Write about your most epic baking or cooking fail.
My epic bake fail happened as we were packing last May to go to Cornwall on a caravanning holiday.
I’d got up early to make some muffins so we could have some to eat on the journey and some to eat for the first few days of our holiday.
I made them with any ingredients that might have gone off while we were away ,so like the good little recycler I am,when I’d finished the cupboards and fridge were bare.
The cakes after coming out of the oven cooled nicely on their wire tray and I packed them in a large pink tupperware box ready to put in the car.
Then disaster struck, everything was packed except the cakes.They stayed on the kitchen table for the whole of the two weeks we were away.
It was torture on the journey down knowing the cakes were not with us,as I do make nice cakes. Looking at the selection in the service station made me even more unhappy as they were full of sugar and additives.
Then there wasn’t that welcoming bun with a cup of tea when we set up the caravan,all in all it was a crushing reminder of my forgetfulness.
When we got back ,the buns were just developing mould and sadly I tipped the whole beautiful box into the food recycling.
I was so heartbroken,at first I said never again,but after having been exposed to service station food,I think I have to be brave and try again.
