This is really Part Two of the ice cream challenge! Before the weekend, I began by making a malted milk custard base for my very first ever home made ice-cream for Kavey’s Bloggers Scream for Ice Cream challenge! I’m only just in time as today is the last day to post entries, but I think [...]
I have to admit to being completely stumped this month when I saw the We Should Cocoa challenge set by Choclette over on her Chocolate Log Blog. The February challenge was to come up with something chocolate, savoury and vegetarian. Not many things came to mind. Until, at the very last minute, I spied a packet [...]
I’ve had something of an experimental morning in the kitchen, realising that I was running out of time to join in with a new blog event over at Kavey Eats called Bloggers Scream for Ice-Cream.

(Check out my new pink badge to the right, too!) It was a great privilege for me, as a newbie food blogger, to [...]
