Allergy Friendly Valentine's Day Chocolate Box

Free From Valentine’s

With Valentine’s Day next Tuesday I’ve collected together some of my favourite valentines-y recipes, new and old, from my website into one Free From Valentines list. Val Like most other celebrations, festivities, dates in the calendar, Valentine’s Day isn’t the most allergy friendly. Chocolate that is suitable for little one isn’t the easiest to find. Our go-to brandContinue reading Free From Valentine’s

mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off: A Great British Send Off

So that’s it for the Great British Bake Off 2016 and for mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off. I’ve really enjoyed baking along each week as it’s definitely made me vary what I bake. It’s given me the opportunity to try some recipes that I’ve wanted to for a while, aquafaba meringues, for exampleContinue reading mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off: A Great British Send Off

mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off! Week 7 Desserts

Dessert week in the tent. They’re not something I make too many of, so was looking forward to the challenge. A roulade was this week’s signature, a marjolaine for technical and mini mousse cakes for the showstopper.  After the disaster of last week’s bake I decided to keep it simple. My go to mousse isContinue reading mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off! Week 7 Desserts

mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off: Week 6 Botanical

Another new theme for this year’s Great British Bake Off- Botanicals! It is also the week I have struggled most with!

mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off: Week 5 Pastry

It’s week 5 of the Great British Bake Off and I must admit the initial news of its move to Channel 4 and subsequent announcements of Mel, Sue and Mary’s resignations have taken the shine off of it slightly. However I am enjoying the #gbbomummybakesdairyfree challenge of creating allergy friendly versions and this week it’sContinue reading mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off: Week 5 Pastry

mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off: Week 4 Batter 

Batter week! Flour, milk and egg spring to mind when I think of batter recipes. Seeing as we are free from two of those ingredients this week’s recipes should be interesting! But that hasn’t deterred me! Nope, in fact this week I’m attempting two bakes. This may of course mean I’ll end up with twoContinue reading mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off: Week 4 Batter 

mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off: Week 2 Biscuits

Have you got a cuppa ready? Yes? Good because it’s biscuit week!! My bake this week is an old favourite of mine with a few tweaks. They’re not super healthy, yes they do contain sugar, however they are a pretty tasty treat! Plus they’re fairly rich so one is just enough… I made my dairyContinue reading mummybakesdairyfree does the Great British Bake Off: Week 2 Biscuits
