Apologies for the sound quality in this podcast. We, unfortunately, had very intermittent internet reception which effected the recording.

This week we are re-releasing an old episode. We decided we wanted to do an updated episode of baking hints and tips, and in the process listened back to Episode 29. We both enjoyed it so much, and know you can't get hold of it on Spotify anymore, that we thought a re-release was needed.

Our updated episode will be released next week.
