October is officially here which means burnt reds, oranges and yellows are quickly taking over the leafy greens of summer. Though this is, perhaps, the biggest change when we look through our window here at Juniper Cakery HQ there are also notable changes being made in the food and baking world too. The thought of warming seasoned fruits, soups and desserts have inspired this month’s recipe which is to be a spiced apple cake!

The bittersweet taste of apple and their deep reds and autumnal greens are perfect for this time of year. Their traditional, and much loved, pairing with cinnamon, clove, nutmeg and allspice creates a warm, homemade feel perfect for getting cosy in the coming blustery months.
