I can’t believe tomorrow is Christmas Day! If anyone is looking for something simple to serve to family and friends over the next few days then I’d highly recommend you give these Prosecco, elderflower and berry jellies a try. I made a trial batch of these festive jellies by Jamie Oliver last week and they […]
Today is the 20th of the month. Not only does this mean it’s only five days left until Christmas, but it also marks the start of my week long holiday down the coast with my family. A week relaxing by the beach and spending time with those I hold dear to my heart… Perfection! Speaking […]
Happy Friday people! So I have a wonderful little treat for you all to finish the week with… these gorgeous, bite sized Lemon meringue tartlets. The tangy goodness of the lemon curd encased in gorgeous, buttery shortcrust pasty and topped with sweet Italian meringue is what makes this such a classic combination, not to mention […]
I’m so pleased to announce that I’ve teamed up with a bunch of talented and enthusiastic bakers from around the globe called the Cake Slice Bakers. On the 20th of every month, members of our little baking group will reveal a ‘mystery’ cake from a recipe book we’ll be baking our way through over the […]

And so it was inevitable that when I came across the recipe for these gorgeous White chocolate and raspberry […]
I’ve been having fun baking batches of an assortment of sweet tarts these last couple of weeks. It all started with a batch of mini lemon meringue tarts and it’s sort of mushroomed since then. My first batch was a little underwhelming. You see, I was a little short on time so thought I’d cheat […]
I’ve recently been reunited with one of my favourite cookbooks, Ottolenghi: The Cookbook and it’s only now that I have it back within arms reach that I realise exactly how much I’ve missed this book, and the treasure trove of recipes it contains. I bought the book shortly after it’s release back in 2008 while […]
Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. Don’t you agree? I first came across a picture of a Chocolate cloud cake years ago and fell instantly in love with its heavenly looks. Its whimsical name also charmed me. I’d never heard of a Chocolate cloud cake before and I immediately dreamed of a divinely […]
