Lemon, Almond & Rosewater Torte & This Weeks Bake!

Apologies...probably again...late writing this post but a good excuse, or certainly I think so.

I have been busy setting up a new blog for the Harrison's Cake Time Party and I am so proud of it!

It's got lots of pages for news, events, recipes, how to have a party and lots of clocks ticking in the background because that is what the Cake Time Party is all about, raising money to fund research which will make time for children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy to have a future beyond their late teens.  This really matters to me because it is my grandson Harrison who has Duchenne and Harrison's Fund is trying to give Harrison and boys like him that chance.

Please do take a look at Cake Time Party and I hope you'll find a time to invite friends have a laugh together, eat delicious cake and raise funds for Harrison's Fund

This week's bake off recipe:  Banoffee Cupcakes

This was chosen because it is National Cupcake Week and I've bought a delicious jar of Caramel Sauce and I wanted a reason to use it! 

They do sound good in the recipe so I'm looking forward to making these, also it will give me a chance to practise my piping skills which are non exisistent at present and as I intend to do a cake sale in a couple of weeks I need to improve.  I still haven't worked out what size nozzle I should use? Any tips gratefully received.  If you don't like piping please do just spread the icing on with a palette knife, it will work beautifully too.

Lemon, Almond & Rosewater Torte

Again a delicious cake, the recipes in the Cake Time Recipe Book do seem to be pretty fool proof and I have been trying out a few bakes beyond the ones in the challenge as well.
