OK, let me begin by saying making this cake was a tale of woe. It was mine and my lovely boyfriend’s one year anniversary yesterday, and to celebrate… of course I baked a cake. However, it didn’t all end up … Continue reading
Because this is my very first post, I thought I would start by designing and creating a sort of cake self portrait… Roses are my favorite flower, and with Rose being my middle name, it inspired me to create a … Continue reading
Welcome to Miss Beeton Bakes!
My name is Cara Rose Beeton and I am a 21 year old undergrad studying Politics at the University of Sheffield.
Three years ago I began a love affair with baking and haven’t slowed down since. I’ve always been one of those ‘live to eat’ sort of people and luckily I have an amazing group of friends who share my passion and have inspired me to share my creations through this blog. Baking is a massive part of my life, if I’m not studying you will find me in the kitchen, experimenting with new recipes. I am not a precise baker and I absolutely love to put my own twist on recipes which suite my tastes or adapting recipes to whatever I have in my kitchen cupboard, which being a student can often be not a lot. Here you will find what I like to call my ‘idiot proof’ recipes, varying from those show stopper cakes, to the everyday. Also, this blog will help me continue on my quest to find the perfect gluten-free recipes for my mother, who up until now has had severe lack of cake in her life which saddens me. I want this blog to inspire people to get baking, not to scare them off with flashy recipes that most people don’t have the time or skill for.
So I hope that you like what you see and if you have any comments or questions, I’d love to hear from other baking enthusiasts.
