Summer Issue of Playground Magazine

The new issue of Playground magazine is out now and features another original recipe from the Bake and Crafthouse, Marmalade Chocolate Torte. This twist on a classic chocolate torte adds a delicious orange flavour and slightly bitter edge, perfect with vanilla ice cream on a summer’s day!

I am just waiting for copies of the magazine to arrive at the shop so until then you can take a look online:

Penhurst Market Tomorrow

Just finishing packaging up my biscuits for the market at Penshurst tomorrow. The weather forecast is terrible but I have baked lots of lovely deserts so hopefully it won't put people off!

Half Term Holiday Timetable

The timetable for half term holiday in June is now online here.  Lots of great activities planned and exciting Jubilee workshops.

A New Fabric Bag

I have just finished a trial of the new shopper for a children's workshop in half term so I thought I would share the results.

I got this pretty cotton fabric in Japan last year and I have been meaning to use it ever since so I'm glad to have finally got around to it!

Sissinghurst Farmers Market

From next Friday, April 27th, Bake and Crafthouse will be selling at Sissinghurst Farmers Market in the grounds of Sissinghurst Castle, owned by the National Trust.

I will be making a delicious selection of biscuits, tarts and meringues so come and see me there if you can!

Spring Clean and Stool Makeover

No classes today so I have spent the day cleaning after a busy Easter season and given all the Bake and Crafthouse stools a colourful spring re-vamp ready for the new term!

Penshurst Market - April

I have had a really busy few weeks over Easter so unfortunatley no time to blog but I just wanted to share a photo from the farmers market at Penshurst Place which took place on Easter Saturday. I make desserts for this market and I was quite proud of my little table this time!

My husband helped out in the kitchen on Good Friday so he deserves a mention too, it was great to have a helping hand with all the whisking!
