Black Forest Gâteau


Here's the recipe: http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/blackforestgateaux_74843, it was quite faffy but I've wanted to make a homemade one for quite a while and it was much better than a shop bought gateaux.

Lemony Cupcakes

Perfect for a baby shower!
Filled with lemon curd and topped off with lemon-flavoured frosting. I used a basic sponge cake recipe for this (click here) but I also included the grated zest of a lemon and the juice of half a lemon.


Once cooled, I injected them with lemon curd.


For the frosting, I used the standard mix and added a couple of teaspoons of lemon juice along with some yellow food gel.
