So, as my memory is not what it used to be and even then it wasn’t all that good, I thought I would make a note of those things I would like to try and haven’t had the time to get round to yet. It is also a good place for you to challenge me to make something, not necessarily something of high technical difficulty, but maybe it is one of your favourites and would like to see it lovingly re-created.
Here is the list, please do keep adding to it with your suggestions.
- Victoria sponge
- Fruit cake – light and not heavy
- Egg tart
- Bath buns
- Proper Swedish cinnamon buns
- Sachertorte
- Churros
- Hot cross buns
- Battenburg
- Classic Swedish Princess cake
- Eccles cakes
- Baked Alaska
- Mille-feuille
- Brandy snaps
