get REAL Martha


Some people get their thrill from jumping off bridges with only a rope & a lot of faith between them and mother earth. Others go to motor shows to gawk at new marvels of engineering & nature. I'm sure the rush I got when I saw these Hummingbird cupcakes from Get Real Martha is the exact same thing. Dried pineapple flowers? Come-on... I can even smell it, sitting here across the globe! Think it sounds a little obsessed? Just go and have a look (http://getrealmartha.blogspot.com/2010/04/hummingbird-cupcakes-with-pineapple.html )

- & thèn decide how you are going to get your kick this weekend

Spring = picnic

With Spring in the air we’ve got two things on our minds: picnic & le grande piquenique

South-Africa has got it all for the feast: gorgeous weather, quilts by Granny, beautiful, beautiful scenery, juicy summer fruits & hopefully good friends for everyone....

The only thing I would love to include are these eye-catching wooden utensils from V&A Museum Shop in London. Biodegradable, stylish & elegant- what more can you ask for in picnic tools?

Bringing a little elegance to the party, I could just picture the husband with a piece of ripe watermelon dripping from one of those well-designed handles

Hope to find them here soon

Or go to London soon

& have a picnic vèry soon......

Chocolate Eclairs


I tried my hand at chocolate eclairs this weekend, must say the kids looooved it and it was not all that difficult to make.


Some tips:
  • Don't use a wooden spoon, i used a whisk and found it much easier to "juggle" the mixture, 1 egg at a time and the whisk - and it helped in preventing lumps.

  • sprinkle a little water on your wax paper and on the dough just before putting it in oven - the water will create steam and the steam will assist with the 'puffiness" of the eclairs.

There is a great sense of festivity in the air as all our Muslim friends are preparing for Eid. The three-day celebration of Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan, starts as soon as there is the sighting of the moon. Many Muslim families take part in great feasts to break the month of fasting. Gifts are given to children, and for many, it is a time filled with great joy and happiness. May it be a very blessed time for you too

STOCKISTS

BAKING TIPS

· Use icing sugar instead of flour when rolling out biscuits.

· To prevent cake from sticking, place the cake that has come out of the oven on a damp cloth for a couple of minutes.

· Add a pinch of baking soda to icing to prevent hardening and cracking.

· To avoid dried fruit or nuts from sinking to the bottom of a batter, coat them lightly with flour first.

· Add a few drops of lemon juice when creaming butter and sugar to make the job easier.

· Cool baked goods completely before freezing or they will end up soggy.

· 1Tbs dried yeast is equivalent to 25g fresh yeast

· To turn plain flour into self –raising flour sieve 2tsp of baking powder into 225g plain flour

· To make self-raising whole-wheat flour add 10ml of baking powder to every 250ml whole-wheat flour

· To make your own baking powder, sieve 10ml cream of tartar into 5ml baking soda

· Always chill pastry dough before rolling and cutting, as it relaxes the gluten.

· For feather light muffins stir only until the ingredients are moist. Extra stirring will make them tough.

· Bake for the minimum time given in the recipe before opening the oven door. If the door is opened too soon, it may cause some cakes to flop.

· If a cake looks as though it is browning too quickly, cover the top loosely with foil.

· If baking several cake layers, arrange them on the oven shelves so that they are not directly beneath one another.

· When measuring with a spoon, don’t hold the spoon directly over the bowl or you may accidentally add too much.

· All spoon measurements are level unless otherwise stated.
