If, like us, you're a fan of foodie programmes, you'll have come across Stacie Stewart, the hottest new thing on the bakery scene. If her name's not ringing a bell, the hairdo should do it – her enormous beehive is pretty hard to miss. She's even named her bakery – The Beehive Bakery – after it.
Even more impressive than her hair is her baking, which we spent the evening scoffing last week at the launch party for her new book, Stacie Bakes (Pavilion, £18.99). Moist banana bread, red velvet cake, zingy lemon tart... I took it upon myself to sample them all and, boy, were they tasty.
Her skinny carrot meringue cake, below, is really light and tasty – guaranteed to bring a little sunshine to a dreary day. What do you like to bake on a grey day? Tell us in the comments box below.
