Children in Need

Children in Need is on Friday November 14th
I will be making some cakes and biscuits with my cookery group.

Lakeland have some Pudsey Cake Cases for £1.49

and Pudsey Cookie Cutter for £1.99

I've printed off some labels( Pudsey stickers)from the Learning Zone section of the Children in Need website

and each student will have a money box to take home with them to raise funds from their cakes and biscuits.

A simple biscuit recipe

can be adapted from the Children in Need Party Biscuit recipe

or a Ginger Biscuit from Rosie bakes a 'peace' of cake blog
and Fairy cakes from BBC Food
