Pastry, blackberry jam and some icing sugar

Delicious hearts

When I feel restless and lose my focus...

...I head towards the kitchen and bake a cake. Mom joins in also to help me choose the recipe and make sure all goes smoothly, the cake looks lovely, on top underneath the icing sugar you can spot slices of apples from the orchard and between two layers of dough we put some delicious apricot jam, alas it is not homemade.
The cake is still cooling off so we have decided to wait until tomorrow to taste it,... I don't usually sleepwalk, but I think I might tonight, and probably will go straight towards the kitchen.

Icing sugar on the tiny star...

Mumsy and I love baking on Saturday afternoons; last Saturday we baked a Victoria sponge cake and this little cute star.

Apricot jam, whipped cream and some icing sugar...

Far Breton

Mum and I decided to bake a traditional cake from Brittany, the Far Breton. I think it is one of the easiest and fastest cakes to prepare and it is utterly delicious! I found the recipe at www.epicurious.com

Here is the direct link to the recipe:

Sugar and colours...

We have been baking...

Mum and I have been busy baking and we simply love this cake mould! The cake itself is simple, sponge cake with some raisins and Marsala liqueur, definately yummy! We also baked a chocolate version: we poured melted milk cooking chocolate all over the petals, gorgeous!
