Red velvet pancakes | recipe
Bonjour readers!
Would you have guessed that I am a tad bit obsessed with red velevt? My ig is full of cupcakes, pancakes and even macarons which are around the "red velvet " family ..
So today is bank holiday Monday , I woke up motivated, ready to work.. And then I craved something red velvety .. Last week I made some delicious red velevt cupcakes.. The recipe was posted on le blog so check it out.. Is only a couple of blog posts away :)
So anyway this morning instead of revising (my actual goal) I made these gawjus red velvet pancakes in the morning :). So I thought I'd share the recipe with you all : enjoy .. Oh and if you do end up trying it out hash tag ( #jadorevintage_x) so I can see them :)
What you need :
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 Tbsp cocoa powder
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar ( after making one It wasn't sweet enough for me, so i added more to taste.. )
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 Tbsp red food coloring
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup salted butter, melted
Method :
To be honest I just dumped all the dry ingredients together and then the wets ones. Lol mix well - make sure theres no lumps ;)
After that get a small frying pan and butter it up .. And cook them up :)
Oh enjoy these babies with some basic cream cheese frosting or even my personal fave : NUTELLA !!! Mwa x

Daily essentials | updated
Bonjour readers!
My life consists of serious studying and teaching. However I always have to make time to express my love for makeup ( on My face) now come off it yeah, we all have them no "makeup" chilling in my sweatpants day .. Lol oh wait .. Maybe not..
So like I mentioned before I am always busy , but still always have to look after my skin, it's essential :)
So here's just a quick over view of my recent "go to products" . Nothing fancy just simple .. Enjoy :
1- for the face it has to be My Elizabeth Arden 8 hour daily cream (for the face) - totally love this suff, it goes on the face smoothly, not greasy at all! And looks refreshing, also I have very dry skin sometimes and this works like a charm!
2- my YSL false lash effect mascara . LOVE ! It's my fave mascara ever , perfect even in the first coat. To be honest I never really used to wear much mascara before but I've lately been rocking the full lashes look .. And it's working well for me ;)
3- working around , cleaning , typing and writing my hands are going through a lot, and I get horrible dry patches on My knuckle area.. My recent handcream love? This Vaseline one that i got from my recent trip to KSA- not foud of the cream smell.. But works amazingly well.. Blends in to skin like butter and it's cheap as chips!
4- lastly its something for the lips- I suffer from a lot of dry stuff going on My face- including chapped lips . So I've been testing the "body shop lip butters" and yes it works as the name! Like butter ! Glides on well and smells amazing ! Like butter cream ! Ahhh it's gawjus ! And it's very moisturizing for the lips! ahh #jadore <3
Thats all for today readers! Hope
You enjoyed this post ,, until next time x

The secret told | red velvet cake
Bonjour readers!
If you follow me instagram (@jadorevintage_x) you would have already guessed that I totally LOVE red velvet cake :) and who wouldn't ? It's red! And it's cake..
But if you have been a follower of my blog and stuff you will already know that My baking skills are zero. Yes zilch ! I am
Horrible at it, and trust me even instant cake mixes don't work for me.. I have tried and failed many many times. And
This yeah I promised my self I wouldn't go near baking at all. Nope. What was the point? I'd put My heart and soul into baking and then what ? Flop. Totally misery and frankly story of My bloody life :(
But anyway last week I posted a picture of these babies :
And many of you said they looked amazing and wanted the recipe .. So here it is :
3 eggs
A few table spoons of oil
Water
AND :
, I can assure you of that, BUT, this one Alhumdulillah worked out for me. Like a charm. I was very skeptical about
Buying this in the first place .. But I though what they hey, I love red velvet cake, and I dont really have anyone close to me that can make it for me so might as well try it my self :)
And yes readers . A pack of Betty Crocker has got me smiling since the day I made theses babies..
And that's the secret,you guys wanted to know how I made them , I know
It's a little cheeky but hey at least I told you the truth ;)
That's all for now readers , you must try this Betty Crocker cake recipe, it's totally amazing and moist :) my friends and family loved them
And couldn't believe I didn't mess up .. Alhumdulillah oh you can find them at Asda, tesco or any other large supermarket
