Recipe | Carrot & Ginger Traybake

 
carrot cake is a personal favourite of mine, with a cup of tea in hand and a good friend to catch up with. I got bored of making carrot cake in the round, so went for a simple traybake instead and whipped up a vanilla infused cream cheese icing to…

milk & honey go hand-in-hand with one another and make for the best type of Easter biscuit there is. Open your spice cupboard and pull out cinnamon, ginger, allspice, mixed spice, cloves, nutmeg…the list goes on. The flavours of Easter with some mixed peel and sultanas makes a chilly…
