Having a bit of extra time on my hands lately, there's nothing more i enjoy then baking a nice cake and watching other people eat them all in minutes, hence why i only have 2 cakes in my photo, they don't last very long in my household. Thats got to a be a good thing right?

I have to admit they are rather delicious, getting the measurement of the ingredients right is essential in any cake making, something i usually struggle with, don't worry your not alone. You have to get cake baking down to an art for it to be good, practice makes perfect :)
These are my Scales i use for all my baking and cooking in the kitchen, you can get these from most household stores, my one is from Wilkinson, they do a great selection of kitchen essentials and baking equipment.
They have a huge range of different colours, if your not a big lover of pink.
Before i started, i took a quick trip to sainsburys just to grab some ingredients i would need, spending quite a bit of time down the baking isle as you can imagine, i came across these.
How Cute are these? can just see them neatly placed on some tasty iced cup cakes at only a £1 each i couldn't resist.
Browsing through some of my cake books, i have quite few just gifts over the years I'm rather spoilt for choice most of the time. But i fancied baking something nice and simple, certainly something all you can follow very easily.
