I’m always on the hunt for interesting dairy free foods for Cameron – I am never particularly inspired by the offerings of the free from section in my local supermarkets so regularly cast my eye along each and every shelf in each and every aisle as I shop, constantly on the lookout for something new; … Continue reading
Happy Dairy Free Birthday!
Cameron turned 14 a few days ago and I discovered these great chocolate letters and numbers from Silver Spoon to decorate his cake with – always a bonus to find something that is dairy free to use!
