Is Black Really White?

Science will tell you that black is not a colour, rather it is the absence of colour or the fact that there is no colour there. I expect that makes you think of white, rather than black!

Get Your Bake On!

Have you been inspired by the Great British Bake Off?

We are BIG fans of 17 year old Martha, and love that she has shown Britain that kids can bake just as well (if not better!) than adults. After leaving the show, Martha said “I wanted to show that young people can do it and you don’t need hundreds of years of experience”.

A lot of you probably have already done a bit of baking with parents or grandparents, but moving on to baking independently can be a bit daunting.

To help you get your bake on, we’ve some tips on getting started, and simple recipe ideas that will make you feel like you’ve baked a showstopper. So, move aside, mums and dads, this is all about baking for kids!

On Your Marks, Get Set… BAKE!
