Fairy Glitter Truffles
I suddenly had a thought that my lovely edible glitter would make a stunning coating for chocolate truffles – the kind of truffles that fairies might like to eat – and the kind to give …
Strawberries and Cream Cupcakes
Apparently this week is National Cupcake week – a slightly tenuous reason for a celebration if you ask me, but then again the cake tin was looking all empty and lonely, and any excuse to bake…
Double Chocolate Chip Muffins
It’s Sunday which means getting ready for the busy, early part of the week whilst still enjoying what remains of the weekend.
Cherry Berry Compote
The remaining punnet of lovely local strawberries was starting to look a bit sorry in the fridge, and there was a big handful of very very ripe cherries.

Puddings/desserts can be quite tricky if you avoid dairy and eggs – most puds you come across are intrinsically full of the ingredients you want to avoid, particularly any ‘wow, I reall…

Birthday Fairy Cakes for School
All children seem to take cakes into school on their birthday, it adds to the excitement of the day and lets the whole class join in the celebration – my girls (due to a restricted diet) hard…
Penguin Themed Birthday Cake
So here it is, the birthday cake for Little S’s birthday party – the theme was penguins.

Chocolate Chip Shortbread

Blueberry Streusel Muffins
Yesterday was a REALLY stressful day at work and I didn’t even have time for any lunch – I can tell you, I was a big mess by the end of the day! So, on the way home, in order to satisfy…
Golden Syrup Cake
This is a lucysfriendlyfoods version of a classic Tate and Lyle’s golden syrup cake – sweet, squidgy and syrupy all at the same time.
