Just to touch on some concerns some people have expressed - we aren't aiming for "perfect" creations, it's meant to be fun, so don't be shy! You don't have to invent the recipe yourself - you can put your own twist on a recipe or follow it to the letter - remember, as long as you make it, and it's edible then you can enter it. Also - people from countries outside the UK are welcome to join in too.
Without further ado, I will announce that the Home Baked Challenge theme for January is: Frost!
So that could be very literally, something that resembles the frost, something frosted, something frozen, something with the word "frost" on it... or something else completely! You are such a creative bunch, I know you will come up with great ways to interpret the theme.
It might even be a good opportunity to use up some edible glitter you may have bought for the festive season. The dictionary definition comes up with a few ideas, but don't feel you have to stick to the rigid meaning.
I see the joy of the challenge really being in the creative process and sharing as a community of home cooks rather than being fiercely competitive.
Your submissions need to be uploaded to the flickr group or sent to me at homebakedonline at gmail dot com
Remember to include a photo, a description and a link to your own blog (if you have one).
