Welcome to the first Love Cake challenge. This is a cake making challenge for anyone who loves to bake cakes and share them. You don't have to be a blogger to join in simply upload your photos and descriptions to your social media accounts. Full instructions are here.
February is of course the month in
which Valentine's Day falls which is perfect for this first edition
of Love Cake. The theme for this month is BAKING WITH PASSION.
You can interpret this as you like.
Bake a heart shaped cake, one with hearts or roses decoration, a
traditional passion cake, a cake for your loved one, a favourite cake
or simply a recipe that means a lot to you and you have a passion for
it. So, with my apologies to William Shakespeare, if cake is the food
of love, bake on!
Here's how to join in:
1. Please make sure your entry conforms
to this month's theme of BAKING WITH PASSION.
2. Post your photographs and
description on your blog, Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram,
Tumblr or Google+ - just make sure they are for public viewing and
can be seen by anyone. All photographs must be your own original
image and not taken from another source. You can carefully style your
photos or take a quick snap on your mobile – either is fine!
3. Enter the URL (web address) of your
post into the Linky at the bottom of this post. Once the link closes
on Friday 28th February 2014 at 23:55 no more entries will
be accepted.
4. If you are putting your post on your
blog please display the Love Cake badge and link back to this blog
post. Old posts are accepted but please update them with the Love
Cake badge and link. This is a blog hop so share the cake love around
if you can.
5. If you use Twitter, Facebook,
Instagram or Google+ please tag me and I will retweet, Like, Share or

6. By adding your link and image you agree to it being
pinned to the Love Cake Pinterest board.
7. I would love to read about the recipe you have used
to bake your cake. If the recipe is not yours please respect
copyright and do not reproduce the original recipe in full but credit
the source and link back to it.
At the end of the month I will do a round-up of all the
entries and post it on this blog.
Oh, I would love to join. However, I got absolutely no idea on what to do with the theme 'Baking with passion' so far unless I misuse the heart-shaped ice cube molds.
ReplyDeleteA 'passion cake' is essentially a carrot cake which some people add bananas or pineapple to. Do misuse that ice cube mould though. Melt some chocolate or maybe make some mousse in it.
DeleteWoohoo another cakey challenge - can't have to many of those :)
ReplyDeleteAny excuse for more cake!
