Red Velvet cake

 There is something about red velvet, I don't know whether it's the moist sponge or the cream cheese frosting but I am addicted. This cake is perfect with a cuppa and a huge hit with my family. Simple to make and something different.

Cookie stuffed Cupcakes

 

So yesterday I started back to University after two weeks off. Getting up at 7 in the morning almost killed me, but it made me realise that soon I will no longer be at University and that it is time to get my act together. I have less than four month until I'm finished and I need to decide what I'm going to do. As much as I would love to come out of University, open a shop and be sorted for the rest of my life this isn't realistic as to open a shop you need money, and I don't have any of that. So I decided to start job hunting.

Rose meringue kisses

With Valentines day just around the corner I thought it was about time that I started making some of my Valentines recipes, giving you guys enough time to gather all your ingredients and bake your special someone some yummy treats.

Unfortunately this year I will be on my own for Valentines day, but I will be spending a lovely evening alone with my two favourite men, Ben & Jerry.

  I think that Valentines day isn't just about buying extravagant gifts but showing the person you love how much they mean to you and making something is such a good idea as it takes more time and effort than running to the shops. The rose meringue kisses are perfect for this, they look romantic and taste divine! A real sweet treat.
