Lemon madeleines

The madeleines are lovely and soft on the inside, but still with a slight crisp on the surface. Small and sweet and full of flavour were these, which were made with my own lemons. They are just enough for a nice pick-me-up in the afternoon when fatigue hits!

 

 

Almond and chocolate bites with espresso buttercream

These were deliciously moist little after-dinner treats with a smooth buttercream flavoured with expresso. I don't like to drink coffee, but I loved this cream, and it went beautifully with the cake.
