Step 1

Step 1

Pre-heat your oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7.

Step 2

Line your muffin tin with cases and set aside.

Step 3

While your oven heats dice your fresh rhubarb into cubes and add to a bowl with your Tate & Lyle caster sugar and mix thoroughly with a spoon. Set aside while you prepare the muffin mix to allow the rhubarb and sugar to start macerating ahead of adding to the mix.

Step 2

Step 1

In a new bowl, add your dry ingredients, sieved plain flour, baking powder, and bicarbonate of soda, stirring through ahead of adding your wet ingredients.

Step 2

Add your egg, oil, and vanilla extract to the rhubarb and sugar mix, combining thoroughly ahead of adding to your dry flour mix.

Step 3

Mix the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and combine thoroughly, adding your milk at the end to loosen the mix.

Step 3

Step 1

Spoon your mixture into your muffin cases, filling each one halfway full. Sprinkle with Tate & Lyle Light Muscovado over the tops for a caramel crunch finish on top.

Step 2

Pop your muffin tray(s) in the oven for 18-20 mins, a skewer should come out clean to check they’re done. Put on a wire rack to cool before tearing in to enjoy the soft, light sponge with pink jewels of sweet and tangy rhubarb.

Beautiful, quick desserts that look great without any baking required... (Recipe links in bio.)
Forget the cherry, there's much better things you can pop on top of a cake these days!

Things like these personalised fondant cupcake decorations - an ideal way to turn your baking gifts up a notch.

Just follow the steps from @elliebakess to make your own...

Step 1: Dust your surface in icing sugar, I used @tateandlylesugars as this icing sugar
ensures your fondant doesn’t stick to the surface or your hands! (It’s also great for use
in everyday baking such as in buttercream or glace icing)
Step 2: Take your fondant icing and add a few drops of food colouring. Mix this
together with your hands until you have achieved your desired colour - I like to mix
until I get a marble effect.
Step 3: Take an outbosser stamp of your choice and firmly press this onto the fondant
icing. A rolling pin helps with this too.
Step 4: Carefully peel the fondant icing away from the stamp and use a cookie cutter
to cut it out into your desired shape - circles always work well for cupcake toppers.
Step 5: Paint the raised text in any colour (You can use edible paint for this or mix
lustre dust and alcohol to create your own) Enjoy!

Passionate preservers where are you!?

As well as marmalades and jams, our Pure Cane Preserving Sugar is a gateway to delicious jars of peaches, plums, gooseberries and all-sorts!

What would you make with this bag of Tate & Lyle Pure Cane Preserving Sugar?
Never let buttercream get the best of you... 

Once you know the basics, this classic filling and decoration is easy to master, as proved by the brilliant @elliebakess!

500g Tate & Lyle Icing sugar
250g unsalted butter
1tsp Vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Splash of milk (if needed)

 Mix the butter on medium speed for 5-10 minutes! (This is the most important part) the butter should go from pale yellow in colour to pale white
Add in your icing sugar a few tablespoons at a time. Add this gradually until all is combined.
Add in your vanilla extract and pinch of salt
If your buttercream is too stiff add in a splash of milk (only a little as you will not need much!)

TOP TIPS:
 Make sure your butter is softened! You can do this in 10 second bursts in the microwave
Add splashes of milk if it’s too stiff
We had to spoil things for you. But it isn't the carrots that make it taste so good...

For stronger notes of caramel and a softer, sticky texture, you can always count on our Light Muscovado. 

Carrot Cake? It's in the bag!

We could have just popped some strawberries and cream in a bowl for Wimbledon... but that would have been too easy! 

So instead, we thought we'd introduce you all to Syllabub - an old favourite from the 16th century! Made by curdling sweet cream or milk with an acid such as wine or cider, it's like a sweet, sophisticated trifle.

Especially if you make it with Pimms like we have... 

Serves 4

Ingredients:

200 g strawberries 

100 ml Pimms

1 lemon

1 orange

For the Syllabub:

300 ml double cream

4 tbsps Tate & Lyle Fairtrade Cane Icing Sugar

Method:

1. Chop your strawberries into quarters and put into a large bowl, add the Pimms and juice of the lemon and orange to the bowl. Cover and chill preferably overnight at a minimum.
2 Take your strawberries and Pimms out of the fridge and spoon into trifle glasses.
3. Whisk your double and cream and icing sugar until it holds its shape but is still spoonable.
4. Top your trifle glasses with the cream mixture and pop some strawberries on top to garnish if you fancy. Best enjoyed on a summer afternoon with the match on the tv!
