Salted caramel is one of my very favourite things so when I was approached to create a bespoke recipe using a vegan salted caramel sauce from Bad Brownie company I jumped at the chance. What better way to get the creative juices flowing than having a delicious new product to use as a starting point…

Tropical flapjacks
Sunny days call for not just food for outdoors but also bright tropical flavours, hence the inspiration for these deliciously lush oaty bars. Flapjacks are one of the best packable foods- they’re sweet and delicious and stand up to be lugged about in a hot backpack, and even in the worse case scenario of them…
Easy Cinnamon Bun Twists
I love an easy pastry, one of those recipes that throw a few ingredients together and end up with a superb tasty sweet treat that everyone wows over. These easy cinnamon bun twists are just that, taking only a few minutes and little skill to end up with something that’s sure to get plenty of…
Popcorn cereal bars
Next up in the recipes from cupboard odds and ends and these stunningly delicious popcorn cereal bars. Big S and I have been on a mission to organise our larder. It’s quite an ongoing project but we’re going from a chaotic cupboard stuffed full to the seams to beautifully tidy pantry full of stacked glass…
Cupboard raid cookies
I’m really into baking with what’s to hand at the moment. Restrictions maybe easing here but I think I’ve gotten used to not just nipping to the shops whenever I fancy, and instead fully planning before each shop. But despite meal planning, more often than not an idea strikes and I don’t have the ingredients…
Cinnamon sugar cookies aka snickerdoodles
Don’t you just love the sweet spicy scent of cinnamon? There’s something so warm and inviting about this woody spice, especially when it’s baking in the oven, it makes the house smell like heaven. Snickerdoodles are a big thing in the USA but until I started fanatically reading recipe books I’d never really come across…
Homemade chocolate cookie selection box
Those pretty selection boxes of chocolates or cookies always look so tempting. I think they’re often a little disappointing but they always look like you want to dive in and choose some sweet delight. Since my mission is always to recreate those delicacies that are not available if you’re avoiding certain foods and so a…
Chocolate and Candy Cane Biscuits
I’ve seen a lot of tempting bakes using candy canes this winter. There’s something about the eye catching red and white stripes that really sand out and make these bakes look all the more tempting. I initially had visions of rolling chocolate truffles in crushed up candy canes but sadly the canes were a bit…
Pepparkakor – Swedish Ginger Thins
I always love a cooking challenge and so was happy to be asked for a Pepparkakor recipe. These Swedish Ginger thins are a Scandinavian Christmas must have and rightly deserve a place on my site. I’ve only had the Anna brand ones, those very thin crisp flower shapes biscuits often found in health food shops….
