Would you risk it for a chocolate biscuit? Probably not, but for one of these exquisitely iced biscuits, I just might.
I've had a preeeetty good weekend this past weekend - I went to see Aladdin (AMAZING), had a Sunday roast that turned into a Sunday session (also AMAZING), but it all started off last Thursday with a little trip to Biscuiteers in Clapham for a biscuit icing class.
Now I love baking, but I've never been much into the icing side of things - I mean whats the point, usually the stuff I bake is eaten in 10 seconds flat (usually by me), and it also just seemed so fiddly and precious, plus I don't even eat icing anyway. So icing usually doesn't do it for me, but I do love the way it looks.
And THEN. I was invited to this little icing class by a friend of mine from college, and it was amazing! The Biscuiteers shop itself is so pretty, the most instagrammable place I've ever been I think, full to the brim with amazing iced biscuits with different themes - my favourite being a little iced lobster with the quote "you're my lobster!".
They offer you pretty much unlimited prosecco and the tastiest carrot cake EVER, while you sit at a marble counter and ice 5 different biscuits over the space of an hour and a half. The girls working and instructing are so nice and friendly, and our instructor Leonor was really lovely and helpful! Yes I was a soppy romantic and made two with my boyfriend in mind, but you can use any colour and write any message you like on all the biscuits. I have to say the bird is my favourite though!
