Week beginning February 14th - Valentines Friands

Week beginning February 14th - Valentines week

Love is in the air, everywhere you look around
Love is in the air, every sight and every sound......

Monday, as you all know, is Valentines day. And while we won't be getting to cheesy and handing out red carnations or roses to every female (we used to do that in a restaurant I worked in), we will be smashing out the latte art hearts on your coffees all week and Chef Jared has also gone one step further again and created raspberry friands.

For those who are unsure, a friand is basically a little cake, made with ground almonds instead of flour, and Jareds recipe makes wonderfully moist, sweet cakes that are to die for. Topped with pink raspberry icing and an actual raspberry on top, these will be an amazing litle way to impress someone in your office if you feel so inclined.

So get in quick on Monday and get a friand for a special someone in your life. They will not be disappointed.
