Jocelyn's Provisions Is Now Selling Choc Chip Cookie Dough That You Can Bake at Home

Perhaps you're fond of crusty sourdough with your breakfast or brunch. Maybe you have a sweet tooth for cakes, muffins and brownies. Either way, with everyone presently spending more time at home — and zero time eating out at bakeries and cafes — we're betting that you've probably cranked up your oven and put your baking skills to the test in recent weeks.

Next time you get creative in the kitchen, however, you don't just have to stick to a packet mix or try out the recipe on the back of your packet of flour. And if you've been craving treats from one of Brisbane's favourite spots for tasty baked goods, you don't have to miss out. Adapting to the current situation, Jocelyn's Provisions is now selling 'take & bake' kits, which'll let you whip up some of its wares yourself.

For folks who can't resist the smell of baking cookies wafting through the house, the choc chip cookie dough kit ($18.50) features 500 grams of ready-to-bake cookie dough — which is enough to make 24 cookies. And for those who are fine with leaving the baking to the experts, but would love to get crafty with icing, the cupcake decorating kit ($22.50) comes with six vanilla cupcakes, piping bags filled with raspberry and vanilla icing, and edible pink and gold decorations.

Both kits are available for pick up only — with orders taken online, and collection available from Jocelyn's Provisions' stores on Sandgate Road in Albion, James Street in New Farm and Samuel Street in Camp Hill.

Jocelyn's is also selling its regular range for takeaway and delivery, as well as a weekly selection of take home meals — with the current menu, at the time of writing, featuring cacio e pepe spaghetti and tomato and bacon pasta for two ($16.90 each); minestrone soup with a mini garlic bread, which also serves two ($23.50); garlic, fresh herb and parmesan sourdough that'll cater for between four and six ($18.50); and a four-person classic beef lasagne ($48.50).
