Baking photos

So gosh, I haven’t done this for a while. To be fair though, all I’ve been doing is uni work for the last six weeks and that’s not so interesting until the finished piece. Well, I finally took advantage of my break and did some stuff, like stepping outside the house for once. I also did some baking which I will now share with you (in a virtual, figurative way) because they are delicious and I am quite proud of myself. PHOTOS TIME INITIATE!

First off; a couple of pizzas, which are always fun to make. The base turned out really well this time; I’ve finally got the perfect recipe to get it nicely crunchy without turning it into a biscuit. They’re not the prettiest things but I made them with love. Well, I made them. Shouted at them a bit until they got in line. 

The first one’s a fairly traditional tomato-and-basil affair with some home-grown cherry tomatoes. Then, because I have to make everything Asian, I made a satay pizza using a peanut sauce and coriander pesto as the sauce. According to my mother it was ‘restaurant quality’ so I must have done something right.

Then for dessert I baked a sticky toffee pudding which I was a little apprehensive about, not only because the recipe called for the distractingly named Camp Coffee, which I later realised was coffee essence. But it turned out beautifully and went very nicely with my butterscotch sauce :D

On top of that (who’s going to eat all of this?) I tried out a recipe I’ve been devising for a while, which I’ve named Pancakes Cupcake (I’m not good at names). The reason for this is that the main flavours are banana, bacon and maple syrup. 

That’s maple whipped cream on top. And yes, it is like eating an orgasm. Or maybe just brunch, it’s like that too.

I also painted my nails prettily. And then all the rhinestones came off and made me sad.

In other news, I've had a cold since the Friday before last and it's getting on my tits.
