Strawberry Sweethearts

Fresh Raspberry Slices

Cumberland Tea Cakes

Cherry Stars

All Bran Loaf

Editors Note: We are pretty sure this says "Bistorten" however we can find absolutely no evidence of this being a real word! Perhaps it's some kind of compound noun that Sheila cooked up herself.

Raspberry Wine Bistorten

Mincemeat and Marzipan Tea Bread

Orange and Apricot Squares

Pat's tips: I used chocolate and hazelnut cookies for the base and didn't add the dark brown sugar. Leave the base to cool before making the cheesecake, and serve with double cream and fruit (or if preferred, creme fraiche).

Belgian Chocolate and Baileys Cheesecake

Banana Loaf

Christmas Eccles Cakes

Serve cut into fingers as cake, or small pieces and serve with coffee.

Keeps in air-tight tin for many weeks and improves with keeping.

Belgian Xmas Chocolate Cake

After Eight Cheesecake

A tasty treat - great with a cup of coffee!

We found that the topping needed just a small dash of whole milk to make it more spreadable.


Cappuccino Slices

A delicious loaf with apple, walnuts and raisins - perfect with an afternoon cuppa!

Apple & Nut Tea Bread

A nice alternative to the traditional Christmas cake.

Omit fruit and nuts off top of cake and ice it if wished.


Pineapple Christmas Cake

Can be iced if wished, can be frozen but before iced. Editors note: Keep an eye on the cooking time, we found this only needed about 40 minutes before it was done.


Cranberry and Nut Tea Bread

Tea breads are good standbys for the freezer but will also keep well in a tin box for a couple of weeks. This one improves with keeping.

Serve thinly sliced with butter or rum butter.
