Berry Picking at Peterley Manor Farm

Since I could first walk, it has been a family tradition that my Nan and I go strawberry picking every summer. Every year without fail, we've been to Peterley Manor farm to pick the best of the strawberry crop underneath the summer sun.

Fresh Fruit and Cream Sponge Cake

I initially made this cake for my brother's birthday. Trotting down to my local fruit market, I picked up a range of strawberries, raspberries and blueberries in hope that I could try and make a birthday cake 'healthy'. It's made with a light sponge, allowing for a slightly heavier layer of whipped cream and heaps of fresh fruit, making it. Doubtless to say, as soon as the family came round it vanished- my brother (birthday boy) didn't even get to have any and I had to make yet another cake to make up for it. Tsshh.
