Been nearly a month since my last blog so a quick update on where that month has gone…!
Great Ormond Street
Netflix & Choc
Happy Easter! Hope you’ve had a great one. We’ve got a house full of chocolate now – good job I’m burning it off at the moment. I’ve also devised a competition for my readers on this week’s blog so read-on…
Happy 95th Birthday, Joe!
It was my wife Sarah’s Grandad’s 95th birthday this week so we’ve had a fantastic time celebrating with all the family. A good excuse to let my creative juices flow making this week’s cake. Tips on how to replicate it on this week’s blog.
2018 – I’m Ready For You!
After a fantastic Christmas and New Year I’m ready for what 2018 has in store. Happy New Year!
Snow Day!
An unexpected and rare snow day in London today so the kids and I had the chance to build their first ever snowman. After four years of them singing along to ‘Frozen’, it was about time! It’s been another festive week for us.
Building Skills
It’s three years ago today that my Great British Bake Off Final aired to an audience of 14 million viewers. I don’t think I’ll ever get my head around that. A good time to reflect on what’s changed since then. Such a lot of exciting opportunities and this week, my new building column launched too.
Simple Things
No blog from me last week as I was taking it easy after the London Zoo Stampede. Working my socks off at the moment so trying to make the most of the downtime when I can get it. Looking for an extra pair of hands too if you know someone who’ll fit the bill…
That’s Amore!
Back today from the most incredible fortnight in Italy. Just in time for the new series of Bake Off too.
Have Your Cake And Eat It
I love London Marathon day – massive congratulations to all my mates who ran today. It’s 12 years since I ran the London Marathon myself so today it’s time to put my money where my mouth is. Thankfully there’s a good few bakers up for it next year too.
Wild Week
It’s no exaggeration to say that I had one of the best days of my life this week. Still pinching myself just thinking about it. And of course there was also cake this week (there’s always cake).
