Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Carrot and orange muffins

    • alexthepink on October 03, 2019

      Delicious and easy to make. The kids loved them.

  • Squashy rhubarb cake

    • alexthepink on November 25, 2019

      Delicious and very squashy! The amount of rhubarb seems like way too much, but I kept faith and it turned out perfectly. I used slightly more sugar with the rhubarb filling as 1tbsp didn't seem like very much. The filling is slightly tart, which I like. A keeper.

  • Citrus polenta cake

    • alexthepink on June 12, 2019

      Absolutely delicious, light and moist. One to make again.

  • Hot cross buns

    • knittingfrog on April 23, 2015

      Not enough salt... Probably would need around 1 tsp. As per recipe result had good texture but was bland.
