Hot on the heels of their 2020 trend report in Episode 159, Stefin and Andrea are happy to see Australian vanilla company Queen’s baking trend report, and even happier that Preheated is right on trend, or planning to be, in the coming months.

This week’s bake along will suit anyone in need of quick and delicious comfort … Nigella’s Emergency Brownies serve two (or one if you’re in truly dire straits). Bake along, if you’re in crisis or not! Finally, Stefin reports on her pastéis de natas class in Lisbon, and admits to eating an entire wreath of bolo-rei in Porto, when the Globetrotting Gourmet heads to Portugal.

The end of the year is fast approaching, so Stefin and Andrea want to hear Preheaters’ recommendations for the #20for20 baking resolutions. Will they include making or eating a Spudnut?

In the first episode of December’s Confection Affection month, Stefin has an update on Costa Coffee’s Biscoff Muffin.
