Yes! The week of 14-20 October brings a double win as it is both Chocolate Week and National Baking Week. And what better excuse could any of my fiends have to bake me a yummy chocolate torte!
Chocolate Week promotes fine flavour chocolate, celebrating the work of top chocolatiers and chocolate companies. But of course there’s nothing to stop you all participating at home!

National Baking Week supports the Great Ormond Street Hospital, one of the top five paediatric research hospitals in the world. So the idea is that by baking and selling your results money is raised for the GOSH charity.
As always there is more information over on the Chocolate Week website at www.chocolateweek.co.uk and on the National Baking Week website, www.nationalbakingweek.co.uk.
