Unfortunately it appears I bake faster than I blog, this need not be a problem though as I'm guessing no one is an avid reader at this stage anyway. As I sat at my laptop listening to Cher I felt the urge to blog, whether it was Cher's message to me or the lyrical genius of 'Turn Back Time' that drove me I shall never know. Anyway, I think it's safe to say for future reference; No Cher - No blog. So what have I been baking?...
With Christmas comes a whole host of yummy food and drink, therefore to lower the tone I decided to turn out some 'Snow Covered Ginger Buns', this isn't a pair of white man's bum cheeks with a slightly sandy tone to them, it's baking genius - They all got scoffed. I generally don't enjoy ginger, that includes; the fresh stuff, ground ginger, ginger biscuits, ginger people, ginger ale, and the aforementioned 'Snow Covered Ginger buns', but as my family eat near enough anything, as long as they don't need to prepare it, I was in luck.
Thanks to the Samsung Galaxy Ace (powered by Android) 5.0 megapixel camera with optical zoom I was able to capture the 'snow' effect, and also the tacky bit of plastic holly I dug up out of the cupboard for that extra special 'ASDA - Chosen by You' feel. I mainly bake with silicone moulds so I can tip them out and decorate them, on the odd occasion I will use the paper cases and inevitably burn the cake to them. All tray bakes, cupcakes and muffins are silicone based, with cheesecakes and flans being thrown into an 'old tart' dish.
Apologies for the bakery backlog, i'm getting through it slowly but surely. Chocolate and Pecan Blondie, Chocolate Cheesecake cupcakes, banoffee pie, caramel cheesecake, sticky toffee pudding, Banana and Honey Cupcakes, and upside down toffee apple cake to follow...
