If you live around Brisbane you might have heard about Digella's campaign to bake either a Fruit Cake or Anzac Biscuits for transport and distribution over the weekend to farming families doing it tough - to show support for our Aussie Farmers this Valentine's Day.
It's not too late to whip up a batch of Anzac biscuits - so check out the her website or FaceBook for a collection spot near you.

I used my "Christmas Cake - Nearly as Good as Nan's" which includes a decent drop of Queensland's Bundaberg Rum

made sure I used Australian ingredients (apart from the spices) and made 6 cakes that I packed snugly in cute boxes with a tea-towel, a personal note and some Bushell's tea - all tied up with string for their long journey to a farming community. Hope they pass muster!
Update: Digella has announced they are doing another collection in early March so check out FaceBook and send some love to the west!
Guard dog on cake duty! (This was her photo-bomb moment!)
Cheers! Colleen
