What went on in September

Hello again Reader,

It's the final quarter of the year, and the start of the most hectic time of year for baking and celebrating. Still, I believe our monthly roundup is a must-read 😉

This month brought several new recipes, some updates and what the team and I baked, as usual.

Whatever season it is where you are, let's recap what went on this month.
