SATURDAY, 3 PM. KETTLE ON.

Coffee & cake

Three o’clock on a Saturday and somebody puts the kettle on. Fresh coffee, a pot of tea, a little time for yourself and the people you love. The cake stand comes out, the good cups too, and the cinnamon rolls are still warm and sticky from the oven. These are the recipes for that hour. Something baked, something with a spoon, something to dunk and always a second slice.

Cinnamon Rollsstill warm. hands off.
one slice each.

Coffee & cake tips

Something baked, something chilled, something with a spoon. Coffee and cake doesn’t need a reason, it just needs a second fork. I put together my best tips and a little essentials list for you, so everything’s in one place. Now go put the kettle on.
