    Hi there,
    I just love your recipes, but whenever I go to print one out, the page is blank. Any suggestions? It may just be a settings error on my computer, but I’m not sure where to look. For example, the page is blank except the very last line at the bottom saying – Mezze-platter or lemon drop cupcakes.
    Thanks for your help, in advance.
    Cheers
    Tamara

      Hi Tamara, we are very sorry about this! Our team is working hard to get this issue fixed, however it is still taking some time. I have sent you an email with the truffle recipe as a PDF document that you can print. I would also be happy to do this for any other recipes you would like 🙂
