Firstly, How To Make Rainbow Macaroons. How sweet are these Rainbow Macaroons? Adorable.

A macaron is a small cake or cookie, typically made from ground almonds, coconut or other nuts, with sugar and sometimes flavourings, food colouring, glacé cherries, jam or a chocolate coating.

These bright Rainbow Macaroons are ideal for gifting or to simply enjoy a little sweet treat.

There is something special about these mini cakes, isn’t there? Great for any parties you might be planning and perfect for afternoon tea.

Thirdly, Blackberry Or Strawberry Macaroons: Perfect Homemade Gifts. Blackberry Or Strawberry Macaroons anyone!? How adorable are these? More cuteness overload. Perfect pretty gift.

These pretty patisseries are very fashionable at the moment but can be very expensive to buy, so why not make your own and give it as a gift in a recycled box lined with non-stick baking paper and a lacy paper doily tied with ribbon.

Fourthly, Chocolate, Orange & Watercress Brownies with Chocolate Ganache Topping. Chocolate, orange and watercress may not seem the most obvious combination but by golly, it works! 

The sharp pepper of the watercress contrasts deliciously with the citrus flavours and bitterness of the chocolate to make a truly mouth-watering treat.

Fifth, Berry Amarula Eton Mess. Berry Amarula Eton Mess. Berry Amarula Eton Mess anyone? How yummy!? These would be perfect served up for afternoon tea. In small little glasses. Don’t you think?

Experience the irresistible combination of juicy berries and creamy Amarula liqueur in this classic British dessert with a twist.

Sixth, BerryWorld Strawberry Rose petal and Pistachio Pavlova. This is a slight Middle Eastern take on one of my favourite puddings. You could make the pavlova and add the cream and strawberries in induvial pots.

Lashings of sweetened cream flavoured with a dash of rose water, loaded onto a huge sticky meringue round, filled with fresh halved strawberries, topped with crushed pistachios and fragrant rose petals – it’s like summer on a plate!

Indulgent Afternoon Tea Desserts And Small Bites. Don’t you just love a tiled floor?

I know I do. I also love coffee cake!!

Classic Coffee And Walnut Cake:

Seventh, Classic Coffee And Walnut Cake. Classic coffee and walnut cake anyone? Delicious. What’s not to love? Hands up who loves coffee cake? Both mine are in the air! I always used to crave coffee cake when I was pregnant!

Indulge in the timeless perfection of a Classic Coffee and Walnut Cake. This irresistible masterpiece combines rich, moist coffee-infused layers with luscious walnuts and a tasty coffee filling. Creating a harmonious symphony of flavours. So good.

How about baking in a square tin the cutting into little squares to serve? Get The Recipe Here: Classic Coffee And Walnut Cake.

Eighth, Christmas Cupcakes That Might Be Too Adorable To Eat! Just might be!! Not everyone is a fan of fruit cake or mince pies. These light coconut cakes speckled with jewel-like ruby raspberries make a great alternative.

They also can even be made in advance and frozen ready iced but without the raspberry and holly decoration. Simply defrost at room temp for 2-3 hours before finishing. Great for all ages.

Ninth, Ginger Pumpkin Pie: Great Recipe For Autumn And Halloween. We couldn’t resist adding just one sweet recipe, but we think you’ll be pleased we did!

Don’t worry too much about getting rid of all those seeds. Once cooked the roasted pumpkin is pushed through a sieve, to make a silky smooth, spiced filling.

You could also use butternut squash and enjoy ‘pumpkin’ pie all year round.

Last But Not Least, How To Make BerryWorld Fruity Meringues. These classic meringues are topped with cool whipped cream and your choice of berries, they make a delicious pudding or afternoon treat.

So adorable and yummy at the same time. Do you fancy making some because I know I do!

If using less sweet berries, such as blackcurrants or gooseberries, you can choose to make them into a quick compote. Heat the berries in a pan with a few spoons of sugar and a dash of water. Taste and add more sugar to suit your taste and tartness of the berries.

Indulgent Afternoon Tea Desserts And Small Bites. So which ones are your favourites? Updated post: also this blog hop has now ended.

Did you also see this post: Steve Smith’s Top Tips for Taking Advantage of Pumpkin Season. Autumn means one thing: tens of thousands of pumpkins will be sent out to grocery isles around the country.

So if you’ve had your fill of carving Halloween faces into winter squash, why not take advantage of the ridiculously low pumpkin costs and use the fiber-rich flesh instead?

Choose a pumpkin that is substantial for its size and has a smooth, firm skin. Type in Steve Smith’s Top Tips for Taking Advantage of Pumpkin Season, into the search bar. So cool.

Thank you so much for stopping by here today. So why not try a recipe and come back later to tell me what you thought?
