Guess what?? I have a recipe published in a very special book!
'The Little Book of Treats', which is being sold in all M&S Cafés from NOW until the 3rd October, is a luxury edition of fabulous sweet recipes being sold in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support. It's only £4.00 and 100% of the proceeds go to charity.
M&S cafés are the official partner of Macmillan's World's Biggest Coffee Morning, and YOU can participate by popping along to you nearest M&S café on Friday 28th September. 50p will be donated from your coffee sale price to Macmillan Cancer Support, and they will also be making a contribution from the sale price of a range of treats, right up to Wednesday 3rd October.
And, of course, you can buy the book!
Silver Spoon have worked with Macmillan to produce The Little Book of Treats
All the recipe contributors - I am just above Dermot O'Leary (YES! The one and only time I'll ever be on top of Dermy!)
In the book you will find recipes from Stephen Fry, Amanda Holden, Fearne Cotton, Eric Lanlard, Kimberley Walsh, Janet Jackson, Sir Ian McKellen and.... ME!! There are loads of other contributors and the recipes include raspberry shortcake hearts, party time chocolate fridge cake, gingerbread cinnamon cupcakes, coconut semifreddo, crunchy topped banana cake and honeycomb & milk chocolate biscotti.
There are a few other bloggers who have great recipes in the book, pictured on the front cover is a recipe from a long time friend Karen, who writes Lavender and Lovage.
