“I love the mixes... the quality of the mixes is superb and I cant compare to others I have used in the past... Im glad I have found you LOL... The sponges are going down a treat... I have always struggled to get my carrot cake the right texture... but I have found my winner... . ”

Seasonally superb - a great way to use up dates and walnuts that we usually have hanging around during the festive period. Deb the Bread
