Well getting back in the swing of things is proving harder than I thought. There is so much to catch up on in the house such as all the holiday washing which I need to get through, the toy bag unpacking is still to be done and the last but most important thing is to buy what I need for my daughter’s birthday party which is happening on Friday. Not a lot of time left to buy the treats but I am hoping to have it all done in time. I am not sure what cake I am making for her yet but we will have to include strawberries somewhere as that is her favourite fruit. I am thinking of making the Icecream Sundae Cupcakes which are filled with cake and iced to resemble real icecream cones with the flake on top. I used to make these in my market days. These will be easy to eat and are a bit different too.

I will be making these pizzas again outside on a BBQ (weather permitting) but not today. Too much else to be doe today such as baking a large batch of brownies as I am going to make skewers of fruit, brownies and marshmallows for my daughter’s party tomorrow. I will have to make a double batch as my children will devour half of them before tomorrow comes. (I love that film –  hehehe). I am going to bake a batch of cookies as the whole family seem to be craving sweet things the last few days and I have nothing in the cupboards. Myself, I am craving savoury food, in particular, Savoury Rice , so I am going to make something in the [amazon_textlink asin=’B002NPC0RG’ text=’slow cooker’ template=’ProductLink’ store=’wwwlovetobake-21′ marketplace=’UK’ link_id=’d7018fa5-7dac-11e7-80fa-cb3fbb16984a’] which can be served as a salad at my daughter’s party.

For the Smores Cones, I don’t think there is any way to improve the cones as they worked really well. The filling did not take very long to melt and merge into a delightful sticky mess and when combined with the fruit the end result was perfect. I will be making these again at every opportunity that the weather in the UK allows. Also, I will take a better photograph of the cones than I did on holiday so that you get a better idea about what they look like.


Photos will follow later when I have made a few goodies. In the mean time, I am off to the kitchen to start some baking, before I head to the supermarket to buy some more ingredients. Then I am off outside to enjoy the sunshine while it lasts. 🙂 One last thing before I sign off I would like to say a big thank you to those people who have taken the time to read my books which are all recipe books “Baking at its best” range  available through Amazon. It would be great if you could leave a review for me. Thanks again x
