Cake-a-thon

One of my colleagues at work is preparing for a double marathon this year and he aims to raise funds for a cancer foundation. To help him raise funds we have scheduled a morning tea cakefeast where willing bakers from the office woud bring a treat or two and sell it to people at work.

My contribution consists of a lemon meringue pie which proved itself to be a crowd pleaser, a chocolate brioche which i have not done before (but you gotta have something with chocolate!) And for something different, a savory muffin - carrot, parsley and onion.










The savory muffins went down surprisingly well - the lemon meringue pie was pretty much sold out early too. Recipes to be posted later!

Carrot, parsley and onion muffins

Chocolate brioche, a Donna Hay recipe

Seeing double - one for guests (had some people over that weekend!) and one for the cake-a-thon

The outcome was we raised $165.75 from these plus date slices, chocolate swirly shortbread cookies, rocky road, healthy muffins and cheesecake from the other bakers!
