15 neat little parcels later ...

I love baking and I have descovered that I love making pretty little parcels.  I started last Wednesday, with this birthday present for a friend and it spiraled out of control.  Since then I have made three lots of chocolate brownie and four batches of scones (a mixture of sultanas and cranberries), which resulted in 15 neat little parcels for family and friends.  I can see this becoming an obsession, I've already been thinking about making pretty gift tags and tiny bouquets of flowers (perhaps lavendar) to pretty them up even more.  Now I just need to see if they travel in the post well.  Guinea pigs anyone?  I already have a few of you in mind.


...I also have to work out how to photograph the cellophane without the light reflecting so badly!

  2. How about cooking with flowers as well?!

  3. I did have a polarising filter on the lens, maybe I should have a little play about! Hmm, cooking with flowers. Now that is an avenue to explore!
