🍰Summer baking 🍰
.
.
I was up at @robinsonsiom again yesterday and saw these beautiful edible flowers from @staarvey_farm and was inspired to make these mini Victoria sponge cakes ❤️
.
.
I got all the ingredients from Robinson’s and most of them are Manx! Robinson’s have their #summeroflove open day at their cooil road store tomorrow, 30th June from 10am where there will be showcasing the best local suppliers, tastings, samples and fun kids activities! Get yourselves up there! .
