Occasionally I get cake cravings. Not necessarily to eat them, but to make them. I don't usually act on them, but I've given in more since starting Tierly Beloved ;)

This time, it was an Oreo cake. I've always… https://t.co/2vHT12CZ1h

Experiment time: honey tea bread!

This is a recipe from the @nationaltrust Teatime Baking Book. The flavour was absolutely delicious (I used chopped hazelnuts on the top), but the texture was a bit unusual. Very… https://t.co/ryYPHEyir9

How to make a subtle 50th birthday cake?

Completely by accident as it turns out. This is a dairy free, gluten free, nut free chocolate cake, and I decided that gold would be nice and smart. When I showed a picture,… https://t.co/w9mXXSUvBh

Experimental slightly Polish baking!

Poppyseed and coconut yoghurt traybake, with white chocolate Swiss meringue buttercream. Quite tasty, not sure on the texture yet. Might be fine. I'm… https://t.co/KmsTj0kgJl
