This always makes my family chuckle when they hear me say I’m baking mad. Honestly, until the last 7 years I really couldn’t bake a thing. But now, I really enjoy baking, and Monkey seems to share this passion too. Although maybe with him, it’s more about the end result! Now I’ve discovered the perfect website, Baking Mad.
Baking Mad is a great site offering a vast array of recipes. It’s free to join, you can build up your favourite recipes from across the site in your own recipe book and join in hosted competitions. I really was spoilt for choice of what to try.
I love Madeira Cake but have never actually made it, I found a recipe on the Baking Mad site and I was off. The site gives you clear instructions, list of ingredients, preparation and cooking times.
The recipe was easy to follow, and it wasn’t long before my Madeira Cake was ready to taste test. You can see the products I used including some Allinson Flour, Billington’s Sugar and Nielsen-Massey Vanilla Extract.
I’ve now started to collate my own recipe book, Chocolate and Banana Tea Loaf is going to be our next Baking Mad treat I feel.
Any baking mad fan is going to love this site, the recipes don’t end at cakes, there are recipes for Ice Cream, Drinks, Gluten Free ideas and Sauces, picnic recipes and why not explore Baking Mad’s summer baking recipes.

That cake looks amazing, you really can’t beat a madeira cake! x
It was really good, I’ve already been asked to make it again.
Sounds like a great website for inspiration – I love baking so will take a look.
I love baking and had been using baked mad stuffs.
Your cake looks gorgeous.
I love the baking mad website – well, I love the competitions, although have only won small prizes. I don’t know if they just don’t have many entries, but I’ve won quite a lot of comps from them.
Have to admit, I’ve not used it much for actually finding recipes.
Ohh yum, yourcake looks very good and thansk for the recmmendation, I’ll check out Baking Mad. Mich x
It was lovely, it really is a fab site to explore.
Mmm, cake looks good. I do like that website for inspiration, just need to find the time to bake which I love but the children always want to join in! I love teaching them, but just sometimes want to bake something myself!
I have used baking mad site, I just need the time now to bake more, as I really enjoy it, and the results are far nicer than the boxed cakes I used to make!
