Raspberry Summer Cupcakes







These pretty little cupcakes are vanilla sponge cakes topped with a raspberry frosting.  The pink colour comes from the raspberries, no food colouring was added.  They are decorated with a sprinkling of raspberry powder, to give a boost to the flavour and topped with two pretty flowers.

Easter Teatime Treat




A Traditional Easter Simnel Cake.  This is a moist light fruit cake baked with natural marzipan in the middle between the two layers, which gives it a rich almond flavour.  It's then topped with another layer of almond paste and eleven balls, which are then slightly toasted.  Decorate with a pretty ribbon and sever as an Easter teatime treat.
