  1. triple chocolate gluten free cake! I do indeed love real dessert!

    I haven’t baked in weeks and probably won’t start today, but why are these quizzes just so satisfying? literally what is it about being like, ‘yes mmhmm that chair just *is* me, correct’ that is so fun?

  2. Quiz + recipes, yesss! I didn’t expect vegan sausage rolls, but honestly – yeah! Thanks for this, I do want to give those a try!

  3. I love these quiz+recipes! I am the incredible-sounding chai sunflower cakes and I am going to have to make myself immediately

  4. I got nussecken, the description is pretty spot on even if I am not sure the recipe is really for me. I am very curious to see all the other options and hopefully get some good recipe inspiration

  5. love this! my most recent bake was an absolute abomination of a box mix that came out radioactive blue, so triple chocolate gf cake sounds much better!

    • Ok I need to know what you were trying to make that came out radioactive blue, presumably accidentally?

      • so it was supposed to be blue! blue velvet cake specifically. i expected a nice dark blue because when i make it from scratch that’s the shade! this looked like an early 2000s web design by way of smurf

  6. I had never heard of nussecken before but I would absolutely make that and stuff it in my face while hiking

  7. I got nussecken, which sounds like it would be good if I weren’t allergic to hazelnuts! I wonder if almonds would work?

  8. I clicked on mine and was like “of COURSE it’s Crystelle’s. I am Crystelle in every sense except being as good at baking and being Portugese-Goan” (or as pretty)

  9. Somehow I held off on getting Into Baking for two whole years but the itch started a couple weeks ago, so your timing is excellent! Also I love scones so those cheese and chive ones should be fun
