Yummy spices warmed us up today since we're flooding over here! Carrot cake is one of my favourites! Either frosting is delicious. My other kids prefer a plain icing sugar glaze where Jack and I enjoy the tang of a cream cheese frosting more

This was originally my apple cake recipe but I had pears to use before they got over ripe and so I added those instead. They were just as nice, I added a little less cinnamon than I would if I'd used apples so as not to overpower their more delicate flavour. I've included the apple recipe as the last 'direction step'

My good friend Tinklee posted a delicious fruit cocktail pudding recipe that we've enjoyed a lot. This is my cupcake version of that, altered a wee bit so the kids can take them to school in their packed lunch boxes!

Using fruit or veg puree is an old trick to make egg-free and low fat bakes. Red Velvet is a great example! Enjoy!

A slight change from the usual lemon & poppy seed cake, this tastes exactly the same but with the added benefits from chia seeds instead. Frost with buttercream or a powdered sugar glaze

In honour of St Patricks Day I dug out my Guinness cake recipe to make these cute cupcakes. If you don't fancy the stout (which gives a great depth to make a coffee / chocolate taste) you can use strong brewed black coffee instead
