Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Yes...I’d go for that Rosehip.

WL ..those cakes are brilliant.

I picked up 6 duck eggs today. Apparently they are superb for baking..
I’ll let you know.

Duck eggs make fabulous victoria sponges :)

There were some at the Farm shop, but I have plenty of eggs so didn't get any.

I made a fruitcake today (1950s Bero boiled fruit cake recipe). emptied the jar of fruit. Went to fill it and I have no more raisins or sultanas in the cupboard :( - this is a very sad state of affairs, never normally happens and apparently everyone has sold out.
I'm also low on yeast, which is harder to find than loo roll apparently.

Duck eggs make cakes rise beautifully, but can make them a bit rubbery. And there is always that slight whiff of duck.

Better than no cake at all, though.

Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies baked and bread dough started (luckily had a new tin of yeast before the famine).

I love that Be-Ro recipe, Rosehip. My mum must have made hundreds of boiled fruitcakes and I've made a fair few myself!!

Bero, my mum swore by Bero flour, she was more of an apple pie, rock cakes, sponge pudding cook.

Artistic lighting, Jacdaw.
