Festive inspiration

December, 2009

Yeah! It’s December!

Christmas always inspires me to bake up a storm and this year is no acception.  So don your apron, get out your mixing bowls and let’s get baking. Beautifully presented food gifts are what we are giving loved ones and colleagues this year. Hand made, tied with a pretty ribbon, accompanied with a handwritten message and given from the heart. Can you think of a more special way to say Merry Christmas? Home-made gifts are also a lot of fun to prepare, especially with kids, they are cost effective and show that you have put a lot of thought, time and love into your gift.

Delight and impress those shameless chocoholics in your life with cherry chocolate salami rolls. Quite a mouth-full to say but simply irresistible. These chocolate logs are the perfect Christmas gifts as they can be served as dessert to unexpected guests, as an after dinner treat or a teatime indulgence. Simply accompany these lovelies with a note to store in the fridge, cut into generous slices on serving and enjoy with good quality coffee. It’s the gift that keeps on giving.
