Mum's little ginger cakes with lemon icing

                                            

 Lucky for me,
I inherited the 

baking gene from 

my mum, 

and her 

from her mum.  

Both very talented in

making up, adapting

and changing recipes 

 to make something

 different and irresistibly

delicious.

Here is mum's luscious 

spicy ginger cakes with lemon icing recipe.

Enjoy!

Makes approx 18 cakes.

Chocolate extravaganza.

These heavenly delights are the creation of 

Littlesweet baking, a one woman show

whipping up a storm in her kitchen

south of the river, Perth.

These cookies have been affectionately named 

oFreos

and are a decadent and all natural 

take on the famed Oreo cookie. 

Megan was kind enough to share that she

 was inspired by the recipe found @

smittenkitchen

Lucky for Perthites,

Megan's rich chocolate & macadamia 

nut brownies and fresh baked friands

are available at

Blink cafe - Fremantle 

and 

Pony Express O - West Perth

(and hopefully her oFreos soon.)

Megan also makes mouth watering, made-to-order cakes.

I thought this would be perfect 

for a unique and well portioned

birthday cake.  

Fabulous........... 

as I know someone with such a 

BIG occasion!

...........and no need to tell you what we thought!

Cups and cakes

These sweet cupcakes are beautifully displayed in the front 

of the cake cabinet at my local
Fresh Provisions supermarket 

 and are a favourite 

in our house on special occasions.

The delicate cups they sit in,
hold a very special place in our family's hearts.

A prize in a Perth swim through,
dad won them as a strapping talented lad in his late teens.

As children we only ever drooled over them from 

behind glass and I remember only once 

 drinking from them - (a set of 6,yellow was always my favourite).

I feel I am fully grown up, given the trust to photograph them.

Sweet art.

These are the decadent delights from talented 

Perth Duo Kylie and Nigel from 

Kustom Cupcakes.  

They tour the local market scene,  and I picked

these delicious cupcakes up from 

Perth Upmarket 

before they sold out.

I love market events and getting to know the wonderful 

people behind the business. It makes the produce 

all the more enjoyable.  

And there is no question that Kylie & Nigel 

are as sweet as their cupcakes.

 I was excited to shoot their wares and feature them as my 

very first talented SWEET BAKERS.

I couldn't decide on my favourite photo so here 

are a few more to enjoy.

Kustom Cupakes

also have a shop at 

31/103 Francis Street 

Northbridge Perth

Tea cups and rainy days.

All the beautiful teacups I photograph with my cookies,  

are lovingly lent to me by my sisters & mum.  

They are the ones that make my cookies look good.
