The old and the new of it – in the background a family favourite of decades (my Nan’s pumpkin fruit cake, dating as far back to the 1940s).
In the foreground a gluten free coconut flour chocolate cake, a recipe a friend sent to me (thanks Anne). Oh my goodness – it is absolutely delicious.

Both are sitting waiting for any family or friends to drop in over the weekend. Two options to serve with a cuppa.
I might even get to making some sausage rolls to add a savoury note. They would probably be welcome on a cold winter’s morning…..
