To help get you in the baking mood, we catch up with Baking Explorer<\/a> Kat Buckley to find out the best recipes to seek out in September as well as which ones are less likely to get a Paul Hollywood Handshake. <\/strong><\/p>\n

What keeps you passionate about baking and blogging about it? <\/span><\/strong>
\nAll the wonderful comments and kind feedback from my readers, seeing how much joy and happiness it brings them to make my recipes \u2013 that’s the stuff that makes what I do worthwhile.<\/p>\n

How have you had to change your approach to blogging, or your content, during the COVID-19 crisis? <\/span><\/strong>
\nI asked my followers and they were happy for me to carry on as normal, even if they couldn’t get the ingredients to bake my recipes they said that they liked seeing nice photos of cakes as it made them happy. I’ve shared lots of my recipes that use pantry staples, or don’t need a common ingredient like eggs for example, to try and help people struggling to bake with few ingredients.<\/p>\n

Have you tried any of the recipes that have gone viral\/been popular during lockdown? <\/span><\/strong>
\nI made some dalgona coffee for my boyfriend (I don’t drink coffee) and he loved it!<\/p>\n

What the worst bake you\u2019ve ever attempted to make?<\/span><\/strong>
\nA tarte tatin, I’ve tried to make it a few times, although not for a while. I’ve burnt it, made the caramel hard as rock and messed up the pastry!!<\/p>\n

Best tasting thing you\u2019ve ever made?<\/span><\/strong>
\nMy favourite cake of all time is my Chocolate Guinness Cake with Baileys Buttercream, but I also love anything chocolate orange!<\/p>\n

For those who haven\u2019t yet started baking, which basic tools would you suggest they stock the kitchen up with? <\/span><\/strong>
\nDigital kitchen scales, silicone spatulas and a decorating turntable.<\/p>\n

Favourite TV chefs? <\/span><\/strong>
\nMary Berry will forever be the queen of baking!<\/p>\n

How do you collaborate with brands and which kind of brands do you really like working with? <\/span><\/strong>
\nI love working with brands that have a passion for baking! I most often do sponsored blog posts as I love to create new recipes the showcase all the fabulous baking products and ingredients out there.<\/p>\n

For PRs looking to work with you and your blog\/website, how would you prefer they approach you and with what kind of content?<\/span><\/strong>
\nBy email, and with anything to do with baking!<\/p>\n

What other blogs do you check out regularly (whether baking-related or not)? <\/span><\/strong>
\nI love Easy Cheesy Vegetarian<\/a> for meal inspiration and ideas.<\/p>\n
