Me, a Daring Baker? Do you believe that? Well now you can!
I am still wondering if I was hit on the head by a log when I decided to accept Ivonne's invitation to join their brilliant group.
As I carry on pondering on what I am actually doing in the group let me tell you a little about the Daring Bakers and introduce the entire group to you.
The Daring Bakers is an elite group of exquisite women and one man, all with one thought in their heads - Baking!
Our mission, if we choose to accept it, is to go where no puff pastry has gone before and no sponge cake dares to go. Each month a challenge is set by one of the members. For the rest of us this means taking the recipe, sticking to it, using the few changes that are allowed and creating it in our own interpretation. What comes out of the recipes is anyone's guess. All I can say is it's going to be a lot of fun and I am going to have a ball.
In the future this logo will be proudly displayed on my sidebar with the completed challenge of the month below it and a link to this page. The current challenge is due towards the end of the month so look forward to my first session with the Daring Bakers then. As there will be no roundup you are welcome to come back to this page each month and browse through the creations.
To see the list of all of the Daring Baker's members visit the official Daring Bakers' blogroll. You will also find a recap of all the challenges I took part in. Hope you enjoy our experiments!
