I’m ashamed to say I severely neglected Flo 🫣(my starter…). I didn’t feed her for nearly 3 weeks and tbh, I was a little over it 🫠 Then someone posted on a local Facebook group that they were looking for some sourdough starter… Was the universe was sending me a sign?! 😂

I quickly revived Flo, donated a batch and decided it was time to have another crack at a loaf. I’m so glad I did 😊 My first one didn’t really rise as I knocked too much air out of it whilst shaping (still trying to work this bit out), but my second loaf was way better… and dare I say, my best yet 😄

Call it divine intervention (or pure coincidence!), whatever it was, I’m relieved that Flo was saved from the brink 😅

I’m still very much learning with each bake, and although my loaf is far from perfect (possibly a little over proofed and I need to work on that slash!), I am one proud sourdough mumma! 😌

A rather large birthday pavlova I made for myself a while ago…! 🍓🫐

The unattractive plastic tray was the only thing big enough to put it on, but as it was for me, it was very much a go big or go home situation 😋🤍

Thank you so much for all your lovely messages following my last post 💖 I was really touched and I’m truly grateful 💕 A holiday and a bit of time out has done me the world of good and I’m looking forward to sharing more of my bakes on here 🤗🍰

I’ve got a small backlog of bakes that I didn’t get the chance to post, so thought I’d start with the birthday cake I made for my OH 🎂😁

I handed him a recipe book and he chose a no fuss lemon, lime and ginger loaf cake… I had other ideas though, it is a celebration cake after all 🤷‍♀️🥳

I pimped it up with some blueberry compote and ginger mascarpone buttercream 🫐🫚Unfortunately it didn’t quite adapt as well as I hoped! Being a loaf cake recipe with ground almonds, the sponge was pretty dense. The flavour was good, but the main issue was the texture of the stem ginger in the sponge combined with the blueberry compote. It was an overload of soft juicy bits which didn’t work so well together! 🥴 Perhaps ground ginger would have been better 🤔

I possibly should have stuck to the no fuss loaf, but I enjoyed experimenting and the ginger mascarpone buttercream was delish! 🫚🎂 If like me you find pure buttercream a bit much, a touch of mascarpone is so good. It really lifts it and makes the buttercream super silky 😋

It’s been such a long time since I’ve been on here! Life took quite a different turn, and for a number of personal reasons as well as a crazy year of renovations and getting a part-time job, I had to abandon my baking course 😔 However, thankfully I had completed all my practical assessments beforehand and I officially passed my course this week 😅👩‍🎓

With everything that’s going on, I have decided not to return to my business, and unfortunately I won’t be pursuing my baking yet either. I loved what I built up with Vintage Fizz but running a small business is challenging and all consuming, so sadly it’s not the right time for me. I wouldn’t be happy if I couldn’t give my customers 100%.

I will still be practising everything I’ve learnt at home with the intention of starting something eventually, so I hope to continue to share my bakes 🍰 You might see a fair bit of choux and tarts around here! 😏

If you’re still with me, a big thanks for sticking around! 😍And a big thank you to my lovely customers who made it worthwhile, and continued to support both my business and baking journey. It really has meant the world 💞

In the meantime, here’s a picture of a Bakewell Tart, my last bake at college and one of my favourites. Always good to end on a high note! 😋

I’ll be back again soon 🥰

Love,
Bo 💛
