Lemon, Thyme & Blood Orange Shortbread Biscuits
The feeling of spring is lingering in the air and the sun is peeking out of the clouds, so I thought it was time to bake a bit of sunshine too.
These are like little parcels of citrus sitting in a thyme shortbread. The shortbread has a little ground almond in it to keep the texture short all while holding its shape. The pretty pink icing on top brings memories of party rings from my childhood. These are such a treat and perfect with a cuppa.
Blood Orange Baby Cakes with Blood Orange Curd and Bay Leaf Buttercream
Blood oranges are in season so I’m obviously baking with them. This orange and almond sponge is one of my all-time favourites. Whole blood oranges are boiled and then pureed before being added into the cake batter. It makes for an incredibly moist and flavourful sponge. Plus its gluten free too!
