Want to know my 5 Secrets to Make a Perfect Sponge?

I adore baking but for me it's always better when it's simple to follow.

Lots of recipes out there are over complicated, in my humble opinion, and most of my tips stem from either baking with my Nan or learning the hard way when making wedding cakes.

Small changes can have big impacts and over recent years I’ve been making these changes to food for myself and my little family.

When I discovered that the UK government has decided to add folic acid into white bread flour (by December 2026) I decided to look closer look at the bread flour I have been using and I did some research.

There are lots of discussions on the web and a lot of hoo hah regarding this change and I can see both sides of the argument.

I’ve been proud that we have been eating home baked bread for years but I never stopped to look at what was actually in the flour, because it’s blinking flour, right?!

Anyway I have tried different bread flours over recent months and I have made the switch to using Nelstrops and boy is it good. The sourdough and bread rolls need a little more liquid with this flour but the results are superior.

Yes the bags are large but decanting some into a tub and then storing the rest in the cupboard saves me a fortune too.

If you are making bread at home I’d definitely take a look at their products, you won’t be disappointed.

For now , happy baking, Love Caroline ###

I never do a monthly recap but blinking heck what an awesome month it’s been and it’s the people that have made it that way…

The event I co-hosted with and .wellbeing kickstarted it. Working with them gave me a sense of purpose and a fire in my belly to make the most of life.

Serendipity occurred on a wet and windy mountain when I was hiking with and I met the amazing who unbeknownst to her has kickstarted me on a project that will fulfill a dream of creating a cookery book, a dream I have buried for an eternity, so all the recipe creation is on super charge and I’m loving it. The feedback has been amazing so thank you to all the taste testers 🥰

And a huge thank you to and for the confidence boost and allowing me to taste test new recipes on the participants.

How was your month? I’d love to know…

Oh and April I’m ready for you, love Caroline ###

Sourdough is so good for our Gut Health and yet it can be so expensive to buy.

It’s got a reputation for being complicated to make and I want to show you it can be made easily at home.

Sourdough doesn’t have to be complicated and it doesn’t need to take an eternity to make.

Come and bake with me on Zoom.

I post you a jar of my amazing Sourdough starter in advance of the class.

My classes are relaxed, informative and fun and you will be amazed at your own creation.

After the class you get a recipe pack and tutorial so you can make it again and again whenever you want to.

Do you stop and capture your days?

I did last week and looking back it was a good one, packed with new connections, learning, great food and loads of fresh air.

Thank you to for such a wonderful hiking experience in the Brecon Beacons
And to the wonderful ladies who I met and talked to the whole time 🙈🤣

And a huge thank you to and for the most wonderful training course. I learnt so much and came away invigorated to put things into action.

This week it’s more about baking and recipe creation so watch this space ###

Ok maybe it’s more than sometimes 🙈🤣

Last week I captured so many things that I was making and even I was surprised

One of the things I discovered was my sourdough pizza dough can be turned into a delicious version of naan bread. Nothing wasted and I know exactly what was in it.

Here’s to trying some new this week too ###
