Hello to whoever sees this, I could say hello to those that won't but really what would be the point. Besides this is a cookery blog not a philosophy blog so we shan't discuss it again.
I'm a home baker looking to expand their knowledge and share my discoveries along the way. I have a Twitter account @GastroBaker which seems to be a must today and I'm following whichever of my favourite chefs/bakers and other cooking oddities I see fit.
At some point I do want to sale my wares (cakes and other bakes); even with only a years real baking practice I have become quite proficient at a few treats that friends and family are only too eager to try. As I make them I do try to photograph them, though I'm almost ashamed to post some of my birthday cake decorating skills, though these are improving well and I can assure you the cake underneath tastes really good.
I'll be looking to post tips that I have picked up, what equipment really is a must, recipes that I have adapted and some that I've made up and also review food if it falls into the amazing or must be shamed categories. Plus if I think of something else food related that I simply must blog about.
