Leftovers

It's already March. I thought I'd better show you a few of the other things I baked and cooked in December and January before they go out of date!

First up, here are some cupcakes. Lots of them.







I also made this orange marmalade. We were given quite a supply of organic oranges and since the recipe I used calls for boiling the whole orange, I thought that organic oranges were the way to go.



Now, fast forward to a couple of weeks ago, when I was given lemons this time. I decided I should try my hand at some limoncello. I've got that brewing. It takes time though, so I'll keep you updated on that if it turns out well. I think it will go extremely well in some buttercream.

We've been doing more running around this week and looking at possible locations for the shop. It has been very enlightening.

I wish there was more interesting things to say but that's all for now.

  1. Well, these photos are definitely interestingly scrumptious! I can't show Iza these photos!! haha
    Actually, Foti & Iza would like the ones with the sprinkles and princess Alexandra would have to have the pink ones. Such beautiful cupcakes!
    And the marmalade looks lovely too :)

  2. i love being a busy bee with so much fresh produce - and where is that recipe that calls for boiling the whole orange (because it sounds much easier than tthe one i use - delia smith's, in which the orange are cut up in thin slices - lots of hard work!)
    i love marmalade

  5. Hello Liz! I'm still waiting for your new shop's address or the location. I'd told my Greek friends when I was there in Summer 2009, to look out for your goodies... Please do keep me update :-) I can't wait to visit Greece again and meet you :-)
