've made this cake a few times recently - all in the name of testing of course - tweeking ingredients, adjusting flavours, getting it just right. So when organic blood oranges made an appearance in the shops a couple of weeks back I couldn't pass up the opportunity to use them. Around the same time, the October Unprocessed initiative was launched for 2011.

Perfect Banana Cake with White Choc Passion-Fruit Icing

Now anyone popping over from October Unprocessed ~ waves ~ hi! ~ is looking at this cake and probably saying 'how is she listed on the #unprocessed posting roll-call and baking stuff like this?'. Easy, it's not for me ... I have been making the cakes for work birthdays lately and, well, there is not quite the desire that I have to eschew sugar and butter and white … [Read more...]
