  • Incoming this week...a recipe for my delicious light, autumnal, colourful, fruity Christmas cake recipe! I'm dehydrating some fruits and leaves for the decorations overnight using my @vonshef_uk dehydrator, a cheap and cheerful piece of kit that I swear by. #Christmascake #vegancake #plantbasedcake #plantbasedbaking #fruitcake #christmasbaking #lightfruitcake #veganbaking #veganchristmas
  • Are you a vegan baking virgin?! Think vegan baking is boring, difficult, or needs lots of kitchen kit? If so, please try these - they are easy to prepare, quick to bake, and I'd love you to tell me what you think, I promise you'll like them, big talk huh? These cookies are fudgey, chocolatey, delicious, and free from gluten, dairy, and other bits of animals that you do not need to make baking tasty. Here's the recipe, you are welcome. xxx Bee’s Dairy free (and vegan) avocado and choccie cookies Makes six large cookies or more smaller ones 1 ripe (must be ripe!) avocado (about 100g) 1 chia / flax egg (1tbsp ground seeds mixed with 3tbsp hot water) 1 tsp vanilla extract 140g soft brown (or muscovado if you’d like low GI) sugar 50g cocoa powder 50g self raising flour (gluten free is fine too, use 1/3 nut flour and 1tsp xanthan gum) 100g vegan dark chocolate chips (plus more for sprinkling) 1. Mash avocado until completely smooth 2. Mix avocado and chia / flax egg in a large bowl 3. Add everything else and mix until there are no big lumps 4. Dollop heaped tbsp sized lumps onto a parchment lined baking tray, leaving a couple cms in between each to allow a little spread 5. Bake at 170c for 8-10 mins (they will not go crunchy on the edges and will stay gooey in the middle) 6. Allow to cool 7. EAT! #veganbaking #whatveganseat #whatvegansbake #chocolaterecipe #chocolatecookie #avocadocookie #plantbasedcookie #plantbasedrecipe #chocolate #animalfree #freefromanimals #freefrom #dairyfree #glutenfree #GF #DF
  • Calling all breastfeeding mums and their baking friends! Here's the perfect gift for a new BF mum...chocolate chip cookies that happen to contain three major milk-stimulating ingredients...easy to make, inexpensive and they work...I've tried them! xxx (Ps check my stories for more chat on these) Bee’s breastmilk boosting cookies NB- the ingredients may stimulate breastmilk production, not in men(!) or in non-breastfeeding mums but they are meant for breastfeeding supermums, particularly with newborns. Ingredients: (This recipe uses cups - if you don’t have official baking cups, use a small mug or tea cup) 1/2 cup margarine 3/4 cup nut butter 1 tsp cinnamon 1 tsp vanilla extract or bean paste 3 -5 tsp powdered brewers yeast (I use tablets which I grind up before using, NB this is not the same as bread yeast) 1 cup of muscovado sugar 1 cup ground flax seeds 1/2 cup warm water 1 and 1/2 cups whole meal flour (GF works just fine- I use a mix of SR Doves Farm, chestnut and GF buckwheat flours) 1 and 1/2 cups whole oats (not processed porridge oats) 1 cup dairy free chocolate chips 1/2 cup ground nuts of your choice - I use almond 1/2 chopped nuts of your choice - I used almonds Method Mix the marg, nut butter, cinnamon, vanilla, yeast and sugar together until you have a creamy consistent mixture. Add in the flax, water and flour and mix until combined. Throw in everything else and mix until it starts coming together as a sticky dough, use a little more oats if needed. Line a baking tray with parchment and preheat your oven to 175 degrees C whilst you roll golf-ball (or larger!) sized pieces of dough and squish them down into pattie shapes. Leave a little space between each one, then bake for around 12-18 mins depending on their size. Allow to cool and gift to that amazing new mum in your life #breastfeeding #bf #lactationcookies #galactogenic #boobbiccies #newmum
  • My little football fiend finally slept through the night...yes, she’s nearly two, yes coping with that much sleep deprivation was extremely hard. Please please please let it continue... #mygirl #footballinyournightie #sleepdeprivation
  • I really loved making and decorating this cake, she’s an autumnal light fruit cake (lots of figs, dried berries and cherries) with a top tier of the grooms fave cheese. It can be tricky working with non edible flowers, as it’s not safe to stick them into the cake without a barrier, but I’m quite handy with cocktail sticks and florist wire these days 😉#weddingcake #beesbakery #fruitcake #londonwedding #acehotelwedding #leafycake #autumnalcake
  • Here’s a sneak peek of today’s luscious autumnal fruit cake - made for Sacha who’s having a fantastic city wedding party at the Ace Hotel, and her amazing crew who gave me such freedom to be creative, I loved every minute! #beesbakery #weddingcake #londonwedding #citywedding #autumnwedding #fruitcake #thistlecake #londonbakery
  • Here's a shot of my pretty cornflower ombre cake at the coolest Hackney wick spot - Stour Space. Looking at my favourite cake designs is really relaxing for me - funny huh! I am exhausted after solo parenting a baby who just will not sleep at night, and two weeks of family drama, I'm trying so hard to keep things positive and in perspective, but i think i need to go back to bed for an hour to just try to grab back some mental health. Is it Friday yet? #weddingcake #wedding #londonwedding #hackneywedding #cornflowercake #ombrecake #pinkcake #petalcake
  • I cut my royal icing piping teeth baking hamper cakes for Harrods and its been a little while since I've exercised this traditional baking muscle...but I so enjoyed it! A pillared cake is tricky, I won't lie, especially when the cake tiers are heavy and the table is on the wonk...it took me far longer to set up than usual, and i needed a mathematical friend to help me figure out the most stable tiering design BUT, I got there, and it looked super fancy for Alice and Kiran's wedding at Two Temple Place last weekend. #royalicing #traditionalweddingcake #weddingcake #pillarcake #fancycake #handpiping #royalicing #cakedecoration
