The sweetest of treats from our queen of cakes

Delisious traditional english dessert eton mess.
Michelle Darmody: How to make Eton Mess — and the mistakes to avoid
"Passion fruit, stewed gooseberries, diced mango, macerated raspberries or some lemon curd all work just as well within the assembly as the traditional strawberry."

White cream cupcake with color sprinkles on rose
Michelle Darmody: How to bake the perfect fairy cake — and the mistakes to avoid
"They moved from children's party staple to fancy wedding adornment, a cupcake tower is very handy for weddings guests and party goers, each one a perfect single serve."

strawberry dessert pirozhenny with white cream strawberry pieces
Michelle Darmody: How to bake a classic Strawberry Shortcake — and mistakes to avoid
"If strawberries are not a favorite, you can fill them with any soft fruit, grilled peaches work very well or poached pears."

muffins with spinach,  feta cheese pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds
Michelle Darmody: How to bake savoury muffins — and the mistakes to avoid
Adding some vegetables to these muffins is a handy way to have a relatively healthy snack to hand. I find them particularly useful when traveling with children.

Scottish Caramel Slice or Millionaire's Shortbread Confectionery Dessert with Layers of Chocolate and Caramel over Shortbread Cr
Michelle Darmody: How to bake Millionaire's Shortbread Squares — and the mistakes to avoid

Butter Toffee Crunch Chocolate Chip Cookies
Michelle Darmody: How to bake chewy chocolate-chip cookies — and mistakes to avoid
"Originally intended to accompany ice cream, that is still a great use for them today. These cookies make two wonderful sides of an ice cream sandwich as the chewiness allows you to bite into the sandwich without squishing the ice cream."

Freshly Baked Cheesecake
Michelle Darmody: How to make an American-style baked cheesecake — and mistakes to avoid
"We had versions with chocolate peanut butter cups, cherries in syrup, colourful candy sweets, but my favourite was always the simple vanilla. It was baked to perfection each time with a dark golden top and a creamy, yet crumbly interior rich in flavour."

Orange Upside Down Cake
Michelle Darmody: How to make a classic polenta cake — and mistakes to avoid
"This cake has a lovely rich, buttery, citrus flavour. Pouring the syrup over the warm cake at the end is key to keeping the cake full of moisture."

Date bars with oat crumble topping
Michelle Darmody: How to make date slices — and the mistakes to avoid
"They make a great picnic snack, or with the addition of a touch of ground ginger they transform into a warming rainy-day treat."

Raspberry cake known as Bublanina sprinkled with powdered sugar
Michelle Darmody: How to bake a raspberry traybake — and the mistakes to avoid
"They are a good choice when you want to feed a crowd, and there is also flexibility with ingredients and flavours."
