We love bite-sized food. It's often quick and easy to make, looks cute and can be eaten in only a couple of mouthfuls. Perfect for parties, and when you just a little taste of something naughty, bite-sized bakes are as fun to make as they are to eat.
We've got everything covered: mini loaves, tarts, bite-sized meringues - you're going to love them all. Click through to see our best bite-sized bakes...
Mini raspberry and frangipane tarts
We just love these little frangipane tarts made with fresh raspberries and ground almonds. You can whip up a batch of 24 in just under an hour which makes them ideal make-ahead party treats.

Sugar-free carrot cake bites
Can you believe that these carrot cake bites are sugar-free? Don't worry though, they don't miss out on any flavour thanks to apple purée and sweetener. The grated carrot, sprinkle of ginger and a dash of almond milk make one mouth-watering combo.

Mini cupcakes
Not only do these mini cupcakes look good, they taste good too. Topped with fancy rosewater buttercream and finished with crystallised rose petals and violets to decorate, these delicate cupcakes are just heavenly.

Shrink that classic lemon drizzle into a bite-sized bake with this recipe. Each mini loaf is bursting with a citrusy lemon flavour and topped with a sweet icing to make them even more tempting.

Chocolate and coconut party bites
We just love the fact that you can pop these party bites into your mouth and eat them in one. Made with desiccated coconut, almonds and drizzled in chocolate, you can whip up 25 bites in one batch - handy for parties or a family get together.

Mini meringues
Bake bite-sized meringues then dip them in chocolate and sprinkles to make them look as cute as a button. Serve on small plates or in dessert bowls with more chocolate for dipping - well, you can never have too much chocolate!

Mini quiches
We had to make sure there was a savoury treat in this collection and these baby quiches are up there with the greats. Each bite is bursting with cheese, bacon and a buttery pastry case. They'll be gone in seconds.
Mini Victoria sponges
Ditch that classic Victoria sponge for some bite-sized ones instead. These cute sponges are made just like cupcakes but taken out of the wrapper and cut in half. Sandwiched together with fresh cream and jam, these treats won't very long on the party table.

Mini banana and walnut loaves
