Vanilla Tiramisu [recipe]

02.11.2015

I’ll be honest, I am pretty addicted to anything vanilla. I especially love vanilla lattes and have a small stash of instant coffee sachets in my locker at work. I have managed to incorporate those delicious vanilla lattes into my Vanilla Tiramisu recipe. The great thing about this recipe is …

Coconut Cake with Lime Frosting [recipe]

01.28.2015

I made this Coconut Cake with Lime Frosting for a recent catch up with friends and it was a hit! I have made it before as a gluten-free version (a straight swap from plain flour to gluten free flour turns out perfect). This recipe requires buttermilk. If you are unable …

In my opinion there is no real recipe for trifle. If you want to add lollies or jelly. Cool. If not, that’s cool too. The following is a guideline to what we have been adding into our trifles over the years. The only twist is that instead of the usual …

At the October Brunch Club meet up, hosted by Tuihana Cafe, some of us were chatting while waiting for our food to arrive and there was a mention of cheese and it turned into a cheese fest with a suggestion to have a cheese party (that might have possibly be me?!). So …

Ghost Piñata

10.29.2014

Halloween is only a few days away. While New Zealand doesn’t celebrate to the extent that America does, this doesn’t mean that you can’t have a bit of fun and decorate by making a ghost piñata. I kind of left this to the last minute so I had to come …

Afghans [recipe]

Afghans are a huge favourite that I don’t get to indulge in very often, this could possibly be because I bake so many other yummy items. Try out this Afghans recipe and you’ll never buy store bought ones again, they are that good! This recipe is great to do with kids because it …

Every once and a while I get a craving for something delicious and brownies are usually one of those things.
