I was just eating some dolly mixtures (they’re my favourite sweet) and thought, hey, I wonder if I could make them myself. Turns out I can, as a recipe exists here.
Also, although it’s not baking, raspberry cordial is being added too. I bought Homemade by Clodagh McKenna the other day, and amongst all the other lovely recipes is one for raspberry cordial, which looks like it’d be a great summer drink, and would also put the raspberries growing in my garden to good use.
Baking commences tomorrow. Watch this space | |

I’m so happy to have found your blog! I’m always excited to find others who are on the same quest as I am. Hopefully we can inspire and help each other!
Hey, great! Yes absolutely we should!
I’d never heard of a dolly mixture before! I’m thinking you aren’t in the US, or maybe just in a different area than me. I’m midwest.
Yeah, I’m not – Cambridge, England is where I’m from 🙂 I think dolly mixtures are a standard English sweet, and so, disappointingly, I guess you probably won’t find them in the US
Guess I’ll have to make them then! 🙂
