MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS WEEK 2021
When we went on the hunt for organisations to support, a key criteria for us was that they made an impact in the mental health space. This is because it is something that is very close to home, so to speak.

HAVING OUR CAKE AND EATING IT TOO
We love glamour and glitz and a bit of sparkle, but we also love the planet and look to be as sustainable as we can with what we do at Sugar Lips.

RECIPE: SPRINKLE FUNFETTI CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Hey sprinkle lovers! We're back with the ultimate easy, but delicious, sprinkle chocolate chip cookie recipe we're loving at the moment. It's been a much needed isolation baking treat here in lockdown. Seriously, this is the cookie recipe you need right now!
OK, so other recipes that call for creaming butter, etc give pretty great results, but right now we're all about quick, easy, one bowl recipes that don't require us to get out an electric mixer. Heck, you can make these with a toddler clinging onto your leg whinging and moaning (tested and proved) or supervise your kids making them without having a complete meltdown!
