Hi Margot-Thanks so much! I love mocha flavoured things for when chocolate, divine as it is, might just be a bit too much!

Beautiful and how delicious… chocolate and coffee together! I was just thinking of making triple layer cake with those flavours.

Hi ingrid-Thankyou! It was surprisingly easy and I’ll probably make a different one next year I enjoyed it so much That’s very true adults can be so fussy, kids just see sugar and pounce! Happy 2009 to you too and may it bring lots of happiness and surprises

It came out so nice. Makes me think I can do it too!

I have a love /hate relationship with making anything to bring or to give anyone. Could be I always pick a “new” recipe to make instead of sticking with a tried and try one. That and I find grown ups are much more picky. Kids now they just eat it all up , no complaints!

Happy 2009!

Hi Lorraine! Hope you had a great day. Alas, we’re still a House of Disease. I am officially the fittest member of the household which I find hysterically funny considering what a state I’m in. As such, I’ve just done a run to the shops for tinned soup, bread and medicine.

What a fantastic Christmas, eh?

Oooh that looks pretty. Well done, and I hope you had a good Christmas! Sorry that it’s a day late, I’ve been running around packing as I’m heading back to London this Sunday…

Did you have a nice turkey dinner then? Hehe. x

Hi Barbara-Thankyou so much!

Hi snookydoodle-Thanks! My favourite bit was how easy it was

Hi Y-I think the coffee helped to cut through the sweetness somehow. The cake itself was beautifully light too!

Hi Angela-Merry Christmas to you, Dave and Lucas! I hope you’re feeling better? Haha yes it felt like I missed out on the foreplay of the food porn ritual

Hi grace-haha no need to do that! It’s easy to make and I guarantee it will make all ungrateful colleagues beg for some Merry Christmas to you!

Hi FFichiban-Thankyou! I’d like to agree with you but all around me would vehemently deny that I am coordinated

Hi anamika-Thankyou, I’m so glad that it may help! Thankyou for your Christmas wishes, I hope yours were filled with fun, food and festivities

Hi Johanna-Haha yes he was tired but he went out to forage for foresty bits Thankyou I did, I hope yours was a wonderful Christmas!
