Cloud 9 Cake-Gate Saga

The past couple of months has seen cloud 9 turn into a mini bakery club and I finally gave into peer pressure and decided the join the wannabe bakers amongst us. I decided to opt for a desert favourite of mine which is Chocolate Brownies and they went down a storm with everyone at Cloud 9. Quotes from the team included ’10/10′, ‘Gastro Pub Quality’ ‘Delicious’ and so on, not bad for a first attempt! Since the Cloud 9 ‘bakery club’ was created by ‘head baker’ Mike Sperrey we have seen and sampled various tasty delights such as Scones, Victoria Sponge, Chocolate Vanilla & Hazelnut Muffins, Lemon Drizzle Cake and various Pumpkin derivatives such as Pumpkin & Raisin Muffins and Pumpkin Pie. We also had some gingerbread men but sadly they didn’t make it to us this was due to treacle and slight timing issues. We are also awaiting participation from Clare, I’m sure she is just weighing the competition up before she strikes but we haven’t seen anything as of yet! I’ve attached some pictures below to show the progress of the Brownies from start to eat! The recipe I used one of Jamie Olivers as attached link below http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/dessert-recipes/bloomin-brilliant-brownies
