Meet Amy
Hello and welcome to my desserts and sweet treats website. I'm so happy you're here!
I'm the person that comes up with all the recipes here - a dream job for me. I'm truly at my happiest when I'm creating and baking delicious desserts and sweet treats. I've had a love of baking ever since my mum taught me how to make classic British recipes when I was a little girl.
I live in Bristol, UK with my husband of 15 years, Justin. Together we have three children Lewis, Holly and Rose. Lewis and Holly are in their early twenties now and have both flown the nest to go to university and pursue their careers. Rose is still in junior school and is one of my chief taste testers. We also have an ancient tabby cat called Ziggy and two very bouncy Border Terriers called Angus and Bonnie - so when I'm not baking I can be found walking them in the woods distracting them from squirrels!
How this website has evolved
I've been blogging since 2012 and in that time the subject matter has taken quite a swing from a just-for-fun beauty blog to all things parenting when my children were small and finally settling on this blog, a dessert and sweet treats recipe site.
I've had so many blog names I've lost count. In late 2017 I switched my main url into that of my own name because I wasn't quite sure which direction my online career was taking.
After delving deep into my statistics I realised that my dessert recipes had always been very popular so that's what I settled on. I want to serve you, my readers, by giving you the useful and engaging content you really want.
Dessert Recipes - Perfect For All Occasions
My goal is to give you excellent tried and tested recipes for desserts, classic British baking and super extravagant showstopper cakes every now then. I also happen to be known as The Queen of Cocktails by my family and friends so you will also find boozy and indulgent after-dinner cocktails here too.
Whatever the recipe, rest assured I will give you full step-by-step instructions often with a video tutorial so that you can be confident your recreation will turn out perfectly every single time.
Whether you're looking for an extra special birthday cake, showstopping dessert for Christmas or good old-fashioned British biscuits I hope my website will be the first place you look for the recipe.
