So the theme for the house party was “space/sci-fi” so i tried to bake little space bunnies and made the blueberries look like planets and put star sprinkles in them.

Unfortunately my cupcake holder didn’t fit the cupcakes so they moved around a lot when i was transporting them, but they were still pretty cute i think! 🐰🫐⭐️ by @annlynn_bakes

Grapefruit burnt basque cheesecake!!

Made it for my friend’s birthday! I really think an acidic fruit pairs really well with a sweet creamy cheesecake!

Tweaked my previous cheesecake recipes as there is no actual good recipe for this online!

Strawberry jelly mousse cake! 🍰🍓

I joined the famous cake picnic that came to London for the first time! I really want to get out of my comfort zone and bake something really special so i tried a layer of jelly in between cake.

It turned out very well! But because it was in the summer by the time i got there the cake starting melting a little bit. But i really enjoyed trying everyone’s cakes! Everyone is so talented!! I hope to go again soon!

Pinecone brownies 🌰
.
Was given a big order of brownies and i really wanted to make it adorable. It was actually really easy to make! But honestly making 24 of these babies was really tiring by the end of it. But what do we all think? 🌲😊 by @annlynn_bakes

Red velvet cake 🍒🤍
.
I think this is a very popular flavour in the UK! I baked it for my work friend for his birthday and it was my first time but i think it turned out great! The recipe below is from cakes by MK, and i generally think recipes with vegetable oil in it has a denser texture which i prefer for these kinds of cakes (similar to a carrot cake or banana bread) ❣️

Here is the recipe (for an 8 inch cake):
- 275g flour
- 18g cornflour
- 14g cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 86g of unsalted butter
- 141g of vegetable oil
- 344g of granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 teaspoon vinegar
- 38g of red liquid food colouring
- 158g buttermilk

Cream cheese frosting
- 400g cold cream cheese
- 300g whipping cream
- 60g powdered sugar by @annlynn_bakes

My first bake sale 🐰🐻🐸🌸
Japanese style sugar cookies
.
Thank you to all my friends for the support and i hope everyone who tried it enjoyed it! A handwritten message and a handdrawn name card is included!
And if you ordered this time, your next order will be 30% off 💫!
.
It was actually pretty stressful to bake so many orders at one time and in my tiny little kitchen. I get easily stressed because i really want the cookies to be my best work, but i think they turned out pretty cute! I think my favourite part is definately packing the cookies and watching what i imagined in my head come alive 💖
Moving forward i want to experiment with cakes next! Hope you all look forward to it! by @annlynn_bakes

Banana cake but make it plaintain? 🍌
.
I went to the farmers market and there were so many giant bananas that were going really bad. And they were selling 4 of them for a pound. So i thought it would be nice to make some banana cake with them! But after i baked them i realised it was not as sweet as i would have liked, and this is were i realised... they were actually plantains! ⭐️
.
These are usually used for cooking rather than baking, but actually i liked it that it wasnt that sweet! If i buy these again i will definately find another way to use them well. 😌 by @annlynn_bakes

Sugar cookies for the bake sale for my company! 🍪
I'd say i hit 2 birds with one stone here (1) raising money for charity (2) feeding the hungry corporates
.
Although not shown my banana cake in the last slide was actually the 2nd thing to have sold out in the bake sale. Another success! 😋👍🏻 by @annlynn_bakes

Madeleines - lemon, matcha and chocolate
.
When i was making it i found that madeleines can actually be considered as cookies because you chill the dough before actually baking it! Pop it in the oven and after 10 minutes you have them ready! I've coated mine with a glaze ive made for pound cakes and the rankings from my dear friends are as follows:

1. Lemon 🍋
2. Matcha 🌿
3. Chocolate 🍫

Heres the recipe:

Madeleines
- 113g) unsalted butter (plus another 2 Tbsp for the pan)
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 100g granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 115g sifted all-purpose flour* (spooned & leveled)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt

Coatings
- lemon: 100g powdered sugar + 15g lemon juice (optional: lemon zest as a topping)
- matcha: 100g white chocolate + 2g matcha powder
- chocolate: 100g chocolate

Steps
1. Melt the butter.
2. Using a handheld mixer beat the eggs and sugar together on high speed for at least 8 minutes. The mixture will be thick, pale, and form ribbons when you lift the beater(s). Beat in the lemon zest and vanilla extract until combined.
3.Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a small bowl. Using a spatula, gently fold into egg mixture. I suggest carefully folding in half of the flour mixture, then folding in the other half. (Handle this batter with care. It’s very delicate.
4. Stir 1/4 cup of the batter into the melted butter. Then stir it all into the rest of the batter.
5. Cover the batter and chill in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes. Try not to chill any longer than this as the butter in the batter will begin to solidify
6. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C).
7. Brush the madeleine pan with melted butter.
8. The batter will be quite airy and spongey after resting. This is good! Do not try to deflate it. Spoon 1 generous Tablespoon of batter and plop it in (do not spread it out)
9. Bake for 10-12 minutes and they are done when the tops spring back after lightly pressed with your finger!

Coatings
Mix powdered sugar and lemon juice; melt the chocolates
And dip your madeleines inside! 🤍 by @annlynn_bakes

How to make the perfect cinnamon bun (in a cupcake tray!)
.
Ive been wanting to make them ever since it turned autumn, and was inspired by japanese youtuber (either toka or nekoniwa) to make them look similar to the swedish cardomom buns! They were really delicious! I definately still need some practice in making bread but ive made so many i had to bring them to my office to share and my boss liked them because they are not too sweet!
.
I will bake this every autumn and improve 💪 by @annlynn_bakes
