Classic Victoria Sponge with Jam and Buttercream
When I first found out I was going to be placed on furlough, I didn’t know how much I would crave normality, or at least the new normality we’ve found ourselves in during the coronavirus pandemic. I missed the routine of sliding out of bed to make a cup of tea, pulling on comfortable leggings…
NYC Style Milk Chocolate and Hazelnut Cookies
As someone who bakes for a (partial) living, it may surprise you that over the past few months, I’ve been baking less and less for fun. A couple of years ago I would often have a weekend baking project or two on the go, but with a busy work schedule, nights out and impromptu after…
Looking back at 2019
This is the year that I turn 30. As the countdown to the New Year and new decade began in the pub Chris and I packed ourselves into at 11.30pm on December 31, I didn’t feel sad or upset at the number. I felt excited, like this coming year will begin a new chapter in…

There are always the times when it is useful; on occasion its warmer working on the ice than outside during the St Petersburg-esque Scottish winters, but more often than not, I will be working when everyone and…
Vanilla Snickerdoodles with Cinnamon Sugar
Sometimes in life, the simplest things are the best. Of course, I love playing around with food, creating new taste sensations like my Rosemary Syrup Cake with Lime Frosting. But sometimes, a simple sugar cookie dusted in cinnamon sugar and baked until chewy, crumbly and melt in the mouth is just as satisfying. Snickerdoodles are…
Marmalade Daisy Brownies
Everyone in my family has their own ‘thing’. Something that, should the occasion, celebration or the occasional Sunday call for it, can be whipped up without fear of catastrophe, sinking middles or soggy bottoms. For my sister, her thing is Focaccia. She can whip up a mean rosemary-spiked and salt slathered creation in no time,…
