The Bake Box

We’ve been harvesting these beautiful chantenay carrots this evening and I’m thinking they’re destined for a delicious carrot cake. Watch this space!

Available this weekend at The Bake Box…

🍪 Giant chocolate caramel cookies £3 each

🍬 Bags of Scottish tablet £1.50

🥚 Boxes of free range eggs £2.50 for half a dozen

Available from 9am Saturday. For the exact location of the honesty box check out the comments.

An earlier batch of tablet didn’t quite turn out as expected but it gave me the chance to make these. These giant chocolate cookies have a caramel centre and they’re loaded with chocolate chips. They’re pretty huge though so you might want to share one with a pal!

As you know, I love an honesty box. We discovered this one recently on the beautiful Isle of Gigha. It had everything a wandering cyclist, hiker or camper could need. There were fresh loaves, tablet, caramel shortbread, scones and even some of Katie Morag’s ‘Porridgies’. There were also some beautiful hand-knitted hats made from Argyle wool. What a find!

It’s chocolate orange muffins this weekend. Delicious as they are or even better after 10 seconds in the microwave! Available at The Bake Box from 9am today.

This sounds great! We’re so lucky to have such a good food scene in Crieff…

This weekend these lemon and blueberry muffins will be landing in The Bake Box. They’re deliciously light and the fresh berries on top finish them off perfectly. They’ll be available from 9am Saturday.
