[NZ House & Garden]( Hi {NAME}, There’s something utterly therapeutic about the ritual of baking – the simplicity of butter, sugar, eggs and flour laid out on the kitchen bench, the hypnotic movement of beaters rippling through batter, the unmistakable scent of baked goods slowly but surely turning golden brown in the oven. While the process of baking can bring a great sense of satisfaction to the cook, the results seem to have an almost magical ability to spread joy and soothe the minds of eaters, as well. In our latest issue, Maite Paternain shares some truly delightful sweet recipes guaranteed to transform ordinary ingredients into extraordinary baked delights, while filling the house with mouth-watering aromas at the same time. You don’t really even need an excuse or reason to bake these treats, as they would be delicious for any occasion, big or small. Make them for your family and friends, serve simply with a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy the moment.

The hailstorm in Hawke's Bay last September was a further setback, as many hail-scarred apples failed to meet cosmetic standards demanded by supermarkets. Rather than let good food go to waste, the Hailstone Hero idea aims to help growers get perfectly delicious but slightly imperfect apples to consumers, at an affordable price. Despite their external appearance, these Yummy SweeTango™ apples are delicious on the inside and favoured by many due to their exceptional sweetness and loud crunch. They make a healthy, affordable snack and are good cooking apples too. $5.99 per 2kg pack from supermarkets.
