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.

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.

It might sound odd... but anyone who`s had this slightly sour dairy knows it doesn`t taste like butter!
Just squeeze a bit of lemon juice in your standard whole or semi-skimmed if you`re ever in need.
You don`t have to be a baking extraordinaire to whip up these sweet, soft Biscoff Swirls, in fact, so long as you can turn an oven, they`re basically a doddle.
