dessert and pudding

Lavender Ice Cream is so heady with the wonderful scent and flavour of lavender it is summer on a plate. Lavender is such a relaxing scent which makes this the perfect end of the day desert to relax with. I first encountered the amazing the scent and beauty of lavender flowers and hedges on a […]

Blueberry Polenta Muffins are brilliant because: a) they are easy-peasy b) you can make them with sweet, popping with flavour, seasonal blueberries c) you can make them with frozen blueberries when you want the sun to shine on you in December.

Sometimes you just want a little bit of sweet stuff. And if you are going to have some sweet stuff… Make it good! These Chocolate and Raspberry Goodness Muffins aren’t just sweet stuff, they are delicious and full of protein and goodness (fruit, oats, polenta, almonds…).

And it has that flavour that you just aren’t sure where it comes from (the delectable combination of baked sugar and fat). Shortbread is unmistakable in texture and flavour and is perfect with […]

These are my dream biscuits: crunchy, spicy with ginger, great with a cup of tea AND gluten-free and vegan. What more do I want? What more do you want? I bring you my Crunchy Gluten-Free, Vegan, Ginger Oat Biscuits.

I love Roasted Rhubarb with Crumble Topping served with gluten free, vegan ice cream. It is easy to bake, easy to put together and looks incredible. It is a perfect dinner party dessert that you can make the day before and put together in minutes.
