Last Summer Master Frugal bought me a beautiful set of mini cups and saucers from the car boot sale. He saw that I liked the set and then talked his Dad into taking him back (pretending to go to the toilet) to buy them with his own pocket money. They were beautiful but I had no clue what to do with them really so they've just been gathering dust - until today!I decided to attempt to make some cakes in them using the slow cooker and seeing as they actually turned out really well, I thought I'd share my success with you. ;-)I used my recipe for Baileys Cupcakes as I'm planning on … [Read more...]
Apple and Banana Cake….
I have no idea why I've never tried making apple and banana cake before!I have them both in my fruit basket on a daily basis but I've never thought of putting them together until today.

Christmas Cupcakes – Snowball cupcakes with Advocaat frosting….
It's weird how a certain food or drink can remind you so much of someone isn't it?Every year, we used to go to my Nana's house to decorate her Christmas tree for us and every year (from when I was about 11) she used to reward me with a snowball - obviously weaker when I was younger but by the time I got to 18 they were were lethal and I always had to pop out to the kitchen to top up with extra lemonade.Now every time I see snowballs in the shops or I taste one, it makes me think of my lovely Nana and every year at this time, I buy a nice bottle of advocaat and have a drink to her. … [Read more...]

Malteser Cupcakes….
A couple of years ago, I used to have a regular Sunday post called Cupcake Sunday where I would bake a different type of cupcake every week and share it with you (if it worked)!But then somewhere along the line, I stopped doing it and around the same time, I kind of forgot just how much I love baking. Don't get me wrong, I still bake but it's more run of the mill things like packed lunch cake for the kids or special occasion Birthday cakes. It's the baking just for the fun of it that I miss so today, I thought I'd start again.I only went in the kitchen to sneak the Maltesers out of the … [Read more...]
