It’s Christmas on Sunday! Need some last minute ideas for people you don’t want to / can’t afford to spend a lot on or want to make something pretty and homemade?
Some suggested contents: A nice thick set of oven mitts to put it all in, an oven thermometer or timer (or both!) a good whisk, a silicone spatula, and a good paring knife!
I use Victorinox knives which you can find in all good cooking stores (King of Knives, Creative Cooks etc). They are black/red handle small knives that are usually in a box and are around $7.95-$9.95. If your recipient has never had a good sharp knife it will change their cooking life!
I also recommend an oven thermometer, because as I always say in all of my classes, your oven can be out by 10-20C – and can be the cause of baking failures!
Alternatively, if you want to specialise your present a little bit, why not build a cake decorating kit?
Add into it some cupcake liners, sprinkles, candles and sparklers, piping nozzles and bags, royal icing or gumpaste decorations and anything else you think might be great for that budding cake decorator friend of yours. Find a nice box and pop it all inside!
Also if you’re in Adelaide shout them a Cupcake Treats class voucher
