I’ve finally made it to 300 posts. It was a long road to get here.
I started back in 2006 because I wanted to share recipes with friends. Along the way, I’ve had many great food experiences, enjoyed eating for the sake of my blog and best of all, I’ve connected with lots of wonderful food bloggers. A couple of times I lost my blogging mojo when life got a little busy with work and most importantly my family. However, I got back into it. I can’t stay away too long.
To celebrate, I have eaten cakes for you. I have enjoyed cakes and desserts from The Cheesecake Shop.
I thought the cheesecake shop only had cheesecakes but they offer so much more. I first discovered this at the “A Foodie Affair” event held by 360 Focus PR.
They have a variety of desserts, cakes and treats on offer. They have something for every day treats or a cake for that special celebration.
I have enjoyed the strawberry continental cheesecake. The cheesecake is so light and has a moussey texture. This was a favourite with the family.
The Rocky Road was full of marshmallowy goodness coated in dark chocolate.

The Boston Mudcake was rich and full of chocolate flavour. I thought it would be dense like some mud cakes but this one was actually light.
I got “The Treasure Cake” for my dad’s birthday. The cake is a chocolate Mudcake coated in chocolate frosting and topped with profiteroles and fresh strawberries.
