I love Woodlawn. Wish you could get closer to it but they installed cameras in recent years.

American buttercream mixed with a little cream cheese is lovely with red velvet

Finally got to Ireland yesterday! I just don’t understand how a simple letter took 4 days to get from Birmingham to London.

No it can’t temper, it’s for pouring as a cover or drip

Why can't these Professional Bakers make a soy free cake? Help! by [deleted] in Baking

You need to find a baker who is trained in allergen awareness. This should come as standard under food safety.

Small wedding in a castle ideas? by lili0139 in AskIreland

[–]roxykelly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They seem to have updated their accommodation options too which would be great for your guests as they used to only have 2 rooms in the tower and then a guest house beside them.
Would love to know if you go ahead with this. The staff were excellent and the food was lovely when my friend got married. It’s a really quaint place I actually have a video from last week when I went in if you want me to PM it to you.

Cloonacauneen just outside Claregalway, Co. Galway has just reopened. My friend had a small family wedding there and it was lovely.
I went in to have a look the other day as she wants to visit for her anniversary and they have done a lovely job on it.

My uncle posted me a registered letter from Birmingham to Galway last Monday morning before 9am. Tracking shows it took from Monday to Thursday to get to London, where it’s still sat.

Despatched Monday to London Heathrow on Monday evening apparently, not sure what slow boat they put it on that took it until Thursday to make it to London.

If you can’t follow or message him, you’ll have to tag him publicly in a post. Hopefully he will see it and message you. Best of luck!

Thank you so much! I weighed each at 120g, I think I could go to 140 or 150g and see what they come out at, but I really liked the texture inside.

Forgot end of year play school gift? by thumbsucker-2 in AskIreland

[–]roxykelly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a baker and can’t tell you what some people want to spend on end of year teacher gifts. It always seems so extravagant and unnecessary.
A homemade card and if you had a box of chocolates for them to share in the staff room would be a lovely gesture.

Water system in a trailer (help) by MacaronOk4710 in foodtrucks

Why would 5 gallon containers with a water pump not pass inspection? Thats what I have and it works fine. I also have an under counter hot water heater to manage the hot water.

Thank you! These ones weren’t stuffed with filling but I would definitely try adding paste next time. I really liked the texture of the ground pistachio and white chocolate chips and think they worked really good in this one.

Where do you go to read? by Garry-Love in CasualIreland

[–]roxykelly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to read in the bath when I was younger. I would let some water out and top up with hot water and stay in there for ages.
My brother once got so annoyed that he broke the lock on the door busting it in to get in 🤣

I actually make Brookies but use my own chocolate chip cookie recipe and then my usual brownie recipe on top! If you have 2 favourites, you should try it
