If you are anything like me, then you grew up with the dull hum of a mixer as the backdrop to your childhood. My Mum, Dad and my Nanna were avid cooks, baking and rolling and tarting up (in a bakey way) so that we all had delicious after school snacks, desserts and lunchbox treats. Mixing bowls were wiped clean with little fingers. Beaters and whisks were coveted and fought over. Unsupervised iced cakes were dotted with sneaky snack marks. Baking supplies like chocolate buds and condensed milk tubes were secreted away with crossed fingers that they would not be missed.
Was it like that for you, I wonder? Did you grow up bakey, like me? Perhaps you are a latent baker, seduced by the likes of Masterchef, Nigella, Sophie Dahl, Maggie Beer or Stephanie A? Or perhaps you have, dare I say it, NEVER BAKED AT ALL! It’s okay. We can show you how. We are good with our hands. We are!
Whichever handy, cakey camp you are from, we are super glad you are hanging with us at Justb. Our whole team is gob-smacked by the amazingly great sense of community we’ve got going on around here. It is our very fave place to be. As a sugary thank-you-slash-celebration of our buddying up, we thought you might like the chance to win something ace. So here it is! Drum roll, if you please… (sausage roll, if you prefer).
