Blue Velvet Cake for Eurovision

The Eurovision Song Contest was here again. And we didn’t win again!My friend Ewan always throws a party for the event and this year’s ‘do’ was a select gathering of us boom bang-a-banging, skirt ripping Europop fans.Personally I don’t know what the BBC have been thinking the past few years. Firstly we no longer get a chance to vote for the act we, the British public, would like to represent us. T

The Cakeyboi Alphabet - R

R is for Rock CakeRock cakes are a small fruit cake, popularised in Great Britain. They have less eggs and sugar so were promoted by the Ministry of Food during the Second World War, when these commodities were scarce. They were also bulked out by oatmeal at the time, which was easier to come by. They have quite a rough, jagged appearance, hence the name Rock Cake.

Clandestine Cake Club Dundee turns one too!

As well as Cakeyboi turning one this month, the Dundee branch of the Clandestine Cake Club turned one at the end of April.I wanted to feature the Clandestine Cake Club this month, as had it not been for the CCC, I would never have started my blog. A friend last year mentioned that the club was starting up in Dundee and as soon as I heard, I fired off an email to the organisers. Jac of Tinned Tomat

Cakeyboi Cupcakes AKA White Chocolate Coconut Cupcakes with Lemon Butter Frosting

Since I created Cakeyboi a year ago, I have often wondered what flavour he might be. So, with it being his first birthday I thought it was about time I set about making a Cakeyboi cupcake!I thought long and hard, asked friends what flavour he might be, what flavour his frosting might be. And I came up with white chocolate coconut cupcakes with a tangy lemon butter frosting.Quite a mouthful I know

The Cakeyboi Alphabet - Q

The alphabet has reached Q and I really did puzzle over this one, but then I remembered Cakeyboi's sweetheart - the Great British Bake Off judge - and so much more! - Mary Berry, the Queen of Cakes.I remember Mary on TV when I was a wee lad, she was always making delicious looking meals on some show I can't quite remember the name of. And I was thrilled last year when I got to see her in person at

Jam and Custard Hand Pies

What’s a hand pie? It’s basically what we in the UK call a turnover. It’s pastry, semi-circular in shape and can have a sweet or savoury filling. And you can hold it in your hand, unlike a messy slice of pie!  Of course I am going for a sweet filling, and I decided to use the delicious Single Farm conserves from Mackays, which I was given to try out the other week.The Single Farm conserv

Banana Strawberry Swirl Bread with Mermaid Cookware

I was lucky enough to be sent a hard anodised loaf tin from the kind people at Mermaid cookware. The 1lb tin is made of very strong aluminium, boasting that it is twice as strong as stainless steel.I had a bread idea which I knew would be a good test for the tin. A banana strawberry swirl bread. I have seen swirl breads about and they all seemed to differ quite wildly. But I wanted a yeast bread,

Speculoos Cake Doughnuts with Chocolate Glaze

What is Speculoos?Well, Speculoos seems to go by a few different names depending where you are in the world. Biscoff spread, Lotus Spread and Cookie Butter are other names it goes by. But basically it is a paste, similar in texture to peanut butter, which is made from those yu

Cherry Cola Marshmallows

I hadn’t made marshmallows in such a long time and I had bought the wonderful Shauna Sever book – Marshmallow Madness! Whilst having a flick through I saw a recipe for Kool-Aid Marshmallows and I had a sachet of Kool-Aid hanging about in my cupboard. It was cherry flavoured, and I had an idea of making cherry cola mallows. I was obsessed with Cherry Cola when it came out in the UK, in the 80’s. I
