Nibbles in Norfolk

Its has recently been team meeting time again for our lovely consultants.  Around the country our teams of pasionate and friendly foodies have been gathering to swop business tips and of course share a tasty nibble or two.  This month we have showcased a recipe from Terri Rhind (our team leader in Wiltshire) with Juliette Kidd and her team in Norfolk.

Jumping Jack & Potato Bread Puddings may sound a little unusual but I can assure you they had us all coming back for more at our recent recipe testing session. They feature one of our best selling yummy products Jumping Jack Chilli Jam and the individual savoury bread puddings make a great addition to lunch boxes (they freeze brilliantly too). The recipe also uses our extremely versatile Beer Bread Mixes and with wintery chills in the air and the darker nights, a little homely and wholesome bread baking is just what the oven ordered. You can find the full recipe here and no doubt you can come up with your own ingenious twists on this recipe. 
Happy baking!

Coffee Monster

Its no secret that I am the coffee equivalent of the cookie monster when it comes to my morning brew. Don't even think about talking to me until the kettle is on and I do not share. Yes I also take my own coffee pot and coffee wherever I go.

As a cooking flavour, coffee is more of an acquired taste. Enter My Secret Kitchen Mochaccino Cookie Mix. It is a brilliant cookie mix bringing coffee together with chunks of white and dark chocolate.  It was developed orignially as a biscotti mix (and you can still make fabulous biscotti with it - find the recipe and here) but in a simpler fashion it also makes fabulous soft bake cookies - amazing warm and gooey straight from the oven as well as chunky scones and to-die-for mini pecan pie coffee cookies
 
So I thought I would try to create a coffee cup cake with one of our most versatile products.  The results - the Caramel Latte Cup Cake.

Its a coffee and chocolate cup cake, doused in coffee liqueur and topped with maple caramel buttercream, sprinkled with cocoa and a coffee bean.  You can find the full recipe here and try your hand at any of the gorgeous recipes using our Mochaccino Cookie Mix.

Enjoy!
