​It's the most sparkly evening of the year tomorrow and like many we're off to an organised display, but how can we make sure to avoid the sugary lure of the candy floss and toffee apple stalls? Presenting the Banana Firework Lolly! Avoiding all the processed bits and bobs can be tricky at events like these but these Firework Lollies are quick and easy to make, and look so good that kids and adults alike will be happy to grab one while they watch the pop, bang, whizz! 

With half term starting for many of us and National Chocolate Week ending it felt like a great time to share these perfect little choc orange cakes. Easy for the kids to make and perfect for taking on mini adventures!

It's just been National Baking Week and now it's half term for many of us, these Mini Victoria Sponge Cakes are a brilliant thing to make with the kids. These mini cakes do have gluten free flour so are not low-carb, however we have replaced the sugar with an erythritol and stevia blend which works well, it does mean they do not rise as much, but the blood sugar load is a lot better, and the kids love these, we have used for birthday cake as well!

With school back in full effect the kiddos are in need of a little more fuel than normal to tackle their busy days. This Chocolate and Blueberry loaf recipe is an absolute winner at our house for when the after school munchies hit! Low in carbs it will help keep blood sugar levels stable but provide that all important energy for afterschool clubs and more.
