Lorraine Pascale's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Zebra Cake by BellaI love making cakes that are a bit different but with cakes I always seem to revert back to my old favourites. I will always experiment with cupcakes, but cakes? No. Don't ask why, I think I just like the traditional choices and flavours such a Lemon Drizzle or Victoria Sponge (although I am a sucker for anything with jam!) One… |

Banocolate Pie Treats by Hungry JennyThese are a little fiddly to make but are cute little treats to dish out for a dinner party. The pie base is made out of almonds and dates, so is a healthier kind of fat to your usual biscuit and butter base. But you must keep these chilled under just ready to serve as the base melts quite quickly ;-)… |

Victoria Sponge by Gina GeremiaI decided to make the cake how I would want it, by using a blend of fresh raspberries and strawberries mixed together with a blend of raspberry and strawberry jam and topped with a stabilized whipped cream, rather than just strawberry jam and a buttercream frosting. The result? To die for! Word on the street was that it was the best… |

Vanilla Fudge by Lorenda BeumontThis is a smooth, creamy fudge that makes a good base if you want to experiment with flavourings. It is less temperamental than those made with cream. Before, I used to make fudge using condensed milk, but now I only make this recipe. |

Mini Mango Tarts by Hungry JennyWhen I made these, they deflated a little whilst cooling, then the tops cracked a bit after chilling in the fridge! I'm not sure what cooling tactics I was meant to use there (any advice welcome!) but they taste good, which is the important thing! http://hungryjenny.blogspot.com/2010/05/friday-pie-day-mini-mango-tarts.html |
