Chocolate and Orange Madeleines
Who doesn't love a madeleine? These light airy french treats, fall between a cake and a cookie. There are many madeleine recipes on my blog but the classic combination of Chocolate and Orange Madeleines has to be my favourite. Bursting with the flavour of zesty oranges while you bite into a crisp dark chocolate exterior, these chocolate and orange madeleines are not only perfect for afternoon tea or a ladies gathering, but they're the most beautiful edible gifts that can be created in your kitchen. As always, I've used sillicone molds for the beautiful shape. They are so easy to make and unmold. They don't stick to the mold and fall out easily with a smooth shine on the surface.

Blueberry Friands/Financiers
Egg whites are never wasted at my place because the quickest, easist and most delicious way to use them up is my baking friands. Blueberry friands are by far the favourite at home. If you've never heard of friands, they are nothing but french financiers. They are popularly known as friands in Australia. There are barely any cafes that don't sell them in Sydney and I love having them with my coffee. These blueberry friands obviously don't look like the traditional ones that are larger in size. These are coated in white chocolate and made in special molds to create the heart shapes. You could bake them in a muffin pan too and leave out the coating if you're after a tea cake sort of thing. The coating of course elevates the apperance and gives it a fancy high-tea look. The white chocolate layer also complements the juicy blueberries within the friands.

Banana Malteser Cake
I've had a glut of bananas at home this season. Everyone was snacking on peaches and berries and the poor bananas were neglected. I have enough banana recipes on the blog so I wasn't intending on creating another one but this was so good. Who knew just the addition of crunchy maltesers in this Banana Malteser Cake would make such a delicious difference. The other reason why I made the Banana Malteser Cake was to experiment making beautiful buttercream designs using silicone molds. If you follow me on Instagram, you may have noticed that I've tried this method on cupcakes and they turned out amazing. It was time to try out a design on a cake. all I did was spread buttercream in the mold, smoothen the surface with an offset spatuala, then freeze the mold with the buttercream in it. Once set, all you do is you unmold and place it on the cake. in case you're wondering, it doesn't alter the taste or texture and retains the shape really well. You are of course, free to pipe buttercream as an alternative or decorate as you like. I used this mold for the design on the top.
