Bakewell Bliss!

My finished Bakewell Tart.

I've been ill for the past couple of weeks with a really bad cold and chest infection so I haven't done any baking or picked up my camera since, until today.
Im almost better now, so last night I done some baking and made my first ever Bakewell Tart. Its made with sweet shortcrust pastry, raspberry jam and frangipane filling. It tastes absolutely gorgeous!
I found the recipe through this blog http://creampuffsinvenice.ca/2009/06/28/first-time-for-everything/ and followed the link to the recipe here http://cardamomaddict.blogspot.co.uk/2009/06/daring-bakers-bakewell-tarterpudding.html If you love Bakewell Tarts this recipe is a must to try.

Tasty Easter goodies :)

This week I thought I would feature a seller on Esty and a blogger I follow known as Marmalady. Shes from Derbyshire here in the UK and she sells in her shop all sorts of traditional homemade tasty treats that look fabulous. Take a look at the Easter cakes below that she has just recently added to her shop along with a few other treats that will make you drool :)
Check out her blog too http://marmalady1.blogspot.com/

These cookies look so good!

Oh how I love Lemon Curd.

 I've tried a few attempts to make fudge but it never works, good job I suppose otherwise I would make it all the time. This chocolate fudge looks delicious.
