As we reach the end of Coeliac Awareness Month, I'd like to say a massive thank you to two of my biggest cheerleaders: my dear mother and my wonderful husband. The parents and partners of people with coeliac disease have to deal with a lot: my mum spent many years worrying about her very poorly teenage daughter, not knowing how to get her better (I was finally diagnosed aged 33!) and has since thrown herself into adapting recipes to be safe for me to eat at family gatherings. And my Olivier has been unwavering in his support from the day we met, embracing eating gluten-free at home to avoid cross-contamination, spending hours researching gluten-free restaurants whenever planning a family trip, and encouraging me in my micro-bakery venture (as well as providing much practical tech support and conquering mountains of washing up!). Navigating coeliac disease is certainly a family effort: here's to my gang, who were out in force helping at the tea party for Coeliac UK earlier this month, and to all family members who do so much to support their loved ones who have this disease.

This time last weekend, I was frantically baking for the charity tea party for Coeliac UK (boy, am I glad it wasn’t as hot as it is today!), which I hosted as part of Coeliac UK's 64 Challenge. The youngest member of FFK was very keen that I follow this challenge to the letter by baking precisely 64 scones, 64 cupcakes and 64 biscuits, to highlight the fact that, while 1 in 100 people in the UK have coeliac disease, 64% of this group are currently undiagnosed, often while suffering from debilitating symptoms. I believe I was in this 64% for 17 years between first showing symptoms and getting a diagnosis... which was certainly less than ideal.

Coeliac UK are doing great work raising awareness to try to drive down this percentage of undiagnosed people, while also supporting those diagnosed, and funding research initiatives for this disease. The tea party raised an incredible £700 for their work – thank you so much again to everyone who donated!

Getting back to my 64 scones, 64 cupcakes and 64 biscuits… we won’t tell the 9 year old that scaling the batches to this precise number was beyond my maths skills and I may have baked a bit more than that… we had to have some spare for taste-testing, right?!

Wow, what a fantastic afternoon we had in Horningsea at the charity tea party for Coeliac UK today! The sun shone (against the odds), the children had fun racing round the village green, and much tea and cake was consumed. Thank you so much for all your very generous donations, and especially to those who so kindly contributed delicious gluten free bakes: Julia, Lottie, Heather, Neil, Borris, Prakash, and, of course, the incredible Belle's GF Bakes. Huge thanks, too, to my wonderful posse of helpers, without whom this event would not have been possible: Mary, Mim, Suzi, Hélène, Jayne, Emma, Helen, Tijana, Tom, Olivier and Benoît.
We raised over £600 today, which is absolutely amazing!

A sneak peak at the line up for tomorrow's tea party for Coeliac UK... Getting excited! Massive thanks to everyone who is baking and, especially, to Belle's GF Bakes , Neil and Borris for pulling some extra bakes out of the hat at the 11th hour!

It's been a long day in the kitchen today, baking for the charity tea party for Coeliac UK tomorrow... which feels a very appropriate way to have spent the day, as today is International Coeliac Awareness Day. Putting my feet up for a moment to admire the youngest member of Fen Family Kitchen's contribution to the tea party: a Lego cutlery holder in Coeliac UK's vibrant orange! I think we may need a few more spoons tomorrow, but it's a great start! 🤗🤗

I had a very special volunteer helping me prep for the charity tea party for Coeliac UK on her day off, today... she is more usually to be found baking Cambridge's most famous Chelsea buns! Huge thanks to Gill for her time, wisdom and support today.

Fabulous to see everyone for collection yesterday. Freshly baked, fragrant cinnamon buns, focaccia, baguettes and artisan white loaves all flew out of the door alongside our well-loved frozen bakes... and I squeezed in a small batch of plain scones for taste-testing in preparation for next Sunday's tea party for Coeliac UK. Now I need to turn my mind to this event in earnest!
