Carrot cake with saffron frosting
Carrot cake with saffron frosting

Using saffron is a great way to naturally impart a yellow hue and subtle floral flavour into cake frostings. Grinding and steeping the delicate threads first is the best way to extract maximum taste and colour – a pinch goes a long way!

Sticky date flapjacks
Sticky date flapjacks
Of the many alternative sweeteners available, we love date syrup. It's sweeter than sugar, so you can use less of it, and it gives the flapjacks a lovely sticky character
