Float like a Theme

Guest Spot

Claire Martinsen reports on Butterfly World - "they have really committed to the theme.  From the toilet building [in the shape of a hive], to Nectar Cafe, to the butterfly cookies in the cafe.  Its well done and well thought through."

Easy Home Bake

Have you noticed the range of Brownie and Cookie dough products in your supermarket?  If my kids can bake them when getting home from school, perhaps more cafe owners should be using their bake-off ovens a little more.

Alfajor from Argentina

Delicious cookies from Argentina - filled with dulce de leche milk caramel spread and coated with meringue or chocolate.  Havanna is apparently the leading brand.

Waiting to see who brings them into the UK or makes something similar.  Let me know.

Banana Pretzels & Bronky

Good on Fresh Element at the Baltic for coming up with some original items - a Bronky is made of cookie dough; hard on the outside and soft inside, so now you know.
