February’s pretty much here, and with it brings a whole host of pink things. Yep, it’s going to be all hearts and chocolate around here for the next couple of weeks. You may say that all this pink is just me trying to hide from the fact that I’m turning 30 in 5 days. You’d…

Candy Cane Chocolate Bark
[AdSense-B] It seems like every baking blog out there has their own recipe for candy cane chocolate bark. It’s pretty much a Christmas staple, and that’s because it: a) is easy to make b) is pretty as hell c) tastes gorgeous and d) makes a really great Christmas gift for anyone who likes chocolate (and…
Ombré Summer Berry Ice Pops
Yep, it’s getting seriously summery around here. On Monday I gave you my Pimm’s Cupcakes, and today I’m turning up the summer sun to 11 with these gorgeous Ombré Summer Berry Ice Pops. They’re beautiful, easy to make, and are packed full of summer berries. So, what are you waiting for? One of my earliest…
White Chocolate Sunset Bark
I’m bringing you summer in a big way today – just look at this simply gorgeous white chocolate sunset bark! Is it a tropical sunset, or just some yummy white chocolate with food colouring and sprinkles? Who even knows. ???❤️❤️❤️??? Major love for this stuff. White chocolate is my new fave. Although this stuff is…
Homemade Lime Curd
This past weekend was pretty much summer here in the UK, and of course that meant that everyone ventured out and about for picnics and barbecues in the park. I did manage to get in the kitchen and throw together a couple of things – the salted caramel banana bread I shared with you earlier in…
Mars Bar Cakes
Today I’m sharing with you what is quite possibly the easiest yet scrummiest bake around – Mars Bar Cakes. More exciting than your usual marshmallow squares, these will definitely be the hit of your kid’s birthday party (apart from Jelly cubes though, am I right?) or office charity bake sale. Everyone loves Rice Krispie treats!…
Cherry Bakewell Granola
Making your own homemade Cherry Bakewell Granola is easier than you might think – and I have it on extremely good authority that it tastes like perfection. I live with the world’s most experienced breakfast cereal eater (probably). My wife literally buys three boxes of cereal every single time we go to the supermarket, and…
Mini Chocolate Cherry Pavlovas
Looking for chocolate swirled meringue nests, filled with chocolate cream and cherry compote? Then you’ve come to the right place! Meringues are probably my all-time favourite thing to make, and I think I’ve worked out why. Most people have this misguided idea that making your own meringues is both really difficult, and a tonne of…
Cherry Blueberry Crumble
We’re kicking off Autumn here on What Charlotte Baked with a good old fashioned crumble. But, I wanted to do something a smidge different (of course) and so instead of traditional apples, this crumble is filled with sweet juicy cherries and tangy blueberries. Maybe it’s the most American crumble of all. Does America even do…
Mojito Ice Lollies
After killing it with my Peach Raspberry Ice Lollies a few weeks ago, I thought it only fitting to give my specially imported ice lolly moulds another go. And this time I went boozy. I’m pretty sure Mojitos are everyone’s favourite cocktail. They went down a storm at our recent wedding after all. And you are…
Lemon Ripple Ice Cream
… that doesn’t really look all that ripply. Apologies. I put plenty of sprinkles on it though, does that count? The supposed ripples in this homemade lemon ice cream come in the form of lots of tangy lemon curd. My lemon curd came from a jar, but bonus points if you make your own. I’ve…
Peach Raspberry Ice Lollies
Summer is here at last! Well, at least for the weekend anyway. Is there any better way to enjoy the weekend than by spending it in our tiny little kitchen, slaving away over a stand-mixer, and making the world’s most hideous tasting chocolate cake? Yes, most definitely. On the plus side, I did manage to…
Salted Caramel Brownies (Gluten Free)
Happy Wednesday! It’s almost the weekend (well, kind of), and to celebrate I have got some absolutely devine salted caramel brownies to share with you today. They are bloody gorgeous. Controversially, salted caramel isn’t really one of my favourite flavours. Why on Earth did I make these salted caramel brownies then? Well, ever since Alexa…
Soft Amaretto Cookies (Gluten Free)
Morning everyone 🙂 Today I’m bringing you sweet and soft amaretto cookies, which include a generous helping of my alcohol of choice – Disaronno. Just a quick post today – I’ve reached the stage in the wedding planning process where my to-do list is becoming more of a to-do book. Luckily, these soft amaretto cookies…
Coconut Ice
Morning all. This is my ‘Valentine’s Day’ recipe – the ever-so unromantic Coconut Ice. I decided to make something pink, because pink = love, right? But then I went and coloured them peach. Top marks for me. I’m trying to rebuild my relationship with the peach food colouring I bought to make the peach disaster…
Easter Egg Ice Cream
Rich home made Easter egg ice cream, crammed full of crushed Mini Egg and Creme Egg pieces. Perfect for an Easter treat 🙂 If I was stuck on a desert island, the one thing I would take with me is a tonne of chocolate ice cream. And a freezer. Chocolate ice cream is my vice. And…
