4 Crowd-Pleasing Treats
You know the story too well – harvest looms ahead and you scrabble around the cupboards looking for some tinned goods to donate to the local church/school/community group.
This year, why not break the mould and wrap something homemade and delicious to donate to the older members of your community. Or bake some delicious morsels to sell and raise money for a local charity?
Take inspiration from the brand new 2017 Dairy Diary and the recently released Dairy Diary Favourites cookbook. Here’s a selection of scrumptious bakes as a taster of what the books have to offer.
