Cakes, Cupcakes, Bath Bombs and January and Bloody cakes!!
DRY JANUARY, DIETS AND AAAARRRRRGGGH!
As someone who occasionally decides they are a contestant for the Great British Bake Off (Not!) I wanted to place my culinary skills in the direction of my bath tub.
Quite simply I had enough of the crumbs in the water and the calories in my body so I had the Eureka Idea of creating a "Cheat" that supported my slimming world classes and made me feel great. Impossible you say? Not quite...
Having been making classic bath products for family and friends for a number of years I decided to break out the piping bag and cup cake moulds and fill them with strawberry and coconut oils, mica colouring and replace flour with Baking powder. The result was simply irresistible indulgence that supplemented my constant sweet tooth. I couldn't wait to plonk one in the bath.
To my absolute delight it reacted as I hoped it would. Fluffy bubbles of pink and white gently floated across the water as the bomb fizzed and rolled uncontrollably. The shimmering of coconut oil floated across the surface and to my delight, it smelt like Heaven. I almost felt guilty when I finally submerged myself in my "Cake".
So. No more guilty pleasures for me. As for the diet, let's just say it's a work in progress.....
