I have to say I’m glad it wasn’t has hot in my kitchen as it has been all week, otherwise I may have found it a little harder to bake with compassion this afternoon! While Chris was busy watching the men’s Wimbledon final, I slaved away in the kitchen preparing my cakes to sell to colleagues in order to raise money for the Compassion in World Farming Bake With Compassion campaign (well I say slave but it was fun really!) and put my super duper mixer to the test creaming and beating and sounding like it was about to take off.
I settled on a cherry and ginger loaf (delicious recipe courtesy of Chris’ grandma) and some choc and cherry mini muffins. I had to try a sample of each to check they were OK, and I can confirm both are very tasty, even if I say so myself! Should sell like hot cakes to the office tomorrow.
