Snacks

Kick off a gathering with these fun Spanish-inspired canapés - made using just five ingredients!

A suitably monstrous-looking treat for Halloween – and far healthier than the usual bucketloads of sweets and chocolate

If you’re after a Halloween bake that not only looks the part but also tastes great, these almost-black chocolate cupcakes are the perfect solution – and you’ll be the talk of the street with the trick-or-treaters!

Apple crumble with your cuppa? These crumble-crusted cookies are the perfect solution! Toss in a few blackberries if you like, or swap in some pear.

Replacing the golden syrup in these caramels with a reduced cider syrup infuses each buttery bite with a subtle fruity tang.

Pep up a packet of store-bought croissants with all the best bits of a sticky baklava.

The loaf is really easy to adapt with other flavours, use up any leftover cheeses for the filling or, for an Italian take, add in some pesto and chopped sundried tomatoes you might have lurking in your fridge. A dollop of harissa in the garlic butter would add a lovely kick if you fancy a bit of spice. Enjoy!

Smart enough to grace the counter of any posh bakery, it’s hard to believe these cruffins are made with a pack of croissant dough.

These are super easy and quick to make – perfect for children with limited attention spans.
