10 Years of Dulwich Farmers' Market

Last Sunday it was the 10th Anniversary of Dulwich Farmers' Market. Were you there? The Tartelettes did the birthday cake, a moist 3 layer Victoria sponge filled with strawberry jam, whipped cream and fresh fruit. Check it out!

Red Velvet Chocolate Cake

A Red Velvet Chocolate Cake for a customer order this weekend. Inside there were layers of cream cheese frosting and fresh berries. A coating of dyed red coconut and topped with more delicious fresh fruit. A 10" cake just like this one, will feed between 14 to 16 people and it is priced at £45.

Cake on The Transmitter

I have been meaning for a while to post the picture that The Transmitter - a South East local magazine - used on their main photo shoot and now here it is. This was a Chocolate and Raspberry layer cake filled with a Strawberry Swiss Meringue Frosting and topped with fresh raspberries. The butterflies were made of white chocolate and the cherries on the top were sprayed with edible gold spray.

The Tartelettes on the October 2011 issue of The Transmitter

The Transmitter, a local magazine covering the South East of  London has done a spread on The Tartelettes. The October issue was all about food and luckily with all the wonderful gastronomic influences we have locally we were rather spoiled for choice.

The Tartelettes were featured in their cakes section alongside two other local companies. Our mini fruit tartelette even made the front cover. 

In the main spread we had a layered chocolate & raspberry sponge cake with a strawberry Swiss meringue frosting; mini fruit tartelettes with strawberry Swiss meringue cream; and glorified muffins (afternoon teacakes) with summer berries and dark chocolate with orange zest. Yum yum...

Going Apple crazy

Here at The Tartelettes HQ we are lucky enough to have quite a few apple and pear trees in the garden so we are rather spoiled for choice at this time of the year.

Apple crumble, apple pie, apple upside-down, tart tatin, apple cobbler, spiced apple cake and the list goes on and on and on... Below are just some examples of how we have used apples and pears this year to make and decorate some of our cakes. Enjoy.

West Norwood Feast Market - 7th August 2011
