Baked Ricotta Cheesecake
19|08|2017
What do you do when you have left-over lemon curd and ricotta cheese at home? It happens, right? Especially the lemon curd. You throw them together, add in a few other ingredients (all of which are in your pantry) and voila...you have a cheesecake! It looks and tastes every bit like a lemon … Read More

Blood Orange Polenta Cake
17|08|2017
So many ways of making a citrus cake! Because the citrus flavour is deliciously predominant in a recipe it is used in, it is interesting how you can play around the textures by using different ingredients. I've already told you how much I love nuts and oranges together. This time I've added in some … Read More

Blueberry-Misu

Do you guys make anything special on Fridays for the weekend? I don't enjoy spending too much time in the kitchen on the weekend unless I'm hosting a get-together or entertaining. When Rugby season kicks in during the cold months, most of our Saturdays are spent driving the boys and watching them … Read More

Blood Orange Hazelnut Frangipane Tart
7|08|2017
Until last year Blood Orange was this exotic, stunning looking citrus that I had only seen in pictures. Once I figured out where and when to find them, I've literally waited, keeping an eye out for them this year. Who else is crazy about fresh produce like me? And really how amazing is the world … Read More
One Bowl Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting
27|07|2017

I baked this chocolate cake yesterday and I knew I had to share this recipe quickly with you. I always receive heaps of fantastic reviews on my Easy Chocolate Cake with Raspberries (yes, it is the most popular recipe on this blog) but I think I just found something even better, even more decadent and just oozing with choclatey deliciousness. The frosting is a bomb! It tastes like chocolate silk (haha! if there was a term like that) and doesn't have the rich after-taste of the chocolate fudge frosting. And the best part? Its dead easy to make. Both the cake layers and frosting are one bowl, quick mix, simple to assemble and incredibly delicious. I think the fun part is sticking chocolate sprinkles all around the cake. This is a great way of covering any imperfections (if any) in your cake and I did this a lot when I wasn't confident about frosting a cake a few years ago. And it looks like it's ready for a party, doesn't it? If you can't find chocolate sprinkles, just go with grated dark chocolate. It works the same way!

19|07|2017

Delicious scoops of Baileys Original Ice Cream served on warm Churro Bowls that have been dusted with Cinnamon sugar and topped with warm chocolate fudge sauce. Ice Cream Sundae has a new definition! Winter is the perfect time to indulge in comfort food. Food that makes you warm and fuzzy from within and winter a little more bearable. Food that gives you reason to stay indoors, snuggle up near the fireplace or a heater and satisfy those innermost cravings. Food that is a sensational mix of hot and cold, sweet and spicy, crunchy and melt-in-your mouth. Get ready to be blown away people! Ice cream Sundae has a new definition. This is Baileys Original Ice Cream Sundae that is a luxurious blend of Baileys flavoured swirls on velvety smooth Baileys liqueur infused Ice Cream served on warm, bowls of Churros dusted generously with cinnamon sugar.

Paired with this Spanish classic, this is a dessert you will remember forever. The bowls are not difficult to make as long as you follow the … Read More
Raspberry and Pumpkin Mini Cakes
13|07|2017

Autumn came and turned into winter and winter is half-way through. I realized that I haven't made any pumpkin desserts this year. Last Autumn, I discovered the deliciousness called pumpkin in sweeter recipes and had begun to acknowledge its hype around colder months in the Northern Hemisphere. I really wish we had access to pumpkin puree in Australia. Perhaps that is one of the reasons pumpkin cakes are not so popular here. Making the puree took me longer than creating a dessert with it. Well, I am sorted for now, having made a big batch of butternut squash puree yesterday. Gives me a solid reason to take out some every other day and make a pumpkin something. These easy peasy pumpkin mini cakes have nothing complicated or extravagant about them. Just mix and bake. The raspberries were a last minute addition since I was slightly unsure how the pumpkin alone would taste. (Oh goodness, it's been a year since I tasted pumpkin). Logically speaking, chocolate can save any disaster but berries come a close second. So instead of chocolate chips, I threw in a few raspberries. The next few days hopefully you will see a bit more of me on the blog. I have a huge pending list of recipes … Read More
White Chocolate and Strawberry Tart
20|06|2017

Delicious White chocolate and Strawberry tart with a cookie crust and an orange infused white chocolate ganache filling. No baking and easy to put together. Posting after a while now. How has everyone been? I had a lot going on these past few weeks, the first being a house move which I was totally unprepared for. We were renting this place for almost 3 years now when the owner just sold the property. The new owners wanted to move in quickly and we were asked to vacate. With a huge number of commitments and client work already scheduled for the beginning of June, I had no choice but to book the closest available house and move my entire setup into a new place. Since, I could only afford to take the weekend off from work, I figured out that there was no way I could bubble wrap all my stuff, box them and unwrap them later. So I made close to 30 trips back and forth loaded with props, backgrounds and a hundred other things so I could place them in shelves (in the new place) just the way they were before. By Monday, I couldn't move. And then realizing the greatest fear of all, food photographers would relate to. Light!!! The angle and direction of light was entirely different and I … Read More
