Sam: 8/10! I really enjoyed making this cake.It was fit for a Queen :)
Sam's First Times is about introducing my husband Sam to the culinary wonders of the world after years of being a picky eater, too scared to try anything beyond chicken, plain pasta and yoghurt for 27 years. Our union has been a collision of worlds, my Hungarian heritage (living in Britain for 20 years now!) and a love of tastes and cuisines from far and wide. This blog is a record of my attempts to introduce my oblivious husband into the wonderful world of food.
