One final festive foray, because I just can’t let go 🫠🫠 (and because, for obvious reasons, I couldn’t post this before Christmas): today’s blog post is all about the handmade gifts that I gave to friends & family this year!
There’s knitting, there’s crochet, there’s projects made months in advance and there is, of course, this cookie box— my first and (hopefully) not my last attempt at one!

BLOGMAS AT HOME: DAY 23 🎅🏻🎄✨
This year’s gingerbread undertaking was a Gingerbread Defender, which @amyjhorn_ and I made, following Chlorosis Wolff’s templates & tutorial! 🫚🛻🍪✨
It may have only lasted 36 hours before it collapsed (RIP), but it was still delicious (thanks to @mimasinclair ‘s gingerbread recipe!) and was (for a short while) recognisable as a car, so I’m thinking it was a success! 😋🤩
Today’s post features all my thoughts on the process & what I learned while making this project!! The link to my blog is in my bio, or you can head directly to this post via my Blogmas highlight 🫶🏻✨

BLOGMAS AT HOME: DAY 17 🎅🏻🌲✨
Andddd we’re back with another festive instalment of my Baking Around the World Series! This time, we’re off to Iceland with these Marens-Kornflexkökur: meringue cookies, flavoured with vanilla & studded with dark chocolate and cornflakes! 🇮🇸🍫🍪
I also opted to drizzle mine with dark chocolate (inspired by @kateveggiedesserts ), because when does extra chocolate ever make a bake less tasty? 😋🍫
The recipe for these is on my blog now! You can find the link to my blog in my bio, or you can head directly to this post via my Blogmas highlight 🫶🏻✨
