Adsa GF brownie mix

I'm working my way through the new Asda range. The cake mix was a success and so are the brownies!

I added white chocolate chips but it does have milk chocolate ones in there already... I just love chocolate hehe.

They went down well. Made them yesterday evening and there are only 4 left this morning.

Light and fluffy but perfectly gooey like a good brownie should be :) really nice flavour as well. I'm always impressed when a GF cake doesn't taste gluten free.

I'm very impressed with Asda and their new range. Really seem to be trying to improve and expand their range.

Adsa GF cake mix with a facelift

Another cake made with the Asda cake mix. Decided to add chocolate fudge frosting and make it three layers.

I used 2 boxes and divided it into three. Covered each layer and then the whole cake in the frosting.

It was a hit :) excellent cake mix for a quick and easy GF cake. So spongy and hold its shape unlike some mixes which have been crumbly. Lovely taste too!

La Tasca revisited

Went back to La Tasca. Such a lovely place, stress free and gluten free :) perfect!

I usually skip dessert at restaurants because all I can usually have is the ice cream, but I thought I would have a look. My gosh the choice! No separate menu or bits taken off to make it GF. Just there on the menu for everyone. I was so happy!

I got a chocolate and toffee tart and my boyfriend got a chocolate pudding that was all gooey in the middle. I kept saying... 'are you sure this is gluten free?' I was amazed at how good it was and no fuss at all... that's the best bit for me. It can be a trauma eating out at times.

Another excellent La Tasca experience :)

Asda GF cake mix

I don't usually use pre made cake mixes but my gluten free cake making has been rather hit and miss so
I thought I would give it a try.

Asda seem to have had a bit of a gluten free section revival, lots of new things added. They also had chocolate brownie mix which will be next on the list of things to try.

So this cake mix was £1.80 which I thought was pretty good. I then realised it would make a tiny cake... who wants a tiny cake!? Not me, so I bought another box. I found one box made enough mix to fill an 8 inch cake tin.

I put raspberry jam and vanilla frosting in mine. The warm weather made it a little melty but it turned out well. The cake itself was so light and fluffy. My non-gluten free family were amazed at the flavour. 
Very scrummy!

Half the cake was gone before I knew it... the rest went into the fridge so it would stop melting in this weather.

I would definitely recommend this cake mix... but buy a box per cake layer.
