The Great Easter Bake-off

Easter baking. We have lots of visitors over Easter and it always good to have some treats on hand and a shared lunch with friends.

The traditional offering of the hot cross buns

Warm and buttered, a treat that I look forward to every year.

Chocolate Choc chip cookies for the quick cuppa

Chocolate layer cake with a chocolate noodle nest  and  handmade tinted and spotted eggs as a cake topper. For some reason I seem to always be allocated dessert at the shared brunch.

And for those who have had enough of the buns and chocolates, Apple slice with my homemade apple semifreddo / ice cream.
