Oops, time has passed in blog land again! I have Easter egg misadventures to share although the moment may have passed! ;o) I haven't been doing anything too exciting in the kitchen of late but time is a bit more on my side now the show is over and I couldn't ignore the urge to bake anymore! So, I made some chocolate cakes and had a play about icing and decorating them. ;o) I used my newest silicone baking cases, groovy red ones. I keep meaning to do a tad of research to see if reusable silicone really is a better option ethically than paper baking cases. I tend to compost paper cases after use anyway. I saw a post on a blog somewhere recently where the blogger had made her own cases from scrapbook paper although I think they were added after baking! Last month I was in swap on Swap-Bot for spring themed foodie goodies and the lovely generous lady who sent to me included a pack of lilac coloured paper cases with the words "think spring" on them accompanied by some little picks to stick in the cakes with rabbits and chicks on! A little cutesy for me but they'll be great to use on cakes for an occasion or as a gift. ;o) Presentation is all with home made gifts, something I want to explore much more this year and especially at Christmas.
