I’ve always been fascinated by mille feuille.  I always marvelled at how delicate and light they look in bakery displays – but I don’t believe I’ve ever had one before.  Luckily, I was able to make a gluten free, dairy free version of them for this week’s GBBO challenge! Yummy pastry.  It was patisserie week […]

The first time I heard about a frangipane tart, I was completely confused because I thought it was a tart made with frangipani (plumeria) flowers!  Instead, imagine my surprise when I found out that it was a sweet, almond based filling for apie.  Well, technically, I didn’t hear about it until I found a chocolate […]

At a recent gluten free baking class that I chose to take, the instructor shook her head vehemently and went “just trust me, you can’t make choux pastry gluten free”.  If you know me, I took that on as a challenge – and when I saw that the Great British Bake Off was doing a […]

The ladies in my family are very much picky about our cheesecakes.  When I ate dairy (and berries..um and gluten), the king of cheesecakes that we made in our house was just a fairly simple, yet divine no-bake cherry cheesecake.  The recipe which is still, to this day, kept secret within the famiy.  (Except that […]

Let’s talk biscotti.  If you google the word “biscotti” you will see everyone saying that the word “biscotti” means twice baked – and that’s true, but if you ask an Italian about real biscotti, they actually use the word to refer to any biscuits…or cookies, not just the twice baked popular long, slightly arched, crunchy […]

If you have been following me on the blog, you would have learnt that I’ve been doing Pilates once a week for the last year.  I love it – and I love the effects it has on the aches and pains that plague me daily.  In fact, because of hamstring stretches et. al. during these […]

You heard me right.  A White Forest Cake.  At least that’s what I’m calling it – it’s actually called a Zuger Kirschtorte – it’s a Swiss styled cake that consists of a nut-meringue, buttercream and cake …oh and of course, Kirschwasser.  That’s right, Kirschwasser – or you may know it simply as Kirsch.  You know […]
