Mini Pistachio Cakes
Nothing beats the beautiful colour and unforgettable flavour of pistachios. Paired with rosewater, it can create a treat that is divine. The Mini Pistachio Cake recipe involves creating the pistachio cakes first, then coating them in white chocolate that gives it the lustrous shine and gorgeous green colour. Pistachios have been my favourite nut since childhood. They were present abundantly in both sweet and savoury dishes but I Ioved them the most in ice cream. the flavour was known as 'kesar pista' meaning saffron pistachio ice cream. Oh the beautiful taste, takes me on a walk down memry lane! Even a sprinkle of chopped pistachio is a dish adds flair and colour. These pistachio cakes are pretty simple to make if you can get hold of a sillicone mold. A sillicon muffin mold will work as well even if you don't find it in the fluted shape.

Blueberry Ricotta Cake
Cake or Cheesecake, which one do you love? What if you could have something in between? This blueberry ricotta cake is just that. It has a soft, moist texture dense enough but not creamy like a cheesecake. Fresh blueberries add a burst of sweetness while the addition of citrus zest adds flavour and freshness. It is truly such a delicious combination. It' not only a very simple cake to make where everything is pretty much mixed in one bowl, I've kept the frosting simple by using whipped cream. It looks so colourful but it is basically just whipped cream, part of which is colored and then piped onto the cake. A simple dusting of icing sugar would work as well if a frosting is not your thing.

Blood Orange Olive Oil Cake
It's probably a good thing that blood oranges aren't available all year or I would be baking three blood orange cakes every week. They are just the most beautiful citrus fruits to cook/bake and eat, not to metion how beautiful they are to look. This blood orange olive oil cake is light, bright and refreshing. The cake like any olive oil cake, is light, full of texture from the almonds with a subtle flavour of citrus. Hoever, it is the glaze that makes the cake so special. There is no colour added to it. The bright pink colour comes from the blood orange juice. It is just about spring here in Austraila and the trees look spectalcular with blossoms adorning every corner of my neighbourhood. They made the perfect decoration fo this cake. PS : If you're using fresh flowers on a cake, make sure the stems are either covered or you place a piece of baking paper between the flowers and the cake. Unless of course you are sure that they are suitable for consumption.

Blood Orange Cheesecake
It's blood orange season in Australia. The best time of the year since it's also beginning to look like spring. How bloody amazing are blood oranges! I wish they didn't have such a short season and I could come up with a hundred recipes. That may be difficult but this one recipe of Blood Orange Cheesecake makes up for everything. It is absolutely DIVINE to taste. This is a baked cheesecake with a biscuit crust a blood orange infused filling and blood orange jelly on the top made from freshly squeezed oranges. The smooth and creamy filling is balanced out beautifully by the strong citrus notes in the jelly. And for an outcome so amazing, there is barely any effort. All the layers can be made ahead and assembled later. The cheesecake takes a bit of time in the oven (first cooking, then cooling) and you need loads of patience to not slice it already. Needless to say, if blood oranges are not in season, you could go with regular oranges. The only thing to be mindful of is the sweetness of your oranges. Adjust the sweetness in the jelly as required. If you love blood oranges, don't forget to check out my Blood orange Olive Oil Cake Here is a fabulous Ricotta … Read More
