Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C/Fan 160°, 350°F, Gas 4.

Step 2

For the flapjacks, combine the butter, Tate & Lyle Light Soft Brown Sugar and Lyle’s Golden Syrup in a large non-stick saucepan and heat gently until melted. Remove from the heat and stir in the oats and salt.

Step 3

Spoon the mixture into the tin, level and press firmly with a palette knife to smooth. Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden.

TOP TIP

You will also need a 20cm (8”) shallow square loose-bottomed tin, greased and lined with parchment paper.

Step 4

Remove, leave to cool in the tin for 10 minutes then turn out, discard the parchment and cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 5

Make the topping by combining the cream and Tate & Lyle Light Soft Brown Sugar in a saucepan over a low heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil and boil for 5-6 minutes stirring constantly until it is smooth and slightly thickened. Remove, cool a little then stir in the butter, followed by the chocolate and stir until melted. Leave to cool until thick enough to spread over the top of the flapjack. Scatter over the dried fruits, nuts and seeds whilst still warm. Cut into squares when completely cold.

Up close and personal with a custard slice...

We could just fancy being tucked in under that crispy puff pastry sheet! 
When's the last time you had one of these? 

Recipe coming next week...
We knew it was going to be a showstopper, but this might be bordering on an eye-popper!

A picture-perfect cake tower, this delicate and airy sponge is bursting with summer's juiciest berries and scattered with crystallized rose petals...

In other words, it's a big shindig-only bake, so don't go hiding it away! It deserves to be seen! Recipe in bio.
Wow @georgiahearn__ knows what people like... chocolate and pudding! 

Made with @tateandlylesugars and @lylesgoldensyrup, this looks like a little bowl of happiness to us.
We know you're already sweet enough, but a bit of Tate & Lyle Sweetener wouldn't go amiss on #NationalTeaDay! 

300 servings in one easily storable dispenser, it's an aspartame-free, low-calorie treat. 

Which manages to taste just as sweet!
A whole day dedicated to one TEA!

Yes it's here, National Tea Day and the ideal time to share one of our favourite shortbread recipes using fragrant Earl Grey tea. 

Here's how to make Earl Grey & Lemon Shortbread:

Prep Time – 30 mins (4 hours to chill)
Yield – 12 – 16 (dependant on the size of your cutters)

Ingredients 

Biscuits
50g Tate & Lyle Fair Trade – Pure Cane Icing sugar
250g unsalted butter
2 tbsp of Earl Grey Tea
220g plain flour
Pinch of salt

Icing
A squeeze of lemon
100g Tate & Lyle Fair Trade – Pure Cane Icing sugar

Instructions

Combine your tea leaves and butter, leaving overnight preferably to infuse. You can cover in a bowl and leave to the side as this mix shouldn’t be chilled.
Add your butter mix to a bowl your sugar and combine, then add the flour salt until a dough forms
Roll out your dough mix until even – about half an inch thick and cut with your biscuit cutter.
Pop onto a baking sheet and into a preheated oven at 180°C/ 160°C fan/ gas mark 4/ 350°F and bake for 15 mins. Keep and eye on them as they can burn quickly.
Whilst they cool make your icing and then drizzle generously once the biscuits are completely cold.
If Dark Muscovado's a little too strong for you, this bag might just be your baking's saviour!

A subtle change that always makes bakes better...

Just squeeze a bit of lemon juice in your standard whole or semi-skimmed if you're ever in need.
