3 simple one-tin bakes to make when sugar cravings strike

No matter what CleanTok has to say, we can all agree that whether you love to cook or are reaching for your phone’s delivery app multiple times a week, the worst part of any meal is the washing up afterwards. And the same can most definitely be said when it comes to baking. There are few better things than a freshly baked slice of something to go along with your 11am cuppa or to beat the 3pm work slump, but who wants to be left with mountains of mixing bowls, whisks and tins when all you wanted was a chocolate brownie?

Here to take the faff out of baking – and ensure that our sweet cravings are always more than sated – is food writer and blogger Jane Dunn and her latest release Jane’s Patisserie Easy Favourites. Featuring simple recipes that either take 30 minutes or less, use just five ingredients, are guaranteed crowd-pleasers or yield a small batch, the bakes all aim to take the stress out of being in the kitchen. And because we all know that while folding, whipping and mixing can be enjoyable, scrubbing a sink full of washing up never is – so these three easy bakes use just one tin.

Looking for a ‘for every occasion’ dress? These are 11 of the best bandeau styles for the job

Any avid Stylist reader will know by now how much we love a dress. Drop-waist, bubble-hem and white cotton nightgowns are just a handful of styles we’ve leaned into this season, but a good ol’ faithful is rising up again in popularity as an elegant yet effortless pick for summer: bandeau dresses. 

And the strapless style works for (almost) any occasion. Loose-fitting, floaty styles are perfect for beach strolls, especially when paired with flip-flops. Denim designs add a more casual twist and micro minis are best reserved for evenings out and long nights of dancing, especially while on holiday. Plus, there’s no need to faff around with too-tight straps or those that fall off your shoulders. Keep reading to see 11 of our favourites.
