Hi there, thanks for dropping by!

I’m Lauren and I started Create Bake Make in 2013 when  I was juggling life with a 16 month old and a newborn (yep we’re crazy!) and it’s my place  to share our favourite recipes along with an insight into my life as a Mum of (now) three boys here in beautiful Brisbane.

 As you can imagine, my life is pretty chaotic, looking after three kids (and one big one!) plus  pursing my freelance recipe development, writing and social media work.  This is why all of the recipes I share here on Create Bake Make all require ingredients which are readily available and are simple to make, even with the kids ‘helping’ you – I promise!

In my spare time (hahaha!) I’m an avid reader (crime and mystery books are my faves), planner addict (because who doesn’t want to be more organised?!) and crochet lover – oh and a cake lover too!

I like to think Create Bake Make is more than another ‘recipe blog’ and it’s instead a familiar place you can come back to, pull up a stool at the bench and have a chat.  Along with family dinner recipes, simple slice recipes and easy lunch box recipes for the kids, you will also find a tips and ideas for around your home and parenting.  You will also notice that I include Thermomix recipes instructions for many of my recipes. We’ve had our Thermomix for over three years now and I really enjoy converting our family favourites – and I even help run a website completely dedicated to Thermomix recipes – you can check out ThermoBliss here!

If you are new to the site, I suggest you start off by checking out my favourite slice recipes, easy family dinners along with some of my most popular recipes such as this Bacon and Cheese Cobb Loaf, Three Ingredient Maltesers Fudge, Spinach and Cheese Rolls and these yummy Chicken, Cheese and Pesto Quesadillas – are you hungry yet?!?
