    I made a Black Forestesque gateau last week. Fatless sponge (counteracted by the large pot of double cream i used to fill/cover it) and soaked it in a brandy syrup. Had a rum baba taste to it but still nice.

    I made lemon drizzle cupcakes yesterday. Nothing fancy but they went down a treat. The mixture was very runny though so scooping them into the cases took a while.

    I made gingerbread... things. The people are a bit wonky, I didn't have a person cutter shape so I had to do them by hand, and my decorating skills are as good as a 3 year olds, but they're tasty!

    Also made some cheesy muffin type things but they were disgusting, gonna stick to good old cheese scones in the future

    I made chocolate cupcakes, some with peanut butter cream frosting and some with orange butter cream frosting :D Oh and I made some dark chocolate truffles to put on the top (yes, I know they look like nipples but they're tasty :p )

    It was hard to make the frosting look nice because my dogs ate my piping bag :grump:

    Has anyone been watching GBBO. I want to make Angel's Food Cake. Without the salt, of course.

    I've moved into a new house and all the temperature numbers have rubbed off the oven. I don't know how I'm going to bake now!

    Have you got a ring tin ? You can make them in an ordinary tin, but the outside tends to burn before the inside is cooked.
