Kelly's Birthday Box

Chocolate and peanutbutter swirl cookies from Sally's Baking Addiction

Christmas cake truffles made by using some of my christmas cake mixed with some Kahlua then rolled into balls and frozen for 20 minutes then covered in melted chocolate and sprinkles ontop

Pineapple and Date relish from Good Food magazine 

Christmas Cupcakes

Candy can cupcakes from Cake Days by Hummingbird Bakery though with cherry syrup instead of peppermint essence (yuk!) and LOTS of red food colouring!

 

Gingerbread cupcakes from the LOLA cupcake book, much spicier than the Hummingbird recipe but very well received.  

Pancake Cake

 

Thick layers of sultana buttermilk pancakes with spiced apple butter in each layer with maple syrup sweetened mascarpone with lemon juice and chopped caramelised hazelnuts, yum!

Christmas Cake 2013 for the Whittaker's

 

 

 

This year I used crystallised ginger, figs, dates, sultanas and tropical fruit with allspice and I used spiced rum, I'm looking forward to trying it. 

S'mores Bars

I used ginger nuts and digestives instead of graham crackers and I used coco pops instead of coco pebbles (the English version) and added 3 heaped tablespoons of Nutella.

In the layers I used blueberry jam and mascarpone mixed with lime juice and maple syrup. I used blue colouring on the frosting which was just humming bird vanilla buttercream.
