Vegan Elderflower Cupcakes

These are a lovely summer vegan cupcake – Elderflower is a perfect summer flavour. The Elderflower syrup gives these Vegan Elderflower Cupcakes a lovely golden colour and they are sweet enough to eat without icing. You can get Elderflower syrup from large supermarkets.

For these vegan cupcakes I’ve gone full flower decorating; it’s actually easier than you think with the right nozzles.  You just need to practice a bit, make sure the buttercream is thick, and do a quick jerk of the wrist to finish each flower (Youtube is your friend). Instead of multiple colours of icing, I made the orange icing, then just adding some red dye into the piping bag to get two colours. More professional people use two different icings! The nozzle sets usually come with the leaf nozzle as well.  You have to have a stiff buttercream; here is the link to our selection of icings.

Free From: Dairy, Egg, Nuts

Preheat Oven to 180°C , 350°F

Easy Bean Salad

Easy Bean Salad

We love Bean Salad, its just a nice change from a green salad. Packed with protein and simple to do – a lot of opening of tins involved! A simple salad that’s great with a BBQ   If you’ve got a BBQ going and want something nice on it – do try these Duck Skewers.

Duck Skewers

BBQ Duck Skewers

The weather is fine, the BBQ is out and it’s time to pop something other than a sausage on the BBQ.  Skewers are always popular – I like to cut the meat into strips rather than chunks as it cooks more evenly. Duck is amazing on a BBQ – full of flavour and quick to […]

Coconut Chicken

Coconut Chicken and Pineapple

This is a lovely meal on the BBQ or under the grill. Cooking time is pretty short, about 15 minutes but you do need to marinate them for at least 3 hours, or even prepare them the night before.  Pineapple is a good fruit for these, as it’s solid enough to take the heat from […]
