Baking starts again...

In this second wave of COVID-19 Lockdown level 3, out comes the baking trays, recipes, baking ingredients and new innovations like our eldest's chocolate and peanut butter/caramel centred cupcakes.

As we've been encouraged to stay home, save lives and not go out unless you need to go for essential shopping etc. So from our last experience, we started baking as many bakeries are still closed and it's worked out better and probably saved a lot of $ too.

We've also found it to be a good way of sharing the love with our neighbours and those needing food support such as our seniors (elderly) and those not working etc.

Baking is also a good way of using older fruit such as banana, apples and pineapple etc. to make crumbles, cakes, pies etc. It's also a good idea to bake together with children and this teaches skills that help to encourage them to continue baking even after the lockdown is over (which we hope is soon).

Anyway, happy baking out there and long may the yeast last longer in shopping aisles as well as flour etc...
