Snow and more rain is forecast for the weekend, so what is required to lift spirits is chocolate cake.<\/p>\n

\"Chocolate<\/a>
Chocolate Cake from the Grange Bakery<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The skies are starting to darken once again and the lights have been switched as the two leggers put the kettle on and cut a large slice of sticky chocolate cake.<\/p>\n

Dad purchased this cake yesterday at an event in the Lake District and it has been sitting, all tempting and lickylishous overnight, on the worktop in the kitchen.<\/p>\n

It is made by a small company in South Cumbria called Grange Bakery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to their website, the current owners,\u00a0Julia Sayburn and Paul Hughes, purchased the bakery in 2007.<\/p>\n

Bread seems to be their major product, cooked in an oven said to be around 80 years old. They think this may be one of the oldest Trap ovens in the country.<\/p>\n

Reading the\u00a0Twitter feed<\/a> for The Grange Bakery the addition of a chocolate cake to the list of products took place at the end of January, when they taste tested the chocolate. \u00a0I wish I could have been there to help, just think of all those licky bowls.<\/p>\n

Sadly no Twitter updates have been posted since then, so we do not know which chocolate they chose.<\/p>\n

Caution<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mum has just shouted over to us that we should mention that chocolate is not very good for dogs as it can make us ill. Personally, \u00a0I think mum is trying to keep all the cake for herself. However, for this reason we are only allowed a few crumbs.<\/p>\n

Why is it that nice things are not good for us?<\/p>\n

Until next time<\/p>\n
