  • Lemon and poppyseed muffins would have to be a favourite muffin flavour – thanks.


    • Ooo I haven’t tried lemon and poppyseed but I love lemon icing on baked treats, so I’ll have to try lemon and poppyseed combo next!!! Thank you!!!!



      • Oops! I should have written orange and not lemon! I was using lemon in my cooking and my brain registered lemon! I love orange and poppyseed muffins! Like you – I do love lemon icing too – it is a favourite on slices. I might try lemon too – let’s see how it goes? :)
