Sweet tooth presents
Everyone has a bit of a sweet tooth; and that makes it easy to think of great home-made gifts for anyone! From boxes of fudge to the ever-popular cupcakes, personalized biscuits or even jars of preserves, there is no end to the possibilities you can create with a kitchen and bit of imagination!
I first discovered that I could make a mean lemon curd when I had a bunch of egg yolks left over after using the whites for a pavlova – another sweet speciality of mine, but not one you can really post to friends or family who live far away! I was just going to throw them away, rather than leave them congealing in a bowl, but had no idea what you could do with them. I had been browsing the web for the best conservatory prices, when I suddenly had a light bulb moment and hit the cookery sites looking for a lemon curd recipe. Sure enough; one jar of lemon curd needs exactly four egg yolks.
It’s such a simple thing to cook and you can do it in less than 15 minutes, so if you keep a few empty jars and some decorations handy, you can even make it as a last-minute present if you’ve forgotten a birthday or someone in the office gets you an unexpected Christmas gift. There’s not many foodie presents you can say that about. The ingredients are so simple too; just those pesky egg yolks, a bit of caster sugar and a whole heap of lemon juice. All stuff that most enthusiastic amateur chefs will have in their kitchen cupboards. Make up your own label to give it the personal touch and gift your uncle; a delicious gift that tastes all the better because it was made by your own fair hands!
